Die schwedische Death-Metal-Band Februus ist mit ihrem mit Spannung erwarteten neuen Album Construction of Conflict zurück. Es handelt sich um progressiven Death Metal, der in völlig neue Dimensionen vorstößt und ein ebenso interessantes wie eigenwilliges Hörerlebnis bietet. Wie jemand auf YouTube anmerkte: Das Hören eines ihrer fünfminütigen Songs fühlt sich an, als würde man ein ganzes Album hören – es steckt tatsächlich unglaublich viel darin!

After releasing an astounding debut in "Surveillance Orgy", Swedish death metal band Februus return with a sophomore album that is more mature and consistent, yet just as fascinating and eccentric as one would expect it to be. There are no 15-min songs on this one; most of them in fact happen to last for just around five minutes and Februus make sure that they're nonetheless packed with plenty of deviations and surprises that are of more varied textures and moods than before. The music on "Construction of Conflict" in that sense is more compact and effective without losing its expressive power - there is so much happening that a normal five minute song feels like it's much, much longer than that. And they're not just crammed in for the sake of diversity; the alternate-dimension parts flow fairly coherently, maintaining the groove and/or momentum, and almost always the section that follows. Februus remain one of the most interesting Swedish death metal bands today, always having a trick or three up their sleeves, while maintaining a deceptively rough, clamorous demeanour.
