Construct of Lethe: The Grand Machination

Northern Virginia-based death metal band CONSTRUCT OF LETHE return with their new EP The Grand Machination. The group was started initially as a project of death metal veteran Tony Petrocelly, but is now a cohesive unit that features members from throughout the world. While the band's sound is firmly rooted in the old-school, it also contains hints of tech-death, thrash and black metal. The Grand Machination is a concept album that takes inspiration from Mark Twain's "Letters From Earth" with the story re-imagined from the viewpoint of Lucifer after the fall.

About Construct of Lethe

Construct of Lethe's intense form of death metal traces its roots through the old school with songs that also display hints of tech death, thrash and black metal. The band released their punishing debut LP 'Corpsegod' to critical acclaim on New Years Day 2016 and are now set released their new EP 'The Grand Machination' EP on October 7th 2016. Once again anchored by the furious riffwork of Tony Petrocelly and raging drums of Kevin Talley (Dying Fetus/Misery Index), The Grand Machination will mark the debut of lead guitarist Patrick Bonvin (Near Death Condition), whose playing brings an extra dimension of atmosphere and aggression to an already vicious sound.

One of the few extreme metal bands who place equal emphasis on lyrics as well as riff-writing, Construct of Lethe presents The Grand Machination EP as a concept album, lyricist/vocalist David Schmidt reinterpreting and perverting Mark Twain's "Letters from the Earth" to tell the tale of Lucifer after the fall as he views the rise and fall of Christ.
