MALEVOLENT CREATION: We Are Working On 'The Fastest Album We Have Ever Written'
September 24, 2008Guitarist Phil Fasciana of the long-running Florida extreme metallers MALEVOLENT CREATION has issued the following update:
"I know it has been some time since we have said much or updated things lately,but finally there are European tour dates posted on our MySpace page and there are more coming!!!!! Also, after much consideration and long talks between the three original bandmembers of MALEVOLENT CREATION (Brett Hoffmann - vokills; Jason Blachowicz - bass; Phil Fasciana - lead guitar) we have to decided to stop fucking around!!!! Just like all bands, we to have had our share of personal problems that have delayed things a bit. But we have to decided to continue touring around the world and after we return from our headlining tour of Europe with support from the mighty VITAL REMAINS and our friends from Florida WYKKED WYTCH in December, we will start the pre-production for a shitload of new MALEVOLENT CREATION songs for our 11th full-length studio release. We are also going to re record some songs from our third CD, 'Stillborn', and also record some very cool cover songs from some of our favorite bands when we were little metalheads. Of course, there will be no suprises or weak material involved with these recording sessions and we are seriously talking about writing the fastest album we have ever written. I know all our CDs have a lot of fast songs, but this time i think we really need to let loose and just kick some serious ass.
"Not many bands have had the opportunity to have been around as long as we have, and everything could end at anytime. So before we decide to throw in the towel, we are gonna throw down the hardest MALEVOLENT CREATION album possible!!!!! The songs we have already started writing are so fast and brutal that we don't want to mess with energy we have already created.
"Look for us on tour starting on Halloween, October 31st in Holland and throughout Europe in all of November.
"Also, we have two new releases that are in stores and online now for sale. We have the double DVD titled 'The Lost Commandments', which features two ripping live shows from us headlining the killer Party.San Open Air Festival 2007 in Bad Berka, Germany and also a gig we played with the legendary kings of Bay Area thrash EXODUS from Paris, France in 2004. The second release is a bit of a rarity which is titled MALEVOLENT CREATON 'Live At The Whisky A Go Go', recorded in 1999 on 'The Fine Art Of Murder' U.S. tour shortly before we were arrested in Little Rock, Arkansas as we were passing through on our bus. It was four days of hell that none of us will ever forget!!!! So look for more action from MALEVOLENT CREATION soon and in the future!!"

The CD was recorded and engineered at Mercury Recording Studios in Pompano Beach, Florida by longtime friend and producer (and sometimes session member) Gus Rios, and is said to be the most diverse MALEVOLENT CREATION album recorded to date and "without a doubt their fastest!!" Mick Thomson, guitarist for SLIPKNOT, contributed a "ripping" guitar solo to the song "Deliver My Enemy".
