FINAL TAKEOVER / GENERAL MALICE

If you have never heard of General Malice, then get ready to feel music warfare and be part of the next sound to burst out of the underground. Clint Harley Ward, A.K.A. General Malice has had a dream of innovating the mixture of breakbeats, hip hop and a little bit of drum and bass to a point that no one has touched before. As a significant figure on the notorious Big Cat Records in Japan and a rising star on Nitrous Oxide Entertainment in the United States, Malice has always stayed true to his experimental sound, mashing up hip-hop, amen-ridden jungle, reggae and metal within a single track while turning bass-craving junglists into "rabid monsters of the pit."
His latest album, "Final Takeover," is based around a style dubbed "extreme reggae, dancehall, IDM-style mash-up" and features twelve original tracks, each with a different sound than the one previous to it. This album will be available on March 14, 2006 as a CD and Three-piece vinyl set and will be available at all major retailers including Best Buy, Virgin, HMV and Tower.
______________________________
General Malice is the true underground hero of the next generation of DIY producers that mash out the sounds of reggae/IDM/jungle/hip hop/ dancehall with fresh new concepts and club moshing agression. With over 35 hits on the Japanese label Big Cat, his sound has inspired a nation of mash-up junkies. Think of General Malice as a darker roughneck version of Prefuse 73, or if Rise Against was more bass driven, or if Squarepusher had more radio anthem driven dancefloor killers, and that's where you will find General Malice's sound.
Bringin' influences from the legendary Gangstarr, Kraftwerk, Slayer, Remarc, Ludacris, Ray Keith, DJ Shadow, Lee Perry, and Massive B, this young gun DJ+Producer rages hard and rough enough for the next sound with international all-star guests KRS-1, The NIPPS, and General Jah Mikey. It's punk fueled eletronica with a solid reggae & indie rock consistency. If IDM jungle/drum and bass were ever to break into cross-over mainstream, one would reference General Malice's "Final Takeover" album as being the "one that put it on the map." It is the first ever American reggae jungle mash-up album.
