It's been leaked.

[QUOTE=Jake]not as good as Toxicity or there self titled though.[/QUOTE]

Im not sure, Certainly the whole album isnt, But some odd songs are as good if not better......

[QUOTE=Jake]It's been leaked.[/QUOTE]
ah...that explains it.

Dude, this album ROCKS!!!

Vicinity of Obcenity, Lonely Day, She's Like Heroin, and Tentative are the best songs, imo. Way better than Mezmerize.

I new album is really great. There is not a bad song on it.

Hypnotize is definetely better than mesmerize. Better than all soad albums except toxicity. Toxicity is still their number 1 imo.

Hypnotize has lots of clean acoustic guitar work though.

Someone help me with the chorus to tentative..

We're going down in a spiral [what are these words?]

We're going down in a spiral putter ground? Or something like that.

can anybody link where I can download the leak.....I can't use the megaupload thing already posted.

[url]http://www.mininova.org[/url] has it.

Choose one that has crap load of seeds.

It says it's down for a couple of hours. :upset: I'll get it later, perhaps.

Heres the lyrics from tentative:
"We're going down, in a spiral to the ground, No One, No ones gonna save us now."


I love the lyrics to She's Like Heroin
"Chinese Tricks and rooms with ghosts of hooker girly-dudes"

Refering to buying a hooker only to find out "shes" a lady-boy? :lol:





If anyone wants to know some lyrics just ask, I've got a d[I]a[/I]mn good ear for SOAD :thumb:

[QUOTE=pasulpepe]WHAT? that was one of the best albums, toxicity got too commercial and popular, same with mesmerize[/QUOTE]
You think there bad because of being commercia? I thought STA was horrible. Anyone have/heard Hypnotize.

Well i just listened to Hypnotize and i have to say that it is way heavier than i expected. Serj and Daron out do themselves vocally on this album, it will take some time to grow on me though.

wait! how have u guys listened to all the songs? doesnt it come out on the 22nd?

Holy crap those screams in attack are pretty intense. This album is alot heavier and more intense than mezmerize. Isn't if funny how hypnotize is like the weakest track just like how BYOB was one of the weakest on the mezmerize? lol

So the Soil that did Halo isn't SOAD in disguise? And there's also Soilwork and so on that begin with soil, so I'm confuzzled....:confused:

As far as I know soilwork is a completely different band than soil which was soad. But I dont know much about old soad.

Its all conicidence.
Serj and Daron has a band called soil back before '95 then they formed SOAD consisting of:

Serj: Vocals
Daron: Guitar
Shavo: Bass
Andy: Drums

Andy left in '97 for reasons I cant remember right now, and they replaced him with John :thumb:

hypnotize.. heavier that mesmerize , more melodic than toxicity. its a great album, nothing like mesmerize

:D My first post here...

System of a Down is definitely my favorite band. Their "pure schitzofrenical" music is just the thing for me... Personally, I like the first 2 albums 100%. Best music ever. Songs like Spiders, War, Mind, Toxicity, Deer Dance, Sugar, Soil, Chop Suey and Aerials are godly... I can see that many people here have been disappointed by steal this album? WHY? How can u say that Mr Jack, Highway Song, Ego Brain, STREAMLINE, and others are not good... only Chick' N' Stu and .36 are shallower... Mesmerize waz quite puzzling to me... I like Question(the best), Cigaro, Byob, Sad Statue, Revenga, Radio/Video... and the new Hypnotize is awesome! Overall I think that we are to wait for many nice songs from them in the future.

About their live performances... serj is a great vocal, while daron... kinda sucks at this... and Shavo is pretty fast on bass I have seen him playing cigaro... the drummer also has some speed in him... so it's all ok :thumb:

See you around earthlings...

Daron KEEP SINGING!!!

IMO, BYOB was one of the best on Mezmorize.

Question owns. And Cigaro, and BYOB. People need to stop being purist. This [I]is[/I] pure SOAD 'cause it's still the same band playing and writing the music. So stfu you "loyal" fans of the "old" SOAD.

EDIT: I'm not talking to this guy, I'm talking to some other people on this thread.

Welcome to the forums man. :thumb:

[QUOTE=Stormrider331]IMO, BYOB was one of the best on Mezmorize.[/QUOTE]
It was my least favourite on the album.

[QUOTE=Jake]It was my least favourite on the album.[/QUOTE]

Same here, along with Cigaro. I really thought Mesmerize was going to be bad when those songs we leaked, but it turned out pretty good. I also fail to see why the majority of people hate Daron's vocals. I love them.

I like Daron's vocals, but not as much as Serj's. Although I like it best when Daron does backing vocals, they harmonize so nicely.
