FABRICANT - Drudge To The Thicket (CD)

Bay Area technical death metal entity Fabricant leverages any musical tool for their riff and song fabrication. Speed, stillness, technicality, simplicity, consonance, dissonance-are all at play for the express purpose of telling the stories of humanity's hubris, madness, and frailty. Fabricant glimpsed into this black vortex, extracted the raw materials of inspiration, and refined the chaos into the ten fully actualized death metal songs on their debut album Drudge To The Thicket. This album was Fabricant's obsession: a forbidden riddle to solve. From its beginnings stretching as far back as their 2010 demo and to its ultimate end, this album inhabited the deepest recesses of their minds as an omnipresent consumer of thought. With the arrival of this debut, the band frees themselves of this thicket. The battle was hard-won, but the next ones inexorably begin. From new obsessions to delirium to the mundane, consciousness marches onwards, screaming out at all of existence for answers, only to feebly fall on deaf ears. Descend into the chaos with Fabricant.
