Product Details & Size Guide
Bring a chapter of Athens music history to your everyday drinkware with this Virus Music pint glass. Founded in 2004 as an imprint of independent company Legend Recordings, Virus Music set out to develop new and young performers in a changing Greek music scene. Its story connects the label’s launch under Miltos Karadsas with a parent company established in 1994. A thoughtful choice for label-history collectors, music fans, or anyone who enjoys a conversation-starting glass at home.
Virus Music was founded in 2004 as a record-label imprint of Legend Recordings S.A., an independent Greek record company based in Athens. At launch, the imprint was headed by Miltos Karadsas, formerly managing director of Minos EMI. Drawing on his earlier work helping foster the independent Greek company Nitro Music, Karadsas developed Virus Music to compete with multinational labels gaining influence in the Greek market. The imprint emphasized artist development and signed new and young performers of the period, including Apostolia Zoi and Annet Artani. Although Virus Music was new to the Greek music industry, its parent company had been a prominent independent label across genres since 1994. Legend Recordings was owned by Modern Times, known in Greek as Μοντέρνοι Καιροί, which was described as one of Greece’s largest media companies at the time. In 2011, Modern Times owner Kostas Giannikos was arrested and convicted on embezzlement charges. The resulting circumstances led eventually to the label’s closure, marking the end of Virus Music’s place in the Greek independent-label landscape.
A sturdy 16oz pint glass that brings a little roadhouse spirit to everyday pours. The clear tempered glass showcases whatever you fill it with — amber beer, cold brew, or fresh juice — while a bold vintage-inspired script wraps the side for a subtle, nostalgic touch. It feels solid in the hand, resists everyday wear, and pairs easily with bar carts, kitchen counters, or a laid-back backyard table. Wash gently by hand to keep the lettering sharp and the glass crystal-clear. Built from tempered materials and assembled in the USA, this glass fits into evenings spent swapping stories, weekend morning routines, or those slow, quiet moments when a simple drink matters.
