Great White Metal band. Its not little AOR, its just pure (Melodic Metal) From The 80S. They play at a cool white metal festival back in the 80s together with Gardian(later Guardian),Vengeance(U.S.A) and More.This Band later changed their name several times to Bashan Tyre and Vision (under this name they recorded one track for California Metal Volume II)

Following the release of Red Sunrise, Malachia changed its name to Bashan-Tyre before changing it one last time to Vision. In 1990 Vision placed the track “Runaway” (of which it also recorded a video that aired on Real Videos) on the California Metal II compilation before calling it quits for good. Which is too bad, because on Red Sunrise Malachia proves a more than above average talent with the ability to put together an entire album worth of quality material. If given the opportunity to record a follow up release or two I cannot help but think Malachia/Bashan-Tyre/Vision – whatever you want to call them – would be mentioned in the same sentence today with the likes of Guardian, Saint, Whitecross and Barren Cross. If you happen to stumble across a copy of Red Sunrise then by all means pick it up. Please note that you can also see the band performing live versions of “Sightless Eyes” and “In Christ We Rock” on the DVD re-issue of the Sanctuary sponsored Metal Mardis Gras video. In the meantime, we can only hope for a re-issue on CD…
