"It has already been quite a trip for Murder Construct. According to guitarist Leon Del Muerten, the ‘supergroup’ have been weaving in and out of various bands through the years, and in fact Murder Construct began about a decade ago, but it has taken this long to find suitably minded band members who were on the same page — and more importantly, all located in the same area.

The band are made up of Travis Ryan (Cattle Decapitation), Leon del Muerte (Exhumed, D.I.S., ex-Impaled, ex-Phobia), Kevin Fetus (Watch me Burn, Fetus Eaters), Caleb Schneider (Bad Acid Trip) and Danny Walker (Intronaut,Exhumed, ex-Jesu, ex-Uphill Battle). I don’t normally go into lists like that but if you note all those “ex”s you will know how difficult it was to finally pull this together.

Considering the lengths they must have to take to actually be present in the same room, this is a solid and well constructed release. It leans to the more metallic side of grind rather than the punk and noise end of the spectrum, so the listener is confronted with a sound that’s more similar to the likes of Brutal Truth and mid-era Napalm Death than the D-beat-obsessed likes of Skitsystem. More importantly, there are plenty of devastating riffs, and Murder Construct is seriously heavy on the production front.

Danny Walker’s drumming on this record is probably the fastest of his career, and in terms of punishing velocity is up there with the likes of hyperspeed tech-death merchants Brain Drill — albeit without the occasionally over-produced vibe that bands falls prey to — his kit retains the acoustic balance and dynamics without the silly electro-stabs that you find in other band’s breakdowns.

‘Construct’ kicks off the album in a way that Cannibal Corpse would be proud of – heavy riffs, and a gruelling and lengthy scream from vocalist Travis Ryan. For the next few minutes it is pretty tough and intense deathgrind, but once the album settles down a bit during ‘I Am That’ and ‘Destroy Babylon’ — the latter even containing something resembling a guitar solo — you get to appreciate more of the whole sound of the band rather them them constantly spewing vicious noise in your ears. It is actually more melodic than I am making out, and rarely drifts towards the Nasum droning sound; instead, Ryan forms an almost Black Metal squeal at the end of ‘Submission’. What sets this record apart from its peers is the exploration of sounds and influences which undoubtedly have come from all the members previous bands. And all in a short 18mins!"


I do have many items listed in my store with Buy It Now or Make Offer, so please do not hesitate to make offers, all but lowballs will be considered.  I will combine shipping to actual shipping costs, so buy more than one ;-) Also, I know the shipping is high on the 7" records, but that is Canada Post not me...so if you are into those, either buy a bunch, or get an LP too, it will save you in the long run on ship costs.

I use either new or good solid used mailers, plastic wrap and new bubble wrap. Records will be packaged as though I was sending them to myself, how they get to you matters to me.

Shipping is based on weight and location, also your feedbacks and location. It will be extremely close to actual +- up to a dollar, if you pay over by more than that I will refund the difference. Here are some general examples to give you an idea:
