One of the more intricate bands to play Dirt Fest this year is Immoralis, they’re based out of “Murderapolis,” MN, as they describe it.

A relatively younger band that formed in 2010. They just released their first album The Great Collapse. They have a complex fusion of sound that pays homage to traditional metal such as Metallica and Pantera while blending a melodic symphonic sound that reminds the listener of bands such as Dark Tranquility and Insomnium.

They will make their first Michigan appearance this weekend at Dirt Fest, playing alongside fellow Minneapolis bands Blue Felix and Nuisance. Jens gives the lowdown on their excitement hitting the Dirt Fest stage, how the band got its start, the supportive and thriving metal scene back home.
