Malveillance full-length "Just Fuck Off" cd (Industry001)
Cooperation with Suffering Jesus (Canada) + Sabbathid (Japan)
To put it simply, Malveillance d-beat through 22 song of hypnotic and fierce d-beat black metal from Quebec.
Awfully catchy, and definitely quality material from this black metal kraut band with hypnotic, trance-like drum beats, with razor sharped guitars and intense vocals.
Aquarius Records said the following about the release :
"We love us our twisted, serpentine, ultra complex black metal, the weirder and more demented the better, truly wacked stuff. We love it epic and majestic, sludgy and creepy, but sometimes you just want it simple. Stripped down and furious. A single riff played over and over. A blasting drum beat that just bores full speed ahead.
Thus we have France's Malveillance, who manage to take what could be boring and generic and turns it into something fierce and fucked up and kind of frightening. We're beginning to think the French are to black metal, what the Japanese are to pretty much all other music. Whatever it is, twee pop, space rock, take a Japanese band and they can do it better and weirder. Same with France and black metal. Grim buzzing blackness? Find some weird French guy and he can make it sound like a black metal My Bloody Valentine or a blast of barbed white noise. Give them some simple punky black metal and they can turn it into a black spiked juggernaut foaming at the mouth, furiously trampling everything in its path. Malveillance are just that, although not exactly French, more sort of French Canadian, but still simple, punky, D-beat black metal, but infused with such fury that it becomes a droning black beast. It helps that every song is in the same key and played at the same tempo. It's like one hour long song split into 22 parts, or the exact same song played 22 times in a row. Totally repetitive and hypnotic and so mesmerizing. Ultimate black bliss achieved through pummel and repetition!!
Plus how can you resist a record called Just Fuck Off, with a record cover of some guy in the shadows giving us the bird, with a note inside to the listener that says: "Just Fuck Off... yeah yeah of course but keep one thing in mind; this "fuck off" is for all misanthropic losers holding this cd."
(Note: Malveillance is from Quebec City, NOT France.)
