Italian black metal maniacs MALAURIU are finally back with their third full-length, “The Third Nail”, dropping April 3rd, 2026 via Adirondack Black Mass, and No Clean Singing is hosting the exclusive premiere.
The album tears through nine tracks of unhinged, punk-infused black metal, including a savage, spit-in-your-face cover of GG Allin’s infamous “Abuse Myself I Wanna Die”.
MALAURIU take the nihilistic chaos of their original sound and twist it into something darker, denser and infinitely more abrasive, fusing black metal ferocity with the raw, primitive spirit of punk in a way that only they can.
Stream “The Third Nail” at THIS LOCATION.

Recorded between Italy and the UK from 2024 to 2025, “The Third Nail” is the result of over a decade of dedication to the rawest and most primitive essence of black metal. The album features eight original tracks alongside a ferocious cover of GG Allin, which further highlights the band’s punk attitude and includes guest appearances by Dr. Heathen Scum (Mentors, USA) and Diego Do’Urden (Mystifier).
The album’s artwork draws on Sicilian traditions where the sacred and the profane collide, from blood-stained processions to brutal reenactments of the Crucifixion, creating a ritualistic atmosphere where faith is intertwined with horror, gore, and the occult.
Mixing was handled by Carlo Altobelli at Toxic Basement Studio (Italy), a recognized figure in extreme underground production, while mastering was completed at Necromorbus Studio (Sweden), famed for work with acts like Mayhem, Watain, Funeral Mist, and Shining.
Now based in London, UK, with a solid live lineup, MALAURIU will bring “The Third Nail” to stages across Europe in 2026, delivering a live experience that amplifies the album’s dark intensity and ritualistic energy.

Founded in 2013 by Schizoid, MALAURIU emerged from Sicily as a project deeply rooted in folklore, mysticism, and the occult. Over the years, the band evolved from a pure black metal project into a constantly shifting entity, exploring dark ambient, ritual, noise, and punk, while maintaining a consistent spiritual intensity.
Sicily’s dark, evocative landscapes – ancient temples, legends of monsters, and sites connected to Aleister Crowley’s Abbey of Thelema – have profoundly influenced the band’s vision. With over 20 releases in the past decade, MALAURIU has steadily built a reputation for uncompromising music, blending extreme aggression with atmospheric depth, offering listeners a journey into the darker corners of the mind and soul.
