The track exemplifies Guala\u2019s vocal prowess, as she seamlessly shifts between pure, soaring melody and guttural aggression. \u2018Nobody Wants To Be You\u2019 was produced by Lake Malice guitarist extraordinaire Blake Cornwall, alongside Jon Cass, mixed by Carl Bown and mastered by Ste Kerry.\u00a0<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\">\n<div class=\"jeg_video_container jeg_video_content\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Lake Malice - Nobody Wants To Be You (Official Music Video)\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/HCuMSAbkuQ0?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/majortransmission.us3.list-manage.com\/track\/click?u=f2c76d01babcce404e9339c3a&amp;id=cd06625bda&amp;e=04e693393a\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">The accompanying music video<\/a>, directed by Zak Pinchin, is a dark and highly stylised affair, complete with the backup dancers who we\u2019ve seen grace the stage with Malice this summer.\u00a0The forward-thinking, genre-blending approach of Malice\u2019s music means their live show fits with a whole host of different artists \u2013 they\u2019ve already played with both R\u00d8RY and Bury Tomorrow in 2025.\u00a0And, having decimated stages across the UK and Europe this summer, playing festivals such as Slam Dunk, 2000trees, Wacken Open Air and RADAR, Lake Malice are main support to Enter Shikari on their dates this month in the UK and Europe, alongside a one-off headline date in Southampton.
