MALEVOLENT CREATION Premiere ‘Release The Soul’ Music Video
January 23rd, 2019

American death metal band Malevolent Creation have filmed a music video for the track ‘Release The Soul’, which can be viewed below.

Malevolent Creation issued 13th full-length studio album The 13th Beast on January 18th, 2019 through Century Media Records.

The 13th Beast marks the first Malevolent Creation album to feature new members Lee Wollenschlaeger (vocals and guitar), Josh Gibbs (bass) and Phil Cancilla (drums), who join co-founder and guitarist Phil Fasciana.

“This is the biggest honour I could ever be given,” commented frontman Lee Wollenschlaeger. “The opportunity to front one of my all-time favourite bands, and an even bigger pleasure of jamming with such great people.

“We have created one of the most relentless albums of Malevolent Creation’s history. As a fan, I know we are going to shock a lot of people at how intense this new album is. Done in a way only Malevolent Creation can.

“I can’t wait to see all you guys on the road in 2019 and beyond, playing songs from all the albums, including our new album, The 13th Beast!”

“Lee was the missing link when I was searching for a new vocalist and guitarist,” added Phil Fasciana. “Each new member is a solid musician and songwriter sharing the same passion for extreme music Malevolent Creation has been striving for since 1987.

“I’m very proud of this album and look forward to present it live as well as songs from our massive back catalog including stuff that hasn’t been played live in a long time or ever.”

The outing was mixed and mastered by Dan Swanö at Unisound Studio in Örebro, Sweden.

Cover artwork was created by German Latorres.
