One of the most talked about new acts emerging from an ever growing and ever thriving UK underground scene, MALEVOLENCE have developed a truly fearsome reputation as one of the tightest, heaviest and most devastating live acts in the UK resulting in shows with the likes of HATEBREED, WHILE SHE SLEEPS, HEART OF A COWARD, NASTY, TERROR, VISION OF DISORDER and THE ACACIA STRAIN. To top it all off, the band has an average age of 19!
Like a bastard hybrid of PANTERA, BIOHAZARD, HATEBREED, LIFE OF AGONY and LAMB OF GOD, MALEVOLENCE’s sound is remarkable in its influences given their youth. Not since STAMPIN’ GROUND has such an exciting Metallic Hardcore hybrid emerged from these shores.
NEVER QUIT THE PIT.

As reported previously by Portuguese extreme progressive metallers MALEVOLENCE has marked the official premiere for the teaser 2012 comprising the very first sounds of ANTITHETICAL at a worldwide level.
This premiere marked as well the first straight partnership of the band with peripheral media partners METAL UNDERGROUND (USA) and INFEKTION MAGAZINE (PORTUGAL) while the first results of such cooperation went way superior to thy expectations.
The teaser 2012 (since yesterday) is available for a running period of 30 days under exclusivity and can be observed by clicking on the following media:
MALEVOLENCE commented: “As with everything we do and have done since 1994 in terms of music commitment and dedication the convergence between the music and sound we are now exposing to the public goes beyond the ordinary static teasers popping around these days. We are always pushing our experiences way further without any kind of restrictions or apprehension! WE as MALEVOLENCE stand proud for doing things differently and we will keep evolving under that perspective in the future!”
Portuguese extreme progressive metallers MALEVOLENCE have set “Antithetical” as the title of their forthcoming third album. The main theme of the CD illustrates a razor-sharp concept inspired from Ancient Greek Etymology (1580s, from Gk. Antithetikos) that reflects the diametrical opposition to a number of propositions consisting in the revelation of a divergent thought. Pertaining to “Antithetical”, the Anti (against) + Thesis (position), as a figure of speech (mainly used by the authors of the Baroque period; style of the epoch known as the art of conflict) acknowledge opposition towards the relative thesis expressed.
Commented MALEVOLENCEsinger/guitarist/songwriter Carlos Cariano: “‘Antithetical’ is loaded with intoxicatingly corrosive contrasts whilst the album represents pure rebellion, a pure nonconformist extension towards the current situation of the globe, an upheaval towards the current language that has no force of expression and no meaning, due to the predictability of words and counterfeit actions that have become commonplace worldwide. Inner strength and living values nowadays are negatively base underneath relative truths and we are expressing ourselves precisely antithetically whilst insisting on critical thinking.”
A press release states: “Music and lyrics are far beyond the average practice and ‘Antithetical’ is a very unnatural progressive slab of extreme sonic amalgamation creating parallelisms to simplify extremes whilst apprehending both the positive and the negative perspectives of existence, in order to erect with the synthesis that transcends both.
As hope is antithetical to despair, the contrasts established within the album serve in effect to give tension to the broad-spectrum body of work consisting of seven songs.
“‘Antithetical’ includes the most epic material (longest song clocking at 9:27), plus the heaviest proportional songwriting ever accomplished on the eighteenth year of existence of the collective.
“Exploring experimental yet instrumental mind bending extreme metal structures, the album is a pure heavy mammoth demonstration on extreme progressive metal territory.”
