Serj is kind of a diva. Darron isn’t much without him, but I feel bad for the amount of slack that Darron had to pick up for those albums. Band fizzled out quick, and it’s kind of on Serj in hindsight.

I guess. I used to give him the benefit of the doubt, but he could have just agreed to do one more album (rather than two) or quit a bit sooner rather than just dragging his feet to a mediocre end.

I thought it was fine. Shit the bed on the final double release, call it quits and go work on some decent solo work

Mesmerize and Hypnotize just need to be edited down into a single album and call it Mesmertize. There is some really good stuff on both albums but neither are equal to their previous stuff. But you could make a very solid SOAD album if you use the select cuts.

I don’t think they shit the bed at all lol, unless you mean those two singles they dropped a few years back?

None of the records after this lived up to it, but nothing they did ever could.

every time I think of Serj I think of the video of him being hypnotized by a lamp while saying the music SOAD writes has no meaning
