Formed in 2024 in a small town of western France, Malebeste are a five-piece black metal band. Deeply rooted in its land and history, the band mainly explore themes inspired by the legends of Charente, Vendée, and surrounding regions. The quintet offer a melodic and powerful music, driven as much by sharp riffs as by percussive drumming with galloping and varied patterns, supported by inhabited French vocals that transcend the whole. Musically, the band draw inspiration from the French and Swedish black metal scenes.

Malebeste's debut album, Monestherou, recounts the tales and legends of the Charente region (France) and nearby areas. The lyrics, all in French, are carried by atmospheres that are by turns dark and luminous, blending medieval and modern sounds. At the crossroads of traditional French and Swedish melodic black metal, this album offers a large variety of rhythms and structures, from peaceful moments to fast and brutal blastbeats.
