3.5 great | TheFourthCircle25 | April 12th 15 | There's nothing wrong, specifically, with Infinite Fields. It has everything that makes technical death metal great; the precision in the instrumentation, the fast but controlled riffing, the atmospheric vocals, all it is here and all of it excels very well. However, I will say that both this album and the band who made it don't necessarily standout among the onslaught of tech death bands we have out nowadays. They're not up their with the likes of Fallujah, Beyond Creation, The Faceless (which is funny since ex-Faceless drummer Lyle Cooper is in this band), or Obscura. I can commend it for not falling into the trap that most tech death bands do, which is that they focus so hard on playing their music as fast as they can that they just become boring. Never on this album was I bored, and this album at 39 minutes goes by pretty fast. I just wish it could have stood out a little more. Still, there are more good things here than bad, and ultimately Irreversible Mechanism are a band that I hope will continue to grow and hopefully gain a higher status in the tech death world. There's a lot to love here and if your a fan of this style of music, or metal in general, this will no doubt satisfy your craving.

3.5 great | Bro has djent in his pie | March 28th 24 | Gets incredibly repetitive after a while, they did a much better job of making a multifaceted listening experience on their follow up.

0.0 | Black Daimon | March 31st 15 | After a first listen, this is nothing to me but a bunch of really boring tech death, obnoxiously laced with bad symphonics. Yes, we get it, you are influenced by classical music, stop beating us over the head with it. And why the hell is everybody going nuts over Lyle Cooper as if he's supposed to be the answer for something? He offers nothing here except a shit tonne of generic blast beats and a neat fill here and there. 'The Agony' has a bunch of cool riffs, but the rest of the album is just tepid, generic, wanky crap. Rating might go up in time if I find something more to like in following listens, but I can't imagine the really terrible synths growing on me at all.
