Meh.
It's okay.
Not my favorite of theirs.
I like Toxicity and Steal This Album the best.
I'm not buying the new one.. I just didn't really feel into it.

actually, it's called "mezmerize". Yes, oh, and Radio/Video is my favorite song on there too. At first I thought it was really wierd, but it's pretty damn cool. And, it's not as good as Toxicity.

I am/was a diehard SOAD fan, but I don't like this at all. They seem to have lost their musical abiltiy, and decided to make noise instead...

It's.... Bring Your Own Bombs?

And it is talking about the war in the Middle Eastern countries and how it's ruining many lives.

Hm, yes, there are a lot of metaphorical phrases in there. I would definately say it's the best of their new album. Most meaning. Soldier Side is good too.

But, I would have to agree with Dean for the most part.

Ok, I went and bought this CD the day it was released. It's not the best album they've ever done, but it's pretty f*n good. You just gotta have an open mind and not be bothered by Daron's vocals (whiny and not so good). My fave songs off of this album are "Violent Pornography" and "Silent Statue". The whole thing is decent though.

You have to keep in mind that "Mezmerize" is only the first disc of a two disc set. In my opinion, "Mezmerize" is probably going to be the slower disc of the two. I think that "Hypnotize" will be the faster, harder, more Serj-heavy CD of the set. Or at least I hope so. I can't take another disc of Daron singing.... ermm.gif

No album that SOAD puts out will ever touch "Toxicity". "Toxicity" was genre-defining album, a classic of it's time. It's true. There will never be another album by SOAD that can touch "Toxicity" in terms on impact and sheer brilliance.

For those that don't know, "Mezmerize" is SOAD's 4th album. "System of a Down" was their first album, "Toxicity" their second, "Steal This Album" their third, and "Mezmerize" their fourth. "Hypnotize" will be their fifth release, which is set for a September/October release or so I've heard.

Ditto. I love that song. I like they're new album, but the CD surprised me. It was different from their older songs.
