NYC's Ben Strick may have released one of my favorite ambient metal records of the year, all done in his dorm room. His project Moonlapse is releasing it's second full-length called Fade Construct and it provides chill metal vibes on the same level as The Devin Townsend Project/'s lighter stuff or Animals As Leaders.
Strick explained the title of the album thusly:
“Construct is used as a noun. A construct, in mythology, is something that was purposefully animated or brought to life. It could be a stone construct or something like that. This album is a Fade Construct, being made of ‘fade’. Fade refers to musical notes because even though music fades away just as it is heard, a construct of a song or riff is formed in the listener’s mind.”
