about

Favourite Mistake is the culmination of everything Mallavora: a dynamic tune of rugged riffs, blistering powerhouse drums and soaring, textured vocals.

The third addition to their debut EP is Mallavora’s most impressive track yet. The band are not afraid to face serious and personal issues in their lyrics: namely this latest single tackles themes of addiction and restraint. It opens with a snarling riff and verses traded between two vocalists, increasing in intensity until the final chorus where escalating vocal harmonies, guitar layers and fuzzy bass create a carefully-crafted fervent sound.

Craving your burn, it's making me hurt
Waiting for everyone else to have their turn
Trapped in your gaze, I’ll play your games
Convinced myself it’s just a phase

Hide me from her
Can’t out run her

What was that I heard you say?
In the back of my head, calling my name
You’ve got control of me, follow every step I take
I forget to regret you, my favourite mistake

Here we are back at seduction, my excuse for our dysfunction
This can’t be right
It’s every night
Why can’t I decline?

Promises made only stay a day
It’s not like I meant them anyway
Can’t break the chain but I can’t sustain
Needing you to be myself again

Pulls me under
Crash like thunder

What was that I heard you say?
In the back of my head, calling my name
You’ve got control of me, follow every step I take
I forget to regret you, my favourite mistake

Here we are back at seduction, my excuse for our dysfunction
This can’t be right
It’s every night
Why can’t I decline?

With you tonight
One last time

What was that I heard you say?
In the back of my head, calling my name
You’ve got control of me, follow every step I take
I forget to regret you, my favourite mistake
