Malevolent Creation (1990-present): a Death Metal band from Buffalo, New York, USA.

elocating to California from Buffalo, N.Y. soon after their founding, Malevolent Creation secured a deal with 'R.C Records' under the management of Bret Hoffman (vocals), Phil Fasciana (guitar), Jeff Juskiewicz (guitar), Jason Blacowicz (bass) and Mark Simpson (drums).

Malevolent Creation's brand of death metal was a blistering ear shredding hurricane that would soon after their debut and sophomore efforts The Ten Commandments (1991) and Retribution (1992) attract the attention of 'Roadrunner Records' to release Stillborn (1993) featuring Job Rubin replacing Rob Barrett (ex-Solstice; guitar) who had joined with Alex Marquez (ex-Solstice; drums) who in turn had replaced Juskiewicz and Simpson respectively.

Their tenure with 'Roadrunner' would end now, as would Hoffman's and Marquez who were replaced with John Paul Soares (guitar) and Derek Roddy (ex-Nile/ex-Hate Eternal; drums) respectively with Blachowicznow taking over the vocal duties. Eternal (1996), featuring an improved and more subtly complex music, was released on independent label 'Pavement'.
