MALOTA - Albumankündigung mit Album Teaser
Italian outfit MALOTA has officially announced their brand new album, "Scapegoat", set to be released on October 10 via Go Down Records.
In anticipation of the release, the band has also shared a first album teaser, which you can watch below.
"Scapegoat" marks MALOTA’s sophomore studio album, with its title evoking the imagery of a sacrificial lamb. This concept symbolizes the degradation permeating our world, the anguish born from hatred and fanaticism, and the profound fear of isolation. In this new chapter, the band takes a distinct sonic turn. Rhythms are described as slowing to a menacing crawl, melodies become darker and more foreboding, and the vocals carve out a raw, visceral space filled with screams and despair. The rock influences prominent in their earlier work are set aside in favor of a metallic, gritty, and monolithic sound, characterized by tension and an unyielding, uncompromising edge.
The album’s striking cover features a woman locking eyes with the viewer, her silent gaze heavy with judgment. She embodies all those who have suffered - and continue to suffer - at the hands of ignorance, cruelty, and a toxic culture shaped by a male-dominated world. With "Scapegoat", MALOTA delves deep into the intricacies of human relationships and the pervasive anxiety of facing an uncertain future. The album reflects on the violence of conflicts, both past and present, channeling a profound sense of unease and disillusionment with contemporary society.
