The Downbeat Podcast - Malevolence

I sat down with Wilkie and Josh from Malevolence to talk about the history of their band, what Sleep Token look like, 140bpm Sheffield bassline and also about their new album Malicious Intent (out May 20th). Their dream festival is a real party.

"So I checked Creed out and they're fucking amazing" Nearly shat from laughing

[@BurnTheNuance]

I had the pleasure of seeing TBDM several times over the years and got to meet Trevor on a couple occasions. From my experience the guys who show the brightest persona on the outside are typically the ones who hurt the most. Truly a loss for the metal community. Like you said Craig we're all hurting and most of us just learn to cope with those emotions. On a brighter note I can't wait to delve into this. I listen to every episode that gets posted to Spotify, but seeing the lads is a whole other experience. I know we don't know each other, and I won't make some long over drawn "flowery" response, but just know you are appreciated by many in the community. I know it doesn't amount to much hearing that from a stranger, but there it is. Trevor was a huge inspiration for me as a metal head, you're a huge inspiration too me as a drummer. Cheers.

[@tombuchborn]

RIP Trevor! What an insane legacy he (and the rest of the band of course) build. Forever one of the best to do it!

[@Chase_Ryan]

RIP to Trevor 😞

[@Jorgetime]

Had no ideia you were in all of those bands, I was listening to you for 10 years and saw you live (with BWP) and never realised lmao

[@zombiesateourchannel]

What language are they speaking? Just kidding. Loved that episode! Like all the other ones... Craig, you are a gem!

[@chrisworland7754]

Vessel's identity has been leaked, some geezer found old youtube videos of him performing before sleep token

[@alanbryantvlogs-9635]

I'm down for the fast lane mosh area in the festival 🤣

[@dancz6342]

[@chris_lampard]

Shout out to Foster. Top level legend. 🤘🏻

[@rick-rackcadillac]

Great bant sesh.

[@lucashance6420]

Fairly convinced that vessel is Leo Faulkner lol

[@diotcorpse]

you guys awesome

[@Nwing2365]

Great episode, have you tried getting Will Ramos on the podcast?

[@tuckerbrown9334]

"Give me another Knocked Loose" YES. No one is ripping Brian off, but I feel like he kinda rips off the singer from The Warriors. Not complaining at all

[@kieranxleigh]

siiickkkk!

I was today years old when I learned Craig was the same guy who temporarily replaced Marc Richards on drums in bwp. That 2014 record sucked though.

[@sarumadaki]

Nah it was nice, just not what you'd expect from them. Definitely had that sludgy feeling.

[@therootofallevil_1348]

@@sarumadaki I dunno man. In Dark Places was way better and easily their best work. That was what they should have put out after Scatter The Ashes. BWP Is Marc and Nick.

[@stuffbyaaron1811]

@@therootofallevil_1348 I've got 'Root of all evil' as my personal favourite. Might have been because of the time it came out; prancing round in a BWP balaclava without a care in the world haha!

[@therootofallevil_1348]

@@stuffbyaaron1811 Love that record homie!

[@rorz999]

Never rated BWP personally but I don't think I checked anything after their 2012 album. I'll give their newer stuff a spin

[@gabehorn52]

It's wild how the bass player (the chav looking dude in the middle) doesn't even like metal and is just in the band for money.
