    Re: System of a down

    I used to like them quite alot. But after the whole Mezmerize/Hypnotize hype exploded, the band just seemed to lose something in their music. Just my humble opinion.

    My brother's grown obsessed with them from the Mezmerize and Hypnotize. Personally, I liked their older stuff way better.

    I have never liked SOAD. Their sound & style most definitely arent my cup of tea so to speak....

    I love system of a down

    Especially the self intitled and hypnotize

    Re: System of a down

    I love em.  I mean, I LOVED em. Up until this double album thingy came out. The albums suck imo. what the hell happened to soad. Their first 2 albums showed so much promise... DAMNIT

    Re: System of a down

    I can't understand why people dislike both Mesmerize and Hypnotize

    I think Mesmerize is ok, but I can see why people wouldn't like it

    But Hypnotize is NOTHING like Mesmerize, and I think it's probably their best album apart from the self entitled

    Re: System of a down

    Never got in to them.  I can't acquire a taste for that whole screaming instead of singing stuff.  It's great when it's done in moderation (well, when it's done right I should say because we all know there are some bands that just seem to scream for no reason and at really awkward points in the song, lol), but to me SOAD does take it a bit overboard.  Too much for my taste anyway.  I do know people who LOVE them though.  They've done well for themselves for sure.

    Re: System of a down

    after hearing that their last album was just over 30 minutes long by my freind, i came to conlcusion that the band is horrible. i never liked them and practically hate them. their the type of band theat ur obsessed with at first, then your musical taste matures and you realize 'hey they suck ass' much like the band korn, or should i say koRn for all you people that still like that washed up band.

    Re: System of a down

    Love this band!! Been listening to them quite a bit lately. Personally, Mezmerize and Hypnotize are my fav. albums from them. Political music generally appeals to me right off the bat (if it's well written) so I was natually attracted to these albums.

    Re: System of a down

    Soad is my third favorite band (Alice and Mushroomhead being the first two). Steal This Album is my favorite CD, it's just mixed up and its cool. Don't get why people don't like the last two albums, I love them, but to each his own.

    It left the same first impression on me, but it's musically deeper than it seems at first. If you really get into the feeling you can understand how they're not just metal to be metal kindof stuff. Much of it sounds based on slavic and russian music.
