A review by
Doc G. August 11, 2012
So let's get this straight; Results is uncompromisingly violent, layering a variety of extreme style vocals over riffs that are both deep and pummelling, while being a razor sharp wall of sound (picking up some black metal type guitar tones from time to time.) It's got the Agruss appeal; no, it's not anywhere close to sounding like Agruss, but it has the same nature of compounding a variety of extreme metal qualities into a cohesive, streamlined flavor. With Agruss, it's blending black and death metal simultaneously to create a stomping wall of sound. With Murder Construct, it's putting a death metal engine in a grind body with a black metal air-freshener hanging from the rearview; giving it a vague fragrance, but not a consistently tangible scent.
It's an album that puts the boots in and just doesn't let up. That's just swell, but not exactly new to the world of grindcore. Maybe the sound of Murder Construct isn't exactly fresh when describing it in conventional metal review terms, but the sound here is unique without being annoyingly over-creative. These guys (who, by the way, are death-grind vets, being members of Exhumed and Cattle Decapitation) set out to make an awesome grind record, and that's just what they did. Results is as filthy as you'd want it to be, while still just clear enough to pick up on these unhinging riffs and psychotic vocals. On the scale of horrifying things, Results falls somewhere between "Prostate tumour which turns out to be a nest of tarantula eggs" and "Slumber party in Mr. Gacy's basement."
This is all getting a little too descriptive. Disregard everything else you've just read, all you need to know is this; Results is just a grind album done really, really well.

Not a fan of grind, but your 9's are usually 9's for me as well and that album cover really interested me, so consider me in for a taste.

Sounds like a better Cattle Decapitation, and they were already good.
