MALPRACTICE Continuing Work On New Material

August 26, 2009

MALPRACTICE, the Finnish progressive metal band featuring members of TO/DIE/FOR, MANITOU, OMNIUM GATHERUM and REVERSION, has issued the following update:

"We are currently writing material for our fourth studio album. We have already four full songs written which means about 30 minutes worth of new kick-ass material! The next album is planned for the beginning of 2010. Meanwhile, since the 'Triangular Tour' is over, check out the 'Triangular Tour' diary from our forum. The diary is in English and Finnish. You can also observe how the songwriting process is progressing from the brand new 'Studio Diary 2009' section which is being updated along the way."

MALPRACTICE's third album, "Triangular", was released in March 2008 via Spinefarm Records. The CD was recorded at Astia studio with producer Anssi Kippo and Southeast Sounds in Karhula with Teemu Aalto. It was mixed by Anssi Kippo.

While still progressive and melodic, "Triangular" also saw the return of some of the thrashier elements in MALPRACTICE and combined with the virtuoso skills of the new vocalist Aleksi Parviainen, "Triangular" takes MALPRACTICE to a whole new level of excellence, making the listener think about QUEENSRŸCHE meeting MEGADETH meeting DREAM THEATER. Much like their heroes, MALPRACTICE certainly know their way around different moods and atmospheres, ranging from "Waves"' fragile tranquility to "Triangular"'s instrumental extravaganza and "Symmetry"'s almost poppy choruses.

The making of "Triangular":
