Raining Pleasure
Greece’s most successful English-speaking band of the past few decades, Raining Pleasure, has carved out a unique path in the country’s music scene. Following a period away from the spotlight, frontman Vassilikos, X-Jeremy on guitars, and Jay on drums announced their reunion in 2024, returning to remind us why they became one of the leading acts in Greek pop and indie/alternative rock scenes.
Hailing from Patras, the band immediately made waves with its debut album, Memory Comes Back (1996), a record of autumnal tones and delicate sensibility that was completely in sync with the indie and alternative sounds of the era. Five more albums have followed, achieving both commercial success and critical acclaim in Greece and abroad. Songs like “Capricorn,” “Fake,” and “Love Me, Love Me, Love Me,” as well as their unique cover of ABBA’s “Dancing Queen” remain unforgettable and are still widely on rotation today. A landmark moment in their career came with Reflections (2004), a deeply evocative reimagining of Manos Hadjidakis’ legendary album, which cemented their bond with Greek audiences.
