It began with one goal: be like BTBAM, just with more black metal in its veins. That core concept created what you see and hear around you

Hollow Construct is not bound by any restraints; which comes from a love for all heavy genres. They exist because four people, scattered across different corners of the world, kept returning to the same conversation evident in each release. Marking an artistic style that fits their individual personalities all together.

The distance never got in the way. If anything, it became part of the character of the music.

You can hear it in the push and pull of their songs. Nothing arriving all at once. Massive walls of sound give way to space and atmosphere. Violence is followed by restraint. A song might spend minutes tightening the knot before finally pulling it apart. There is a patience to the writing, particularly for a band operating within the worlds of blackened deathcore and nu-metal.

Hollow Constructs themes seem to be about a lot of different factors that affect humanity. Searching for meaning in systems that were never built for them. Relationships eroded by manipulation and mistrust. The uneasy feeling of being surrounded by connection while feeling increasingly disconnected. The songs rarely explain themselves outright.

Their recent releases — I'm Glad You're Uncomfortable (IGYU), M.Y.G. (The Ballad of Quincy Jones), It's a Sickness, and Habitual Backbreaker — have found their way into playlists, publications, and conversations throughout the heavy music community. Yet, with that being said; the most interesting thing about Hollow Construct is not where the songs have appeared.

It's how carefully they're assembled.

Every member occupies a distinct role.

Corey Alexander shapes much of the band's vocal, guitar, and production direction. Sean Atchison expands the sonic landscape through keys, synth work, and co-production. Tyler Franco approaches percussion with the mentality of an architect rather than a timekeeper, building movement where others might settle for momentum. Howard Leon oversees bass, mixing, and mastering, acting as the final set of ears before any release leaves the workshop.
