MetalSerbia.com recently conducted an interview with MALEVOLENT CREATION drummer Gus Rios. In the interview Rios talked about the current state of touring as a death metal band, as well as the band's current plans among other things. An excerpt from the interview is below:
Metal Serbia: How would you describe touring conditions in Europe compared to those in the US?
Gus Rios: "We have officially stopped touring the US. we hate it. We'll only tour Europe, South America, basically anywhere but the US. US sucks. Not the country, but the conditions of touring in the US are nowhere near as good as the conditions in Europe; Less fans, less support, clubs are not great, death metal in the United States is much less popular than it is in Europe.
It's tough to come to Europe and get treated like an artist and be respected and then go back to your own country and get treated like shit.”

Malevolent Creation recently finished up a European tour with KRISIUN and KARNAK in February.
