    I find this album to be quite amazing. Nero did a fantastic job, A Rave like duo drawing inspirations from artists such as daft punk, sprinkling some dub step, dance, and awesome vocals make this album truly awesome from start to finish.

    This album is amazing and I have been waiting for it for a long time. Nero have done an amazing job. Every track on the album is great. Some of my favourites would include Guilt, My Eyes and Promises but I really have enjoyed the whole album.

    Most of the songs in this album are great in my opinion. The combination of the music and the vocals work really well, which got 'Promises' to the top of the charts. I strongly recommend this album.

    This is one of my favourite albums of 2011, because the songs all have their own theme and are very addictive. What they all have in common is that they have super sick basslines. My favourite track of the albums is "Innocence" because in this song, I think, the combination between the producing talent and the amazing vocals is well-balanced. [9/10]

    Where do I start This album is simple amazing in my opinion, the album is well structured, well polished and each song is unique and there isn't a song on this album that is not amazing! I can't do this album justice in words, I feel like I would have to break out into an interpretive dance and then sacrifice my self to Nero themselves to truly demonstrate how much i like this album

    Nero is such a talented group. Their music is art, and every single song they come out with is dope! This album has a lot of songs that I didn't like the first or second time, but then eventually fell in love with.

    '80s synthpop pandering aside, Welcome Reality is a beautifully realized vision of an album whose pomp and bombast will appeal to those looking for pop that goes beyond dancing.

    Welcome Reality pulls dubstep toward the arena-pop spotlight without leaving its shadows behind.

    Had Nero not loitered on their cozy euphoric plateau, Welcome Reality may have given those Tron: Legacy co-conspirators a good fight.
