Alright, let us get beyond the poorly thought up album title of 'The Infinity Complex' which by all means probably has some sort of made up concept but its reaching. Machinemade God presents their complex as one not very complexed as it is your straightforward approach to heavy metal which thankfully doesn't rely on melding new and old styles of metal.

This is an album which is perfect for someone just starting out in metal, Machinemade God know how to play metal, without any other sub genre names tied in a ridiculous way, rare these days. The band is well rounded in ways of musicianship and pack that proverbial 'punch'. Each track offers plenty of riffs to keep you busy, fine guitar work thrown together in a not so over zealous fashion as they leave the solos to someone else and stick with their compositional advantages. The disadvantage is that Machinemade God might indeed fall prey to the ways of indecipherable description in that they have a sound not so much unique but all too familiar but with plenty of live action many will know who they are.

More bands like Machinemade God need to be pushed out in the open in hopes to stifle and jackasses who think that metal is something easily thrown together for sake of playing Ozzfest. 'The Infinity Complex' is quite metal, metal played well, and that's about as much description as you really need.
