4.5 superb | Iluvatar | June 26th 06 | Redeemer is undoubtedly the most impressive album I’ve heard all year, not only because its from some no name bunch of losers from Sweden (seriously, shouldn’t they be playing death metal or something?), but because they’ve truly crafted an inimitable record with an incredible amount of musicianship, songwriting prowess, and overall zest for what they’re doing. Every song they make could (relatively) be a highlight on a good amount of the albums I’ve heard not only this year, but of the past 5. Redeemer deserves to be the album that, at the end of the year, everyone is talking about, and Machinae Supremacy at least deserve to be the band you next check out when you have a few minutes of free time to spare. Oh, but make sure you can miss whatever appointment you’ll have next, as you’ll probably want to go play Space Invaders afterwards.

5.0 classic | Hatshepsut | October 9th 06 | This is quickly becoming one of my favorite albums of all time. It's probably the catchiest metal I have ever heard, and it's mixed in with metal solos and drumming. It's got the power metal singer, which may be good or not, whatever you want, it's got the appeal, since it's just so damn good. It's catchy as hell, so much so that you can't help but love it. Catchy metal=heaven.

3.5 great | CrazyFool84 | November 17th 09 | Machinae Supremacy captivated a lot of listeners with their "Sid" metal sound, and granted, it was a pretty innovative addition to the metal realm. I can't help but feel, however, that this band's gimmick grows tiresome upon repetition (I'll cite this album and a lot of their downloads) and that unfortunately they didn't seem to be able to build upon the strengths of this disc when it came to their next outing. I was a big fan of the way this band went about releasing their music and making it available as easily and freely as they did online. They're a clever act and hopefully they find the creativity bug bitting them in the ass more sooner than later. (Rating: 3.3/5)
