We are Construct; an energetic progressive metal band from Stoke-on-Trent with a passion for music. Our bassist has recently parted ways with us, so we are now on the hunt for a new one.
You can check out our demo tracks here to hear what our music sounds like and the sort of thing we want you to be able to play: https://soundcloud.com/constructband
