I have been waiting quite some time for this demo to be released! In 1989 Malignant spread its first demo Demoniac Ceremony, and only in 1999 a second (rehearsal) demo was recorded, aptly titled The Return. Now they have really come back with four excellent underground black metal tracks. Its sound is extremely raw, and far away from the mainstream scene, and its cassette format seems to become extinct, since cyber-black has emerged with its mp3's and cdr's. Totaler Krieg is what it suggests: total war in controversial black metal shape.
