Maladicto â Band Bio

Maladicto is an aggressive and distinctive blend of hard rock with Latin roots. Hailing from Chicago, Maladicto features the individual and collective talents of Puerto Rican and Mexican members whose passion and overwhelming presence can be felt by all who experience their music.
Maladictoâs unique brand of hardcore Latin rock has been molded by influences like the Fabulosas Cadillacâs, Sepultura, Carlos Santana, Hector Lavoe and the Fania All Stars just to name a few. Their debut album titled âSalsatanico â¦Bailando la danza de la venganzaâ is sure to leave ears ringing. Ben Ortiz of the Chicago Tribune (January 2008) best described it as a âMexi-Rican thrashers delightâ. Their hardcore riffs combined with the Latin grooves will definitely appeal to both Latin and rock genres. Maladicto will release their first album in 2008 and have already begun gathering material for the second album.
Maladicto has played with several major bands such as Spigga and Cartel de Santa from California, Lvzbel from Mexico, Hamlet and Tierra Santa from Spain. They have also been featured in two recent compilation CDs â The 30 Year Anniversary of Latin Rock in Chicago and Rock Scarz Magazineâs Compilation of Up and Coming Bands.
Maladictoâs engaging stage presence weaves razor-sharp lyrics with their wall shattering thrashing style. Not only has their heart-pounding music cultivated a reputation for transcending boundaries, races and languages, they have also grown an international following in a short period of time. One needs to look no further than the bandâs performance at the Racine Wisconsin Latin Fest from 2007 to grasp their appeal. In an area that to put it lightly - isnât their typical target audience, Maladicto quickly won over the small town crowd. âThe crowd was going wild,â said percussionist Carlos Garcia. âThere were ladies rolling towards the stage with one hand on their strollers and the other hand pumping in the air.â
Andy Downing of the Chicago Tribune (February 2008), âEven if attendees donât speak the language, thereâs plenty to take away from the bandâs sonic assault.â
Much of Maladictoâs energy is amplified by singer Manny Nieves, who writes all of the bands lyrics, which stray from the typical love and heartbreak themes. The band and Nieves instead choose to focus on social injustice with their music, with songs that engage subject matter like police corruption, cultural oppression and political abuse.
Maladicto wears their heart and soul on their sleeves, with their music reflective of their heritage, culture, and respect for life and death. Life experiences have shaped them into who they are today, and their music continues to entertain and grow on the audiences that experience it.
