| Profile: | Malhavoc was one of the first bands to play noisy music that had the same aggressivity as death or good trash metal. When they started out, big names in industrial music had a new-wave/techno approach, but Malhavoc chose to fuse some of the techno elements with death/trash metal. That was 15 years ago, they haven't stopped evolving since. Today they have a whole different sound that is different, light-years away from anything else. Since the bands inception in 1983, they have released 4 albums worldwide and 2 EP's including 'Get Down' that reached #8 in Billboard alternative charts and was also Juno nominated. Malhavoc comprises Jimi LaMort (aka James Cavalluzzo) who is also known for his considerable production assistance with bands such as Tool, Voivod, and Motley Crue. He hosts a weekly radio show called 'Dark Harmonies' on CIUT and also DJ's at Toronto's longest running weekly electroclash night 'Electrocute' at Lava Lounge. The current Malhavoc line-up also includes infamous rock producer Rob Sanzo from Signal to Noise studios and Lee "Sick Dog" McCormack from the band Moon Violet. |
