News : New Malignant Monster album due out midyear
“This record will encompass a combination of elements which I believe have become quite rare in extreme music these days. Ugliness and perversion blends with hints of dark soulful, melody – from slow and brooding to manic frenzy. This album echoes morose sensations of real-life horror. We’re creating genuinely evil music with particular attention to dynamics and intensity.” – Cain, vocals
Featuring 12 new tracks, and being released in a limited edition, hand-numbered digipak, Malignant Monster’s new album Yours in Murder has been announced to be coming out in June/July 2012, sold exclusively through the band.
Drummer Louis Rando has already completed all of the drum tracking, with work starting on guitars and bass within the next two weeks. Vocalist Cain Cressall is still finalizing lyrics, and will begin recording at the end of the month. The release will be mixed and mastered by Sverker Widgren of Necromorbus Studios in Stockholm, and engineered by Malignant Monster bassist Dave Sandstrom of Nightwind Studio.
Malignant Monster will be touring nationally in June/July to celebrate the release, and there are plans to shoot a music video for the release as well. The track listing, and recording/touring updates will be released later this month. For now, feast your eyes on their new logo, designed by Christophe Szpajdel…
