Album Reviews

Murder Construct is a partnership between members of Cattle Decapitation and Exhumed who felt they just weren’t releasing quite enough sick tunes already even though Exhumed released an album last year (“All Guts, No Glory”) and Cattle Decapitation released one earlier this year (“Monolith Of Inhumanity”).

If you’re into extreme metal, this will definitely fulfill your needs. There’s nothing pretty about the songs on “Results” and I’m thinking that melody is a dirty world in these guys’ universe. But what they lack in melody, they more than make up in speed and sheer aggression. Listening to their bludgeoning mix of death metal and grindcore is much like getting the shit kicked out of you for half an hour.

Just like a solid beating though, it only hurts in the beginning and after a couple of songs the lack of variation causes a kind of numb sensation and you end up rolling with the punches instead of resisting.
