We've partnered with BrooklynVegan to premiere a stream of Malfunction's forthcoming debut album,Fear in Failure, in full. Check out what they had to say:
"...it pulls from the kind of hardcore/metalcore their hometown area of upstate NY has been churning out for the past two decades. It's something you could picture coming out on Victory before that label went totally mall-core (they've got the chug of Earth Crisis' "Firestorm" on track one, "Drained"). Malfunction change it up too, like when they go borderline post-rock on "Sonic." It's a good record."
Fear of Failure is out this Friday, November 20. Pre-order a copy at B9Store.com and check out the band on tour with Terror and Code Orange starting at the end of this month.
