North American tour with Terror & Code Orange starts November 28th / Listen to \”Final Thoughts\” now

Buffalo, NY\’s Malfunction are releasing their debut album for Bridge Nine, Fear of Failure, on November 20th. The band\’s first proper release in three years after touring extensively with the likes of Bane, Turnstile, Backtrack, and Harm\’s Way shows them progressing considerably, adopting a loose and raw yet thoroughly heavy strain aggressively exorcising the demons of personal anxieties and volatile relationships. Listen to \”Final Thoughts\”, the second song to premiere from Fear of Failure, today via Substream Magazine.

Recorded at GCR Recording Studios with Jay Zubricky, mixed by Taylor Young (Nails, Twitching Tongues), and mastered by Paul Leavitt (Turnstile, Darkest Hour), Fear of Failure is a harsh and uncompromising bout of metallic hardcore and marks Malfunction\’s first batch of new material in over two years. Following the album\’s release, Malfunction will embark on a North American tour with Terror, Code Orange and others – see all tour dates below.
