There’s a powerfully epic force traversing the foothills
of the Arizona desert landscape. It’s low and rumbling, shaking the ground
underfoot like a runaway train colliding with dump truck full of TNT. It’s
angry and aggressive, like a ferociously devastating monsoon storm laying waste
to everything in its path. Most of all, it’s live and loud—or exactly what Malo
de Dentro’s loyal fans experience each and every time the evil within comes out
on stage for the entire world to behold.
This is perhaps the most accurate description of Malo de Dentro, a band that has contributed so much blood, sweat and chords to the
already storied local Phoenix heavy metal music scene over the years. Since its
founding in 2005 by guitarist Chuck Simoes and drummer Brett “Sixkiller’
Mckinney, this talented group of musicians has been thrashing through song
after song with the same heightened intensity, palpable excitement, and expert
showmanship that has made them a legend in the local Phoenix music scene over
the past 11 years.
