Metal Assault
May be people who are fans of the band already will hear this and learn how to make devil horns, but I doubt it.
-
Black Squirrel Radio
Overall, Feed the Machine is nothing revolutionary.
-
All Music
All of this is quite subtle, though: at its heart, Feed the Machine is Nickelback offering meat and potatoes for the dedicated. It's familiar, but it's supposed to be.
-
The Sound Board
It’s about as inessential as any other Nickelback album, and this won’t be what brings the vehement detractors to Kroeger’s side, but to deny there’s some enjoyability here would be unfair to a band who deal with that sort of thing on a regular basis.

Sputnik Music
A bit different, a bit of the same. A bit better than usual, though.

I am sure you were already going to steer clear from this album, but definitely do so.
-
The Young Folks
It’s difficult to predict this album becoming a triumph, however that’s not to say the record will chart poorly but the hard rock, more intense metal sound will certainly not be to everyone’s taste.
-
Cryptic Rock
Feed The Machine is arguably one of their best melodic, heavy musical efforts to date.
-
Metal Master Kingdom
It has great catchy songs and powerful ballads. There is something here for everyone.
-
Wall of Sound
Make no doubt about it, the album contains some of the best tracks they’ve ever released – it’s just that this isn’t a very high bar…at all.
-
The Front Row Report
In the end, Feed the Machine is everything the band promised.
-
Evigshed Magazine
Overall this is a great, hard rock album. They don’t reinvent the wheel but managed to create a different take while incorporating new little things.
-
Uncivil Revolt
Feed The Machine is a definite improvement to No Fixed Address.
-
Rocktopia
A nicely balanced album featuring a great set of songs.
-
Tyler Hersko
This is still shamelessly commercialized garbage that panders to rock music’s lowest common denominator, but it does so with gusto.
-
Renowned for Sound
New album Feed The Machine is a healthy 11 track collection which has a nice mixture of tracks that contain catchy guitar hooks, meaningful and relatable lyrics.
-
Spectrum Culture
There is absolutely no doubt this album will be another hit for Nickelback.
-
The Thin Air
Feed The Machine is a much more po-faced, serious examination of a series of increasingly tepid rock cliches, each serving to illustrate how deep Kroger’s insecurities run but never letting on that he’s in any way aware of them.

All About the Rock
I feel bad for those who heard the genuinely decent title track and expected the whole album to follow suit, only to be met with bitter, bland and boring tracks over and over again.
-
Games, Brains & A Head-Banging Life
Is it a bad album? No way. It’s got some unexpected songs & some pretty good riffs but once it slips back into what makes Nickelback…well, Nickelback, it loses most of its appeal.
-
Amps and Greenscreens
This album IS a step up from the last one, despite my arguing with several colleagues to the contrary.
-
Get Rockes
There are two or three songs maybe worth listening to and you can tell that they put a little more effort into those tracks, but when the rest of the album has as much filler as a hot dog, you aren't getting anything substantial.
-
Mikey's Blog
Overall, this album is a huge improvement over the last few records. It’s not quite on par with their older material but it’s still a solid record all around.
-
Loud Magazine
Almost a decent record.
