New album in a few weeks!
I got mine on pre-order so I'll (hopefully) get it before everyone else :thumb:

I just can't get "spiders" out of my head, such a good song.

I hate the post-toxcicity SOAD. Mesmerize SUCKS.

Replace it with "My army is bigger that yours!" and you basically get what the whole song is about :thumb:[/QUOTE]
I thought it was about being big-headed.

I agree in some context. It was a bit repetitive for my taste but it wasn't bad at all.

I disagree.

[QUOTE=Prince of Darkness]I disagree.[/QUOTE]
Yeah, SA seems to dig Mezmerize.

So do I. \m/

If you can bring yourself to watch the MTV music awards, SOAD are playing 2 songs and are up for an award.

Well what do you expect when they were both written and recorded at the same time.

I heard the first single of off the new album the other day and I wasn't impressed to say the least. I was waiting for something completly weird to happen during the song but it was just alot of pretty strait foreward riffs without the usual SOAD feel to it. I hope the rest of the album is better cuz I actually liked the last album after writing them off a couple of years ago after Toxicity.

my personal favourites from mesmerize would be the cocaine song, sad statue , and cigaro.

People hate Mezmerize because they like to whine about how much SOAD's lyrics suck now.I actually don't give a **** about lyrics in a band like SOAD, as long as they're catchy they are fine by me.

And all you whiners go read some books.

hyptonize is gonna rock with tracks like holy mountain and kill rock and roll

I know three people who have heard Hypnotize, at the Kerrang listening session, and they all said that it was WAY better than Mezmerize.

I like what they're doing with "Solier Side", even though the song name sucks big time.

I sure hope it is cause Mezmerize was pretty dissapointing

[QUOTE=Triumph of Death]Well, the more albums they release, the more money they make, and we all know that's the only thing they think of.[/QUOTE]

You are an idiot.

I thought that there performance was quite poor really.

I think it rocked! Daron was crazy, I loved the "SUCK MY D!ICK!" part!
And when the song usually ends, it just took off.. That was rad, man.

[QUOTE=I Am Vikingcore]You are an idiot.[/QUOTE]


Amen.

I hate it when people say that about bands that release double-albums.

[QUOTE=Jake]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.[/QUOTE]


how do you think it would compare to their first cd. Their first cd was genious.

I loved the first one, it was just so raw and heavy, but at the same time very clever with its melodies and lyrics.

Mezmerize was great, I can't believe Cigaro has only been mentioned once, come ON people, tsk tsk...

Can't wait for Hypnotize. It probably will be another Mezmerize, but I've loved all the cd's, and I doubt this coming one will dissapoint me.

I read about Serj saying that "Vicinity of Obscenity" is the craziest song he's ever written. Considering tracks like "F*ck the System", it's going to very interesting too hear it all...

Any of you dudes seen the Hypnotize video?

Daron's hair is pretty sweet. :thumb:

it's called Hypnotize and it's the second part of their two part album, the first part was mezmerize

[QUOTE=Tele_Dude]Amen.

ZOMG EVERYBODY HOO GETZ POPPULLER IZ A SELLOUT!!!!!1

Actually their lyrics are pretty good, they just find one line in some song like Why do they always send the poor, and then judge all soad's lyrics from that line/song. Seriously, mezmerize has great lyrics. Sad Statue, Revenga, question, etc.. Oh well, we'll see what comes out of hypnotize.

I think soad's best work was in toxicity. Chop suey, needles, deer dance, toxicity, aerials, etc.. All great songs.

I thought that Mezmerize was their best album since the self-titled. Question was my favorite song off of it and I was pleasantly surprised it became a single. Hopefully Hypnotize will be good as well.

People don't seem to realize that SOAD is a very progressive band. The problem is that their biggest fans are also the most retarded, and they don't understand that progressive bands tend to... well, PROGRESS from album to album. If something isn't exactly the same after each record they cry foul and say the band has "sold out" or lost its edge. The "sellout" line is the most laughable, since every album has had a single and music video from it, and SOAD never loses its edge because they've always got something to rant about, as well as the obligatory silly song.

So stop whining and just chalk it up to personal preference. The album doesn't have to be great to you, but you can't just invent reasons for it other than your opinion.

[QUOTE=Jake]Well what do you expect when they were both written and recorded at the same time.[/QUOTE]
"The fragile" by NIN was written and recorded at the same time, yet one disc is much, much better than the other one.

It's all relative, my friend. :)
