About Me

What do you want to know about Malfunktion? There's not much you can learn from a web site and there's always the chance that whoever's writing this is spewing lies. Suffice to say that you will not know Malfunktion until you've experienced it live. Don't even try to argue. Just accept the facts for now, and be prepared for the reckoning when your times comes.----------------------------------- + + + -------------------------------These three noisy but lovable miscreants go by different names from time to time, but for the sake of your sanity we'll keep things simple. Kyle's the one who hits the drums. How he keeps the crazy beats is a secret even he probably doesn't know. Mario's the guy with the hands of blazing speed, jumping around with his bass until he collapses at the end of the set. He times it beautifully. Francesco is the one with the sexy white Strat and the hot fuzz. He's a cool customer and that's about all we know of him at this point. Occasionally they will team up with a dude named Dan, guitar whiz by trade. You have to hear him to understand. Sort of like the whole band.--- + + + ---What else do you want?

Franks show review December 27 (Bovine Sex Club)

Cross the Bovine off as another Toronto venue we've played, but make sure you mark it as one of the better ones. Still not sure about the origin of the name (although there is a pole on a mini-stage i...

Frank’s show review September 14 (El Mocambo)

The El Mo again, and there are mixed feelings about this one. First of all, it was a sad show right off the bat because... it was our last one with Dan as a permanent menber of the band. He'll still j...
