Watch “It Haunts” HERE: https://youtu.be/G7FS_0pV0tU

Atlanta blackened thrash visionaries MALEFIC have unveiled their first single, “It Haunts” and are set to unleash their debut album, Impermanence, via Terminus Hate City on February 13th, 2026. “It Haunts” introduces the band with their signature intricate harmonies and deft guitar work, dragging the listener deep into the blackened abyss they have carved. Fierce vocals tell a fittingly haunting tale about a mystery of a supernatural nature, and an epic guitar solo commands rapt attention. The song closes with ghostly arpeggios, leaving the listener shrouded in gloom and contemplating the unknowable. 

MALEFIC lineup:
Jason Davila – Guitar
Aaron Baumoel – Drums, Vocals
Sam Williams – Guitar
Andy McGraw – Bass

Track Listing: 
1. Blood Of The Throne  
2. In Darkest Dreams 
3. Of Gods And Man  
4. Idiocracy
5. Deserter
6. Disembodiment
7. Obsidian Earth
8. Echoes Of Silence
9. It Haunts 

About MALEFIC:
MALEFIC roared onto the Atlanta metal scene in 2007 with ambitions to modernize the black metal genre. With their tight riffs, tasty leads, and relatable lyricism, MALEFIC abandons cliches and defies traditional genre boundaries. Their special blend of black metal, drawing from thrash and death metal influences, appeals to metalheads across subgenres.

They count OLD MAN’S CHILD, CARCASS, TESTAMENT, DISSECTION, and OPETH among their most prominent influences, offering a fresh, modern take on metal that is unrivaled in the United States.

Though they are set to release their very first full-length album, Impermanence, in 2026, MALEFIC boasts an impressive live performance history, having played shows with notable bands such as 1349, CRYPTA, and PROFANATICA. After a hiatus in 2009, the band eagerly picked back up where they left off and reformed with a new lineup.

MALEFIC initially began work on Impermanence in 2018, taking their time to ensure that every detail accurately reflected their vision for their album. The band’s hard work and dedication has culminated in a powerful debut, lovingly crafted by fans of nuanced, boundary-pushing music.
