Metal Shock Finland (World Assault )

Norwegian black metallers MALUM are set to release their next chapter, From the Voids, on the 27^th of March. While firmly rooted in Malum’s established sonic foundation, the album is more aggressive, continuing the confrontational path introduced on Towards Nothingness. It is driven by anger and stands as a ruthless observation of the world as it appears — dark, broken, and hollow.

The first taste of the album is the track “In Gloom II”, is released today and it can be hear here:

The band has this to say about the song:
A sharpened strike of existential black metal — shaped by futility, the void, and the weight of wasted potential. In Gloom II marks the first descent into Malum’s second full-length. The single confronts the listener with a bleak truth and explores the crossroads between resignation and will. The question is no longer whether existence is futile, but whether we choose to shape it in spite of the inevitable decay. The track moves into a more hypnotic and immersive territory, binding Malum’s earliest cold aggression to a darker, more atmospheric sound. Within the collapse lies a renewed willingness to embrace the void with clarity rather than fear.

The forthcoming full length consists of six tracks and does not abandon the band’s core identity but drives it forward with greater force and clarity. Having refined its expression into a cold and faceless descent toward inner collapse and existential void, Malum directs that vision beyond introspection. The music is sharpened to its core, carrying Malum’s bleak vision without compromise. Once again with cover art by Den Unge Herr Holm.

Tracklist:

1. Stare Into Darkness
2. Ignorance Made Bliss
3. In Gloom II
4. Deranged and Depraved
5. Hollow
6. From the Voids

Malum rose from the ashes as a brand-new entity in the Norwegian underground scene. Their prime directive is raw, atmospheric and melodic black metal — with a sound rooted in the bleak traditions of the second wave of black metal and shaped by modern existentialism and nihilism. Malum delivers music that is both oppressive and cathartic and has carved a path through Norway’s underground with raw intensity and philosophical depth.
 
Malum is not merely a band — it is a confrontation. With the self. With silence. With nothingness.

“From the Voids” will be available on CD, Black Vinyl and Limited Edition Black Marble Vinyl (100 copies) and can be pre-ordered here:
