1.) Malpractice was a short lived hard rock band in the late ’70s. They released one single, “Love Tunnel”. Malpractice is most known for the later careers of drummer GG Allin and bassist Merle Allin.
2.) Formed 1994 in Kouvola Finland. After a few line-up changes Malpractice steadied to Joonas Koto and Tuomo Pärttö on guitars, Miikka Tikka on drums, Petri Vuorio on bass and Mika Uronen on vocals. Malpractice started out as a thrash-metal band but soon after the release of their first self-financed CD-EP “Memorial” (May 1996), thrash influences were cast aside by more melodic and progressive elements. In December of the same year Malpractice released their second CD-EP “Frozen” which soon gained interest in Germany, France and Italy. Both EP’s are now out of print.
The spring of 1997 ended an era in Malpractice. Bass player Petri Vuorio left the band. His replacement Jonas Mäki joined the band and gave Malpractice a needed kick in the ass. New great material was composed in a very short period of time. Still without a recording deal Malpractice started to record a full-length album in March 1998 at Music Bros studio in Imatra Finland with engineer Miitri Aaltonen. The sessions were finally over in August and the first full-length album “Of Shape And Balance” was out in September.

(QUOTE)Progressive metal? This sounds like punk to me.(UNQUOTE) You're a tool good sir. A fucking tool. I really hope that was sarcasm. Waves is AMAZING, the whole of Triangular is! The new vocalist is much better, and the old one was amazing so thats a big call!

Indeed, quality music and beats most of the newest over-hyped albums. Too bad they are not getting the attention they should be.

It's a travesty that this band isn't very well known. Deviation from the Flow is a fucking incredible album that any metal fan should know.
