malory - formed in 1995 by three former school friends under the influence of the so-called indie/wave era - is the german incarnation of the shoegazer generation.
in 1999 they have recorded their debut album "not here - not now": sound landscapes from an inverse universe washed against the walls of their studio. find out what kind of sound walls you can build with guitars. total effects, all guitar, a concentric stream of desire and melancholy. layer for layer the dome is growing from freely flowing emotions, in the dispute of the musicians. guitar vs. guitar. his voice against hers.
"outerbeats" is the title of the second album (2001) - and it's really characteristic for the music. while the first album had this touch of their idols slowdive malory are now defining their own cosmos, their own time.
the songs of the new album "the third face" (2005) open a door to a spheric world. the slowness of the moment becomes a journey through the time, a long way through the orbit. it floats atmospherically around you with angelic vocals and experimental sound scapes using guitars as sound tools. these songs deserve only to be played at high volumes so that the sound swallows your room and your mind.
malory invites the listener to take a seat and to fasten their seat belts that the journey can be started.
"Late in the year 2000, Clairecords got a hold of one of the most incredible debut albums we have ever heard by a German band called Malory. The album, entitled "Not Here, Not Now" dug deep into our souls and we felt a compelling urge to spread the word of its brilliance...It remains one of our best sellers to date - even outselling some of our own proud product on our own label..."
- Daniel Sostrom, Clairecords/Tonevendor
"The German band produces gorgeous soundscapes that have not been common with others in recent years..."

"...malory, i would have gone to mexico to see them! their sound, which blends early 90's shoegazing (a la slowdive) with modern mechanics and technology, is instantly engaging"
- Masstranfer -
"Dreams arrive as soon as the music does. This is a new wave of gazing, farther than your shoes - it hits deeper than the ocean. Swirling and enchanting dreampop curls around your heart like little fingers, as warm as rose petal hugs"
- Marcel Feldmar/The Big Takeover -
"From what I hear on this disc, the wait for the new album was more than worth the wait. Malory is shoegaze at its best, with shimmering guitars and breathy vox"
- somewherecold.com -
"Their reverb-heavy, melancholic melodies soaring through thick clouds of effects-drenched guitars were a godsend to the millions of Slowdive fans suffering from withdrawal symptoms after the band's transformation into acoustic folk outfit Mojave 3"

"...They, however, are on the edge of something new. perhaps a new generation is getting ready for their trippy, blissful brand of pop music. Outerbeats will win you over because you're ready for something good to listen to..."

"Malory is shoegaze at its best, with shimmering guitars and breathy vox.The Third Face is another excellent album. If you love shoegaze or dreamy techno pop in anyway, this album is for you."
