Mavrin (Russian band)
Mavrin, formerly known as Mavrik, is a Russian Heavy [metal music|heavy]/progressive metal band formed and led by former Aria guitarist Sergey Mavrin.
Foundation of Mavrin
In 1997, Sergey offered to Kipelov to record together the combined album, which might include their songs which were refused by Aria or did not fit into Aria's style. In 1997 they released the LP entitled Kipelov and Mavrin - Smutnoye Vremia.In 2000, the band released Neformat-1, which took the hard rock sound of Skitaletz in a more experimental direction.
During the recording of the third album, Himichesky Son, Artur Berkut often failed to show up in studio, and finally, Sergey had to fire him.
Back to Mavrin
In 2004 Sergey Mavrin reunited his own band. Artem Styrov decided to come back, though Harkov stayed with Kipelov. Alexander Shwetz from the Russian band Nephilim became the new bass player. Mavrin and his band participated in Aria's twentieth-anniversary gig and the bands toured together in Ukraine in the winter of 2005. After it, Mavrin released a new album Otkrovenie.Band members
