Malevolence pack a hell of a lot into just three
tracks. Back with their first release since 2017Æs
Self Supremacy, the Sheffield quintet havenÆt quite
got enough to muster a full-length just yet, but they
make sure every moment they offer up on this EP
counts.
Opening up with the bruising Remain Unbeaten, theyÆre
clearly in the mood for a fight, as a brief
atmospheric intro gives way to burly riffs that crush
everything foolish enough to get in front of them,
with a good helping of winning Pantera-esque swagger
for good measure.
Keep Your Distance is even gnarlier, having a somewhat
sinister air to it as it chugs and stomps along,
before Knocked LooseÆs Bryan Garris shows up to pit
his scream against that of vocalist Alex Taylor. Best,
though, is the title-track; a full-blown metal power
ballad that kicks off in very melancholy mood before
getting huge. Brace for impact when their full-length
finally hits.
