| 3.3 great | Trey STAFF | February 21st 13 |
The worst parts of Soilwork meet the worst parts of Nightwish -- with a smoking hot female vocalist. Lifeless metalcore meets cheese-filled power metal. If there's something nice to say about this album it's that it 'almost' does enough to be good, and it's definitely better than their last release. Edit: Somehow I've had to up my rating to 3.3 -- it is infectious.

Judging from the mundane crapfest that The Living Infinite was I bet this is at least catchier and more enjoyable than that with the benefit of Aela The Huntress on vox.

this is a bit cheesy, but it does work well enough.

Incredible band. This is a complete classic. Deserves a solid 5 for the beautiful vocals, awesome guitar solos, positive lyrics, impressive consistant electronics, and every song simply rocks.

Going off of the band's previous studio album, Swedish metal troupe Amaranthe's sophomore record isn't much different in terms of both quality and overall composition. Released in 2013, The Nexus is every bit as corny, stereotypical, and unimportant as its predecessor - and yet the ensemble's second offering also more or less possesses a rather similar quota of amusement. The instrumentation continues to be consistently fine throughout the album's running time whilst the clean and screamed vocal performances are still bearable (if generic as balls). Beyond that, there isn't much else I can say regarding The Nexus. On the other hand, though, I'd like to point out that "Electroheart" may very well be one of the most danceable tracks Amaranthe have ever crafted - which is saying something.

I have to say, I loved the first album, and this a great improvement on that debut record. Fallen in love with The Nexus and Electroheart. Hope to hear good things from their next album to be released this year!

This is fast food right here. I know the quality may be questionable, but god damn it, it tastes so I good and I
can't stop eating it. It's Amaranthe's fault I'm obese.

It's goofy, but at least it isn't bad.

Between a 3 and a 3.5. Round up for hotness. A bit disappointed though; not as many standouts as I was hoping for. Still good though. Mechanical Illusion, the Nexus, and Future on Hold were the highlights for me.

It's more of the same, and some of these new songs sounds dagerously similar to some of their older ones. "Infiniti" is probably the best song they've ever written though, what a tune!
