Machinemade God their second album sounds very refreshing with the right metalcore elements and melodic parts that gives it all a lighter feel( orchestra, choirs and acoustic guitar parts). With some nice instrumental interludes to melt the tracks together. Production by there own Sky Hoff(Guitar/clean singing) that did an excellent job, its a very clean in your face production.
Machinemade God uses more clean singing and catchy melodies then other core bands like Caliban they could reach a wider audience( or lose some).

The guitars are a good combination of brutal riffing and melodic parts were some experimenting is not being avoided. Sky Hoff does has some minor flaws in clean singing but overall he sounds good.
‘Masked’ is an album with all the major core ingredients, the brutal and clean singing, breaks and riffs. Metalcore fans and probably some other metalheads should give this album a chance.
