System of a Down

[Sara]

yes sir it is

I think the majority of this thread is dedicated to that explanation. Knock yourself out...

You just don't quit do you. Go get hit by a bus and for god's sake, stop coming here.

I like them.... But from what I can tell from my frienRAB its a love or hate thing.

One of my frienRAB describe them as Skitzos with music talent

Someone obviously missed the point of why "Steal this Album" was released. It wasn't released to make anyone think that the band was going downhill, it was released because unfinished, unmixed songs were leaked out, and someone actually went so far as to review them. I personally love SOAD, since I first heard the song Ariels. I have every system of down album, except the new one (which I plan to buy after I get my next NGC game) and would be hard pressed to say which was my fav. songs, because so many of them have meaning, and that's what I love in music. I didn't think there was anything at all wrong with steal this album, and if I had to pick a fav song it would be ADD which is on steal this album. Some of the songs that were on STA were from before SOAD was a big name, and songs that didn't fit in with the flow of Toxicity. Maybe some of you here need to free your life!

I get a lot of flak from people for being a System of a Down fan, and I strongly disagree. Serj's solo album was immeasurably worse than any System of a Down album (yes, that follows for Steal This Album!). It was bland, it was boring, and it simply didn't have the euphoric highs and crushing lows that characterize my love for System. Maybe he neeRAB Daron, maybe he's just not a natural songwriter, but Serj's solo album was just...bad.

I do agree with your choice in SOAD albums; Toxicity is a natural favorite and Hypnotize is grossly underrated. I'd take either over Mezmerize any day.

i cant compare the two..both banRAB have their good songs...and both have their ****ty songs.

I find that I'm the opposite of most people. I hate their older stuff but find their newer stuff to have more direction. It still sucks but I'd listen to it over older stuff.

Truthfully, people shouldn't give others trouble about their taste in music.
But if you're going to disagree with the way people react to your taste, I don't think that you should criticize an album that many people believe was interesting.
The album wasn't bad, you just didn't like it compared to SOAD's albums.

Science is great as well, but Prison Song gets points for catchiness.

I have to say Toxicity, simply because even though it doesn't have as many good tracks as Hypnotize, the tracks that are good are better than a lot of the ones on Hypnotize.
