Some bands don’t ease you into their world — they hit you head-on, like a blunt force you can’t escape. That’s exactly what Malevolence have built their reputation on: a crushing hybrid of metalcore, hardcore and groove that feels as physical as it sounds. This spring, the Sheffield powerhouse returns to Madrid as part of their If It’s All The Spain In You Tour 2026, ready to turn Sala Copérnico into a pressure cooker of riffs, sweat and unfiltered intensity.

Riding high on their latest album Where Only The Truth Is Spoken, Malevolence have firmly stepped out of the underground and into the spotlight, earning global recognition for a sound that balances raw aggression with razor-sharp precision. Their live shows have become synonymous with pure kinetic energy — a collision of breakdowns, groove-heavy riffs and crowd interaction that feels closer to controlled chaos than performance.

The May 28th stop in Madrid is set to capture that intensity at its most immediate. In the tight confines of Copérnico, there’s no distance between band and audience — just bodies moving, voices shouting, and a shared pulse driven by relentless rhythm. Expect a set that dives deep into their catalogue while pushing their newer material to its full, devastating potential.

And the night won’t hold back from the start. Belgian hardcore force Nasty joins the tour, bringing their own brand of uncompromising heaviness and confrontational energy, while Madrid’s own Brothers Till We Die add a local surge of metallic hardcore that ensures the evening begins at full throttle and never lets up.
