MURDER CONSTRUCT Results

Album · 2012 · Grindcore

"Results" is the debut full-length studio album by US grindcore/death metal act Murder Construct. The album was released through Relapse Records in August 2012. The band released the "Murder Construct" EP in 2010 and apparently it´s now time for a full-length release.

"Results" may be catalogued as a full-length release, but it´s a pretty short album with it´s 29:10 minutes of playing time. It´s not unusual for a grindcore release though. The band play grindcore with death metal elements. The latter mentioned style is especially heard in the vocal department. There are higher pitched raw vocals in the music too though. Most tracks are pretty short deathgrinding tracks but album closer "Resultados" stands out with it´s 6:36 minutes long playing time and it´s rather unconventional structure and atmospheric sections.

While the musicianship and the songwriting are on a good level, I think there is a minor issue with the sound production. I have no problem with the fact that it´s raw like hell, but I miss details, because it´s somewhat messy/noisy and not especially nice on the ears. As a result I´m not enjoying "Results" as much as I had hoped for after the promising debut EP, but it´s still a pretty strong release and a 3 star (60%) rating is warranted.

Murder Construct is the self-titled EP debut release by US grindcore/ death metal act Murder Construct. The EP was released in November 2010 by Relapse Records. Murder Construct is a project created by members ( and ex-members) of acts such as Cattle Decapitation, Exhumed, Watch Me Burn, Phobia, Intronaut and Bad Acid trip.

The 17:36 minute long EP contains seven tracks of blasting fast-paced grindcore with mid-paced death metal sections thrown in. I´m mostly reminded of Brutal Truth ( without the high pitched screaming vocals), but also acts like Napalm Death and Coldworker come to mind. The music is powerful, aggressive and raw. The production is very professional and rather clean for a grindcore release. The sound kind of reminds me of the production on Need to Control (1994) by Brutal Truth and that´s never a bad thing in my book.

So while Murder Construct isn´t by any means going to revolutionize the grindcore scene ( if you ask me), it´s a very good release that deserves a 3.5 - 4 star rating. I know I found myself banging like a madman and really enjoying the EP.
