Malice

Malice is an American heavy metal band that was formed in Portland, Oregon in the early 1980s. The band is known for their traditional heavy metal sound, which was particularly popular during the 1980s. They were often compared to bands like Judas Priest and Accept, due to their similar style and vocal approach. Malice released their debut album "In the Beginning..." in 1985, which garnered attention from metal fans and critics alike. The follow-up album, "License to Kill," came out in 1987 and continued to build on their reputation for powerful riffs and soaring vocals. Despite never achieving the same level of commercial success as some of their contemporaries, Malice has maintained a cult following over the years. The band has gone through several lineup changes throughout its career and has had periods of inactivity. They made a comeback in the 2000s and released new material, including the album "New Breed of Godz" in 2012.
