The interview was done at Hammerfest IV last month.
You can listen to this interview on soundcloud player below:
Indigo DarkPsych is fronted by Marvic ‘Indigo’ Lewis. Originally known as Indigo, in November 2003 Marvic released her first single ‘Washed Away’ on radio, and in July 2004 released ‘Struck’. They both turned out to be hits, and in fact she was nominated as a best solo artist in the Bay Music Awards 2004. This inspired her as Indigo to continue writing and developing that same style, until she concluded a whole album under the name of ‘STRUCK’. That album being an awesome slab of Alternative Hard Rock with subtle touches of Electronica, and stacks of melody. Her second release ‘These Are The Roots’ is a heavier, more metallic sound, but maintaining the melodic sensibility that was so apparent in her debut release. Marvic co-wrote and co produced the 2nd album and was responsible for the album artwork.
1. Hello, Marvic Lewis or rather Indigo DarkPsych 🙂 I’m Kostya, Welcome to MSF!
Hi Kostya! You can call me Indigo, its my stage name/nick name!! 😉

“WE COULD CALL THEM THE ‘METAL JOKERS” was the reaction of some of Metal Shock Finland‘s members after listening to this interview. You can listen to the whole of this conversation on Soundcloud player below:

Video highlights of MORTAD‘s performance at this year’s Hammerfest, which was held March 15-18, 2012 in Prestatyn, North Wales, can be seen below:
As previously posted, MORTAD will enter the studio in November with producer Russ Russell (NAPALM DEATH, DIMMU BORGIR, EVILE) to begin recording its sophomore album for a 2013 release.
MORTAD‘s debut CD, “The Myth Of Purity”, was made available last month with the February 2012 issue of Metal Hammer magazine and will receive a more “official” release later in the year. The album was recorded last October with Russ Russell.
MORTAD was formed in 2009 by Iranian vocalist Somi Arian , whose lyrics take aim at the hypocrisy of religion and the government as well as seeking inner truth and strength in the face of such oppression.
MORTAD released a music video and an EP, entitled “Pandemic Paranoia”, in early 2011. This effort brought the band immense attention on the social media sites, placing the group as the No. 1 metal band on ReverbNation London metal chart, and attracting over 40,000 Facebook fans.
MORTAD‘s “Waste Of My Rage” video was sponsored by the Alchemy apparel clothing brand and produced by the Manchester-based video production company Video Ink. More than a dozen actors were cast for the clip, including Collette Von Tora, who agreed to have her head shaved for this video shoot.

Some days ago MSFinland‘s Kostya Aronberg had a change to chat with the vocalist Fabio Schneider…
1. Hey, Fabio, welcome to Metal Shock Finland.
Hi Kostya! Nice to hear from you!
2. Dreadnox has a unique history. Can you, please, tell us a bit about what happened in the 90’s, when the band was formed?
On the October, we participated at a School party music show but our band had no name. I chose Dreadnox because a friend of mine used to sketch some cartoon aliens with this name. We won the contest so then we decided to keep Dreadnox as the name of the band.
