Granted, the lyrics have taken a slight dip. But how can you not appreciate Mike's godlike talent on the guitar? The solos were superb. Incubus fans, don't bother comparing ACLOTM to their previous albums. With the band's new path, it's like comparing a slice of cake to a piece of steak. It cannot be done rationally! I'd go with A Crow Left of the Murder, Sick Sad Little World, Here in My Room, and Leech. Please avoid Pistola, Smile Lines, and Southern Girl, if you happen to hate southern girls.System of a Down MezmerizeSystem of a Down Toxicity3.0 goodA Perfect Circle Mer de NomsBlindside About A Burning FireChevelle Vena SeraChevelle Wonder What's NextIncubus (USA-CA) Light GrenadesAll the hype about Incubus's new album was mostly for naught. Whether comparing to any other album, or just judging the album with a blank slate, this was truly a disappointment. Mike's skills on the guitar are being pacified so that we can all enjoy Brandon's unsuccessful exploration into higher octaves. I thought he would have learned his lesson after ACLOTM. The baselines (except in Diamonds and Coal) are rather uninspired. If you're looking for the reliable turntables on this album, you'll starve to death. It's really more easy listening kind of music, but some songs are difficult to bear at all (Oil and Water, Earth to Bella, Light Grenades, and Love Hurts). Anna Molly, Paper Shoes, and Pendulous Threads are pretty alright. Oh, and in case you didn't know that all diamonds start as coal, listen to this album: they'll tell you about it exactly 11 times on track nine.System of a Down Steal This Album!System of a Down System of a Down2.5 averageCrossfade Crossfade2.0 poorA Perfect Circle eMOTIVeSystem of a Down HypnotizeEasily the worst System album. Serj is the only lead singer for me, no matter how frighteningly unbearable Daron's voice gets. The tracks just blur together because of the lack of creativity. I'm trying to think of my favorite track, but it's proving difficult. There are no "bad" songs, really. But nothing stands out for me. The final piece of Soldier Side wasn't nearly as good as the Intro from Mezmerize. If you haven't bought this... keep it that way.
