Mallavora are a fierce Bristol alt-metal outfit blazing their way onto the scene, using their platform to demand greater accessibility for disabled artists and fans.
 
As featured on BBC Radio 1, Kerrang! Radio, Planet Rock and in Alternative Press, Mallavora's huge riffs, anthemic choruses and electric energy at their live shows quickly convert rooms full of strangers into buzzing, dedicated fans eager to get their hands on some unique handmade merch.

Mallavora are the winners of the Kerrang! Radio's 'The Deal' competition 2024, securing the opening slot on the Avalanche Stage at Download Festival and a record deal with Marshall Records.

Mallavora released their first single of 2024 "Wake Up" in February
channeling Spiritbox, Skindred and Nova Twins with the 
boppiest metal riff of 2024 and speaking out against transphobia.

Mallavora delivered a blistering show of power and strength in 2023 with their EP ‘Origins’ achieving over 500k Spotify streams, debuts at 2000trees and Dot2Dot festivals, and performing as main support at a sold-out Thekla in Bristol.

 
Mallavora's sound is a visceral kaleidoscopic symphony of influences that spans metal subgenres and incorporates blues, punk and soul elements. Ultimately, Mallavora are doing something different. All are welcome, except for bigots.

Review Quotes:

"Crazy good from Mallavora... Heavy gritty brilliance, I love it"

Nels Hylton [BBC Radio 1]

"Mallavora are using their platform to create an inclusive space in music... the young artists bring together powerful lyrics and intense instrumentals to create tracks that vibrate through your nerves."

Alyssa Quiles [Alternative Press]

“Disorder is a delicious brew of Korn and Halestorm that you never knew you needed: chonky riffs and more bite than a vampire finishing an intermittent fast.

What an actual tune.”


Alec Chillingworth, [Writer, Metal Hammer]

"This is a band that I am absolutely obsessed with, think filthy riffs and disabled rage. You are going to love it"

Sophie Smith [Kerrang! Radio]
