This October: Malphas to drop The 39th Spirit

"All in all, Malphas have opened their account in pretty convincing style. Their full length debut release will be one to watch out for."-The Midlands Rocks


Philadelphia's MALPHAS return with The 39th Spirit, the follow-up to their 2015 debut EP The Conjuring. The album is set to be released on October 26 on Via Nocturna.

The band commented “Malphas is stoked to finally unleash these ten tracks upon the world with our new partners in Via Nocturna. We’ve worked very hard on this album and couldn’t be more proud of the end result and our growth as a band. ‘The 39th Spirit’ is the story of man’s corruption by Malphas, in his quest to destroy the roots of organized religion. He forms a pact with Malphas - his life, in exchange to lead Malphas’ armies against the Church in the afterlife. But once the deed is done, by the album’s conclusion, man must face the reality of what he’s sacrificed and whether the world he’s created is actually a better place than it was before.”
