I'm a fan of System's music but the whole anti-political/capatilism thing annnoys me. Firstly, they release Steal This Album, basically its filled with songs that weren't good enough to get on Toxicity, if that isn't a cash in, I don't know what is. Secondly, their upcoming album[B]s[/B]. Wheres the need for two? Well apart from being double the cash in take for System.
And finally:
[I]Why don't presidents fight the war?
Why do they always send the poor?[/I]
Those lyrics are weak, thats the only thing that can be said. If you saw that in the Songwriting part of this forum, you would laugh at this person. Simple as that. Apart from that, good band.

[QUOTE=Det_Nosnip]When, exactly does it come out?[/QUOTE]
It comes out On May 17th in the US

There's going to be an exclusive listening party here in Austin this Saturday (May 7th)...This should be intersting. I wonder if they'll be doing something similar to NIN where they had listening parties all over the place and gave out free stuff.

Heh shame thousands of people have already heard the album :lol:

Toxicity was the first SOAD album that i bought......so im not one of those ppl that say the S/T was the only good album....i mean there are significant differences between the albums, but there still SOAD.....one of the weirder songs off of Toxicity was the Prison Song, and i liked it.....i am a big fan of SOAD always will be... because i personally like everyone of there albums

[QUOTE=Skit]Heh shame thousands of people have already heard the album :lol:[/QUOTE]


Yeah, no kidding. The free stuff would still be nice though.

^ yea...
If anybody has it, care to upload it?
I want to hear it, but i don't want to buy it...

What do you want uploading?

I finally heard B.Y.O.B Good song

[QUOTE=MXican]What do you want uploading?[/QUOTE]

The whole album would be nice...
If not, anything off of it except BYOB.

^My name is Jake, and I too, am I badass bassist. Just thought i'd throw that out there.

Me too :eek:


/Freakyness++

Hey if anyone has the new album can someone upload some songs for me pleease?

Edit: apart from byob, cigaro, holy mountain and kill rock 'n' roll.

i dont understand the vid

wooooo bass!

I just downloaded the new mesmerize album. It's pretty good. Kill rock n roll and holy mountain are not on it. Im assuming they'll be on hypnotize. This album is unlike previous soad albums. They have so many more accoustical parts in their songs. Lost in hollywood is basically all acoustical song. And daron's voice is so freaking weird in that song. BYOB, is also pretty good, it has great parts to it. I also like Sad Statue. That song kicks some major a[b]s[/b]s. Chorus is just beautiful imo. I know lyrics are very political and about this iraqi war, but really song itself is great if you dont care about meaning of lyrics. :)

Here are couple of songs I've uploaded.

[b]Sad Statue[/b]

Im not going to upload whole CD cause that's not cool for the band. :lol:

my favorite song by System would have to be P.L.U.C.K. followed closely by Soil

theres been a lot of therads of SOAD maybe you should make this official

The mods are not making anymore official threads and it would be kinda pointless seeing that after the new albums come out all the threads will stop.

the guitarist is probably the most talented off the group and thats not saying too much the drummer isnt bad but serj and shavo are crap...just my opinion

Daron should get his own band. It'd be the weirdest music ever recorded.

just got Mezmerize pretty good i guess. BYOB rocks. Yeah good history short and sweet.

Did anyone else notice how cool riffs are on this new album? I mean listen to songs like Lost in hollywood, radio/video, violent photography, etc. Those slow acoustical intros/riffs are awesome. Much better than his previous work imo.

Yea, I hate myself, but I had to dl it since I dont have a job yet. :lol:

[QUOTE=grungeboygtr]serj and shavo are crap[/QUOTE]

Serj...Crap?!? Whats wrong with you.

[QUOTE=Darkko]Daron should get his own band. It'd be the weirdest music ever recorded.[/QUOTE]
Quite far from it, actually.

there were rumors of Daron starting a solo career too. but in an interview he said he would rather just be part of SOAD.

I don't think there would be any reason for Daron to have a solo band, he gets to do pretty much what he wants with SOAD. Like they said he writes 90% of the stuff anyway. And yes, Daron is a weird guy, but there are many weirder bands than SOAD.

He also has like different voices. For example, in lost in hollywood, it's so **** weird (but in a good way), and in other songs it's different.

Daron obviously has alot of creative control on the new album (he basically wrote everything and played bass on the album). Has it always been this way?
