Very stoked to let you all know we are partnering up with the mighty Grindhead Records to deliver Malignant Aura’s second album and follow up to 2022’s seismic debut ‘Abyssmal Fortune is Draped upon me’.
Expect more crushing, sorrowful death//Doom building off the legacy of Aussie bands like Disembowelment and Cruciform and contemporary kings like Mourneful Congregation and Illimitable Dolour.

Lokk out for the CD version from Spanish underground label Memento Lori

In our endless quest to push and support current underground acts that perpetuate the odor of vintage Death Metal, we're extremely thrilled to announce a new signing: Malignant Aura, from Australia.

Crawling from beneath the bloody earth in 2022, Malignant Aura gathered widespread accolade for with their debut full-length, titled "Abysmal Misfortune is Draped Upon Me". Their sorrowful melodies and crushing riffs forged brutally authentic live shows, captivating audiences across Australia alongside genre stalwarts like Esoteric and Mournful Congregation. Now, the band lurches forward, preparing to unearth their second album, a full-length descent into the depths of human despair and a harrowing blend of Death and Doom: vicious, somber and triumphant. Malignant Aura's brand of tortured and lumbering Death/Doom Metal bridges modern and classic sounds, drawing inspiration from Incantation, Paradise Lost, Virgin Black, Hooded Menace, Mournful Congregation, Candlemass, Disembowelment, Pallbearer, Katatonia, Asphyx and My Dying Bride.

Memento Mori will release the CD version of Malignant Aura's sophomore full-length on January 26th, 2026, whereas Grindhead Records and Primitive Moth Records will release the LP version by mid February. Further details to be unveiled in the coming weeks. Meanwhile, make sure to follow the band on social media and listen to their previous output (links below).
