Malkasian – The Macabre
Self-released – 2023
Rock, Blues, Psych, Stoner, Country
Rated: ***
A project started many, many moons ago between a bunch of high school friends and one that has finally turned into something that Malkasian decided was good enough to serve to us all. It’s called The Macabre and features ten heavy spirited rock tracks. Reaching Number 22 on the August Doom Charts is perhaps proof that Malkasian was right and that everyone should dig in to this little gem! I is the blues, but all twisted and deranged… Alternative blues, stonerrock noir. Diesel Americana. Fuzz Country. Heavy dark folk. And we could probably come up with some more warped and intwined genres that fits the bill on these ten tracks. But all ten of them are in some way, a heavy offtering of sweet and sour, melancholy campfire songs brought to you by a rocking trio, moody and cumbersome, but Malkasian makes it work and turns their The Macabre in something amiable and almost comforting.
