Malaise started out in 1989 as an all-electronic one-man project with Martin Danielsson behind the knobs.
The next few years produced bucketloads of more or less thought out demos.
In 1991 Malaise contributed "We are Colliders" to the Memento Materia sampler Elementary '91, soon followed by more songs on the samplers Illuminative '92 and Autumn Leaves '93.
In 1993 Martin teamed up with guitarist Robert Svärdh and drummer Johan Linder.
The same year Malaise released the debut CD "Secession", a six-track mini CD.
Malaise now started to do proper livegigs around Sweden and neighbouring countries.
1994 saw Robert leaving and guitarist Juho Korhonen and bassplayer Kim Boman joining the band.
Work started on a new album that was recorded in August/ September -95. The album "52 Ways" was released in January -96.
In the end of '97 Johan left the band due to relocation and was replaced by Niklas Bergström behind the drums.
Work was in the meantime going on to complete songs for a new album.
Early '98 Juho and Kim left the band but was soon replaced by Jim Edwards, ex. Misery Loves Co., and Fredrik Leijström, both on guitars. Also, Peter Waites joined in as bassplayer during the spring of '98.
Finally, during the spring of '99 Stefan Väisänen had replaced Peter as bassplayer and the new songs came together after many sleepless nights, the album "A World Of Broken Images" was officially released in early October '99, containing eleven new Malaise songs.
In late july '00, when the new MCD "re-assimilated" where more or less finished, Niklas Bergström (drums) and Jim Edwards (leadguitar) left the band and where replaced by programmed drums, Jimmy Waern and Jimmy Widegren, both on guitars.
Spring '01 keyboardist, Robert Eklind from Nocturnal Notion, joined up to fulfill the new Malaise sound.
Spring 2002 Jimmy Waern and Malaise went separate ways.
