The following video is one of those “Dexter”-inspired, hence embedded below the text. Viewers discretion is advised, heh.
According to press release, M∀ЯY MAGD∀LAN are a high energy hybrid band made up of three passionate and extreme people who literally live for their music. Fronted by the elusive Mary Magdalan the band represents an outlet for her former self; from junkie to rock star, this band is, allegedly, ready to open a vein for you in an attempt to help you understand yourself and to understand them. Phew! MARY MAGDALAN are more than just a band; they claim to be an eye opener, a source to be reckoned with and are ready to show you just how music can turn your life around. In an interview KikAxe Music conducted with the singer earlier this year, Mary Magdalan described band's music stile as “anti-genre”: “As far as I’m concerned, genres have ruined music. Once they were able to categorize music as it sounds like this or it sounds like that, it became shit. A bunch of bands that sound like a bunch of other bands. Absolute shit. So I just say ‘fuck your genre’. Be original. That’s what we have done since day one.” She and producer Gzus met through a mutual friend about four years ago and “ended up being really good drug buddies”. Eventually, having to decide between music and drugs, they chose the former: “We took all of our sober anxiety and applied that to our songs. Then we hooked up with Jizm [guitarist].” The band recorded a few demos and posted them on their MySpace page; following the encouraging response by fans, the band decided to record an album, ‘Pity Girl’.
‘The Dark Passenger’ is taken from MARY MAGDALAN's wildly successful double album ‘R.I.P.’ which sold over 10,000 units with no label or distributor via band's own imprint Smack Records. The video was directed by DJ Ray (aka Gzus) and Valerie Babayan.
