They wrote both the albums before even recording Mesmerize. The new album is more of a Mesmerize part 2.

ooooo so its gona be alright-ish

I wasnt too impressed by Mezmorize, so I hope Hypnotized is better. Mezmorize was pretty good, but I enjoy S/T and Toxicity much better.

yeh i like there old stuff much more. i like B.Y.O.B though

B.Y.O.B. and Question are the only songs I like off of Mesmerize.

Its proably gonna be close to Mezmerize, just not songs with stupid lyrics like B.Y.O.B..

[QUOTE=GenuineImitation]B.Y.O.B. and Question are the only songs I like off of Mesmerize.[/QUOTE]
snap i like the others but i prefer these 2 the most!

B.Y.O.B was a crap song in my opinion, my least favourite off Mesmerize. Mesmerize itself is probably the worst System album so far but from what I have heard of Hypnotize, their new release has the potential to be a brilliant album.

hmm.. the 2 singles are the 2 you like.. ever try actually giving the rest of the songs a shot?

when does it come out?

I personally HATED their latest album, and am not roo interested in Hypnotize.

I'm one of those typical "The first SOAD cd was the best!" people.

well im gona dwnld a view if possible. cya layers

Yeah, I have the cd. I just dont like the other songs, no matter how many times I listen to them.

If its like their latest cd, it will blow. period.

The song Hyptnotise is one of SOAD's better songs ever.

The Tianamen Square line blew me out of my world.

I think its good not great. I'm gonna buy it still, even if they aren't putting on the intrumental. :upset:

I'm not a fan of BYOB either. Question is my favorite song off the album, though. I think it far surpasses any of the other songs. Radio/Video is a very groovy song too, though.

I dont know why people dont like mezmerize I found it to be a perfect soad album. Lots of different songs, none of them are same style. I dont think hypnotize will be better, but we will find out in november. I personally think all soad's albums are equal as they all are good and different in their own way. I can't say which one i like the most since I listen to them all equally and enjoy them all. Hypnotize track was a bit cheesy when I heard it.

yea i really like their new stuff also.. you gotta learn to appreciate it cuz if it all sounds the same im sure people would be complaining about it sounding the same.. at least their experimenting.

What is the message to "Cigaro"?

" MY **** is much bigger than yours!*"

What's it mean? I have a general idea but just want to double check

^
Replace it with "My army is bigger that yours!" and you basically get what the whole song is about :thumb:

nice double post.

Hey Skit, what era is Marmalade from, thats my favorite unreleased song:D

Yeah sorry about that, I posted it yesterday when the boards where f[I]u[/I]cked and I couldnt get on to delete it... Deleted now :thumb:

Marmalade was played live alot in '97 and was recorded with the Self titled album... I think it was actually a bonus track on the Japanese Version.

system of a down kick some serious *** they are one of the first metal bands i got into their self titled album is sweet as and toxicity is great also steal this album was a let down overall but had a couple of good tracks like
I-E-A-I-A-I-O thats one of my favourite system tracks

Anyone seen the Hypnotize video yet? It's pretty rad.

Nop, but the song isnt to great, but it is growing on me.

But the lyrics are pretty poor,

Was Fashion the reason why they were there?

They disguise it, Hypnotize it
Television made you buy it

I'm just sitting in my car and waiting for my...

She's scared that I will take her away from there
Dreams that her country left with no one there

Mezmerize the simple minded
Propaganda leaves us blinded

The video is system worst... Hell Darons vocals are out of sync pretty bad throughout.

where can I see the video?

it says on systemofadown.com that their hypnotize video premieres nov. 1st.

[QUOTE=PepsiMetal]it says on systemofadown.com that their hypnotize video premieres nov. 1st.[/QUOTE]

But it was on MTV2 earlyer, or so im told by my sister.

heres a song for yall [url]http://www.megaupload.com/?d=K7WBIRX6[/url]

yea thats a cool song.. thats what i can imagine soads new stuff sounding like if daron didnt take control of the band.. it sounds like old system.. i have the cd masters of horror its pretty cool.. has a few good songs on it, but the buckethead and serj is like my favorite.

Hypnotize Video:

I saw the video on scuzz earlier, I hate it. I'm really not to keen on the song, and Daron looks like such a prick.

I told you he cut his hair like a c*nt :lol:

yeah, he looked alright with it long in the byob video, he should have kept that. I wonder what he can do to make it worse than it is already?!

daron has wierd teeth.. and he sings like a goat bleating, it makes me laugh especially when i watch soad live.
