4th Studio Album Update
We caught up with Michael Powers of Indianadesolate and asked him for a recent update on how the online heavy metal band is doing on releasing new music for the fans, here is his reply. "I know it has been a long while since I have touched base with a lot of fans, so I hope I can make up for not keeping in touch with them. We have been busy writing and laying out so far, 3 really fantastic songs for the fans of Indianadesolate. One of those songs is a remastered version of one of the singles from our third album. I am not at liberty to say which song it is yet, but I will make an announcement as to when we will be releasing the remaster when it is the correct time. We will release that song hopefully really soon to give our fans something to hopefully, tide them over while they wait for this album to finish. Our lead singer Mattia while production was going on during this album wanted a chance to have his friend use their studio, Matt Orion studios to start mastering the album, which in a way is a good thing, as it takes a little bit of the work load off of our producer Matt Brett's shoulders. So far they at Matt Orion studio have done an outstanding job of mastering the first 3 songs of the new album, and I am glad they are doing the job. I had a fantastic idea of the 4th album cover concept. The album artwork is almost finished and I am hoping it turns out really well, and captures what thought I was trying to convey with the main theme for this new album. I can say I found a great song chorus for this album just by looking at the shower curtain in my bathroom, and the song so far is one of our best songs to date. Our lead singer, Mattia and I love the song. It is really good. I will give more details later on how I thought of the idea, by looking at the design of the shower curtain. It goes to show, that as a artist you never know when, or even where a song inspiration will strike lol. Even if it is in the restroom lol! I had some problems earlier with the bands facebook page, and a email account of mine. As while I was holding my cell phone in my hand, it was almost like the thing was hacked. As without me doing anything, it shut off and completely did a factory reset on my cell phone. It even wiped the SD card my music I listen to was on, It was crazy. Then, I lost control of the bands facebook page, and the email to that page. It was crazy. Thanks to a great couple of friends I was able to regain access to the accounts again thank goodness."

A new studio update
We recently caught up with Michael Powers of Indianadesolate, and asked him how things are going in the studio, with the recording of the 4th studio album of Indianadesolate, here is his reply. "We certainly have been busy in the studio, in every aspect of putting an outstanding 4th album together for the fans. I am trying to have 12 tracks on this album so it will take longer than our third album. I am attempting to have the album release date of October 31st 2023, if we can do that. We are almost half way done with the 6th song being sang and mastered by our singer Mattia Brignoli and Matt Orions help at Matt Orion studios. It all depends on finances to get the songs created, and done in time for a first single release of early September of 2023. As I would like to have the first single out by early September if we can do that, and have the album come out for Halloween this year. I am hoping it is possible, as I still have things to take care of. I want to set up another interview with Viviana Dragani of the Boston radio show called Italiecho, as it gives fans a chance to hear the first single, and our singer is also from Italy as well. So it gives both the Italian community and the American communities a chance to come together for a united cause. It gives us a chance to spread the word about the new album, and Viviana does great on the interviews for the new albums. It is something that I would like to do again. I still also need to get the first single with at least a month worth of radio airtime on www.radiorockon.com as it is such a great song for the opening of the album as well. So in the next few months, I will be super busy putting together the rest of the songs, and working out the details of the final release of the first single of the album as well. The studio time is going well, and I am so proud of the fantastic work done by everyone involved. I am so thankful to the rest of the guys that are helping make these song ideas, and visions be brought forth in a great way for the fans of hard rock and heavy metal music. I couldnt be more proud of everyones help, and the effort of labor and love they have put together. Especially, since they did not write the lyrics, and it takes a certain belief in a person to work, and dedicate your hard work to the ideas and concepts that my heart speaks from when I write lyrics for these songs. I am very appreciative and thankful of the trust, and vote of confidence that these other men have placed in me to set a good example for the group Indianadesolate. As I always try to remember first, that I am setting a example wherever I go. I am not only representing myself, but also the band members and fans, friends, and family of Indianadesolate as well. I feel that so far, I have done a good job in setting a good example for others to see. Also, that there can be hope for the underdogs within the underground heavy metal community. So, I certainly do hope that I can be a inspiration to other future generations as well, so that they can also be a beacon of light in a dark and dying world."
