---------------------

TodoMal (translates as “all evil” or “all wrong”) came to life in the year zero of our era, 2020, as the brain child of Wildman and Mile, two veteran multi-instrumentalists of the Spanish underground (and not only) metal scene, whose extensive background goes back to a myriad of projects of multiple styles. TodoMal is the product of serendipity, a personal combination of the solemnity of traditional doom metal with the profusion of space-rock.

TodoMal's backdrop is the vast, placid and depressing desolate wasteland of the north of the Alcarria region, in the so-called "uninhabited rural Spain''. It evokes a place halfway between the Mancha of Don Quixote, the film Los Santos Inocentes, the realism of the Generation of '98, the ecclesiastical baroque, films such as Buñuel's Simon of the Desert, etc.

The neologism “ultracrepidarian”— a person who offers opinions beyond their own knowledge—deals with the idea of getting carried away by the irrational, the hubris and the gut feelings and opposing reality and facts, ultimately resulting in those monstrous archetypes that divide and confront people. With this in mind, what's real and rational gets blurred out, just like a mirage under the scorching sun of an imaginary desert that inspires the album's concept: the perfect scenery for TodoMal to explore, dwell and revel in.

Imagine Candlemass and Pink Floyd having a drunken brawl over some cheap wine and then writing an album to make amends... The result could well be 'Ultracrepidarian', the first work of TodoMal, a 38-minute journey made up of seven hypnotic tracks full of contrasts and surprises, a mix of gloomy decadence and forceful riffs plagued by exciting and epic passages of enveloping keyboards.

----------------------------

TodoMal are:

*Wildman (music & vocals)
*Mile (music & production)

*Darío Garrido (bass guitar in "The Growing Pain" & "Gods...", Spanish guitar in "Prelude").

LYRICS

I see your calm pervading light
So dim and black before my eyes,
in countless lives I’ve seen you

Your world can’t save you now
It can’t save you now, no it can’t

Your tiny world can’t save you now

You think you’ve seen it all
The joke of life
You’re banging on against the floor
Blind drunk, wasted, nothing

No, I won’t forget you
No, no one is against you

No, I won’t forget you
No, no one is against you
No one...

Ultracrepidarian: somebody who gives opinions on matters beyond his knowledge. It could be translated to spanish as "tertuliano" or "cuñao". Great tune, waiting for the full record
