A debut album can be a defining moment for any band, but for seasoned vocalist Vicky Psarakis, it's just another challenge to take head-on. When we last spoke with Vicky in 2022, she was fronting melodic death metal outfit The Agonist while simultaneously developing her nu-metal side project, Sicksense. Following The Agonist's breakup, Vicky fully committed to Sicksense, proving that this may have been her true calling all along.

Now, she returns to IUF to discuss Cross Me Twice, Sicksense’s highly anticipated debut album—a bold fusion of modern metal and electronic elements that brings a fresh energy to the nu-metal resurgence. Despite lineup changes since the band's inception in 2021, Vicky has steered the group forward, solidifying their sound and vision. With over two decades in the industry, a Juno nomination, and an extensive list of guest vocal appearances, her journey is nothing short of inspiring. Tune in now as Vicky shares her story, and be sure to buy and stream Cross Me Twice, out now worldwide via Earache Records.
