Malevolence

MALEVOLENCE have released a brand new video to accompany album highlight 'Higher Place'. Showing off their creative breadth, the single breaks with their usual aggressive metal swagger. 'Higher Place' is a show stopping, southern groove flavoured ballad.

Front-man Alex Taylor commented,
"Higher Place focuses on a subject which everyone will deal with at some point in loss; death/bereavement. This is one most heartfelt songs we have written as a band, however once we began writing this song, it came together very naturally. This song is a huge step outside our comfort zone, we hope you enjoy it! The visuals for this song was our first venture into a narrative driven video, filmed in our hometown of Sheffield. We worked closely with Enon Films to bring the concept to life.

Video Director Gabriel Fernández-Gil commented,
"The song inspired sorrow, drama, and a dark epicness, which is what guided us in the making of this video. In the story you'll be able to identify themes of loss, revenge, and UK's knife-crime epidemic. As the lyrics and instrumentation, our characters "ascend" to different metaphorical planes of existence, or lack thereof."

To accompany the video, the band have released an alternative acoustic version of 'Higher Place' digitally, giving fans yet another glimpse into Malevolence's bottomless artistic flair
