Malisha is a member of the Marty Friedman metal family tree, the connection being that the vocalist here, one Kim La Chance, formerly sang with Marty in one of his earlier bands, Vixen. That band recorded a single EP in 1982, with Friedman and others eventually mutating into Hawaii and La Chance striking out on her own with Malisha.
The group only managed on album, Serve Your Savage Beast, released in 1986 and featuring tracks culled from several different recording sessions, which explains the large number of members appearing on the album. The music is standard mid-eighties metal, nothing more and nothing less, with Kim putting in a strong vocal performance. The songs really aren't anything special -- this is a decent album for its day but really only of interest to 80's collectors.
