This one deserves some attention for sure. As soon as I first heard album
teaser (trailer), I was eager to hear more and when the album finally came out, expectations were fullfilled. Great
double album with great modern sound of melodic death metal (although, a bit
more melodic than death ) with loads of energy. Soilwork finally released an
album that people were/are really excited about. It has a good balance between
hard riffs – catchy melodies and growling – clean singing. For some reason
songs from this album boost my energy, therefore it's often played when I
exercise or go rolerblading.
I must say that I'm very impressed, because album contains exactly zero bad songs, just some of them are stronger than other ones. Only „bad thing“ about this album is that it's a double album, because most people have hard time listening to a single album in one go, so that's a bit of a problem for some. However, these two discs balance each other so perfectly it would be a shame not to listen to it at once. Standout tracks from the album are definitely „Spectrum Of Eternity (with it's epic intro, and then the epic screeaaaam), „This Momentary Bliss“ (catchiest song of the album), and „Long Live The Misantrophy“ (one hell of a greasy riff at the beggining). In my opininon, „The Living Infinite“ is not only the best album of the year so far, but one of the best metal albums in last 5 years, maybe more.
Summary: This album is totally awesome, mind blasting, buy it, listen to it!

And so it was written that Tena Kovačić* the vile Lilith was spawned from the depths of Croatia to join the hordes of the HeavyHardMetalmania.net reviewers. "The wisdom is found in the extremes, all extreme Metal here!"
