The band was formed in the spring of 2008. In that time it was called Odium and appeared to be a studio project, consisting of 2 members: Sigmund (vocals,guitars,bass) and Cosmic Drone (keyboards). They recorded demo “Decay”, that included 3 songs, the demo has got lots of positive opinions and after that musicians were looked for, and after successful search in autumn 2008, the band was given its
actual name . The band’s debute concert was given on December,19,2008, and not long before that, the first Inner Missing EP “All the lifeless” was recorded. Denis Devichenskiy (Black Studio) was in charge for recording and mixing and mastering was performed by Dmitri Artaulin (Sunrise studio). The EP was released by Russian independent lable Satanarsa Records in March, 2009. For the album’s approval several concert were given in Saint-Peterburg and Moscow, among them concerts with such bands as Ordog, Throes Of Dawn and Misanthrope Count Mercyful. In summer 2009 Inner Missing took part in Metal Crowd Festival (Rechsitsa, Belarus), where played one one stage with
such bands as Forest Stream (Msk), Disease (Latvia), Demogorgon (Pl) and some other european bands. In autumn 2009 the band participated in the biggest doom metal festival in Russia - Shadow doom fest, where it shared the stage with Wine From Tears and The Morningside. After that, Inner Missing records its first full-length album ‘’The Age Of Silence”. In spring 2010 Inner Missing supports Katatonia in its russian gigs and right after the tour which included such cities as Kazan and Vologda, the band records its second album "Escapism" which is characterized as a more "gothic" release than the debute album. Also, the band performs a live show in Minsk, Belarus with Saturnus. In 2012 Inner Missing shares the stage with My Dying Bride and takes part in some local festivals. The third (and also the most succesful) album, "Perjury", was recorded in 2013. Like all previous albums, it was released by Darknagar Records ang it has got high marks in many webzines. Then, during 2013 the band undergoes a lot of line-up troubles and finally records "Defeat" as a duet (Sigmund - voice and guitars and Melaer - keyboards) - this album demonstrated that the band's style has turned to atmospheric\depressive rock and since 2013 the band exists as a duo (although session musicians are recruited for studio work and live shows). In 2014 Inner Missing supports Saturnus during their russian shows and then takes a short break during which both band members play in a progressive rock\metal band Karma Rassa. After the break "The Sentinel And The Murderer" was recorded in cooperation with well-known Ukrainian sound producer Max Morton (he also recorded bass for this album). Supporting this album, Inner Missing performs live shows in Ukraine (at Kiev Kills Festival), Egypt (at Metal Blast Festival), and Romania (at Rock'n'Iasi festival)
