Favourite SOAD Album?

Washing Machine · 04.24.2006, 03:37 AM

Okay Im far from being a metal fan (as most of the people on this site probebly are lol) But there is something about Soad's sound that puts them far and above all the carbon copy metal bands out there. So im just wondering if anyone has a favourite album from these insane metal heroes!

I hated metal a year ago until i was educated now a lot of the music i listen to is metal.

Try Isis, pelican, Jesu and Mastodon for some good introductory metal.

the first one by a mile, that's the only album i've heard by them that's any good and has some great songs overall

toxicity is like 1/3 good really, but it was so hyped and the singles were so popular that most people assume it's their best. but it's not that good in my opinion.

i haven't heard steal this record but i didn't like the singles. and mezmerize/hypnotize, besides byob, they are the worst by far.

and granted, they are the most annoying band on earth. but the first record is pretty sweet

marleypumpkin · 04.24.2006, 11:00 AM

"Steal This Album" For me, I like the simplicity of the album. The songs were fucking great. & there weren't that many single from that record that were hyped beyond believe.
I don't care what anyone says, I love SOAD!

Washing Machine:
Did you ever get to download those live SOAD tracks that I posted?

Sn@ke · 04.24.2006, 01:32 PM

they are boring.

marleypumpkin · 04.24.2006, 01:59 PM

Well, your entitled to your opinion, & I'm entitled to mine.
There's no fucking reason why you should try & belittle someone just because they like a certain group that you don't. Back the fuck up & let us enjoy OUR music. DAMN IT!

Trasher02 · 04.24.2006, 02:01 PM

don't like the band...

marleypumpkin · 04.24.2006, 02:04 PM

Well, like I said, your entitled to your opinion & I'm entitld to mine.

There's nothing that any of you can say to get me to stop liking SOAD.

Systeuhm oaf euh deuwhn. Euhvry beuhdis geuying teuh the peuhty have a reuhlly geuhd teuhme. Angels deuhserve teuh deuh.

Oh man do any of you have that fucking friend who listens to NOTHING but System of a Down? And that's like all they've listened to for the past 4 years non stop? Like EVERY time you see them you realise they're STILL listening to Angels deserve to die, or smack my bitch up, or that other nonsense? It never surprises me how retarded people are

marleypumpkin · 04.24.2006, 02:54 PM

I'm not that bad into SOAD, but you have to realise this band is about more than just music. I really suggest looking up some info on the causes & charities this band supports. I know they have there stupid songs that are real comical, but give them a break.
Who doesn't make songs you can laugh at.

krastian · 04.24.2006, 03:05 PM

Is it even a question? Their debut! They used to be pretty fucking awesome and psychotic and now they suck. To me it's because of the idiot guitarist that had to put his horrible voice everywhere especially on the last two which pretty much sucked. I mean if this guy wanted to sing his stupid songs with his stupid lyrics then he should have put out a solo record. Leave the lead vocals to the Serj guy.

EyeballGrowth · 04.24.2006, 07:52 PM

I don't give a shit about causes or meanings in music, especially not stupid rockstars that like to protest against things they know nothing about. I never listen to the words in songs because I don't give a shit. Because music is what interests me, not poetry. That's what so many bands have the wrong idea about. They spend all their time devising what they're gonna rant and protest about next in their songs, and less time writing music. Also how exactly does " Crying when angels deserve to die " or " Smacking my bitch up in Hollywood " relate to charities or causes? My opinion is they are a stupid obnoxious untalented band, the key word really is OBNOXIOUS. I don't like annoying obnoxious sounding music. This is what a system of a down song sounds like" Grrn grrn grrn grrn grrn * insert lots of boring dropped d non melodic guitar parts here * BLAAAAAAAAH blah blah blah blah blah blah RORRORRRRRRRRRRR RARRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!! I LIKE TO SHOUT LIKE A MORON AND BE OBNOXIOUS AND GROWLLLLLLLLLL ABOUT HOW I'M A RICH POTSMOKING ROCKSTARRRRRR AND AMERICA AND GEORGE BUSH ARE DESTROYING EVERYTHINGGGGG!!!!! EVEN THOUGH I DON'T KNOW SHIT ABOUT WHAT'S GOING ON IN THE US AND I DON'T GIVE A SHIT CAUSE I'M A RICH POTSMOKING IDIOTTTTT. IT'S MY JOB TO SMOKE POT AND WRITE POEMS ABOUT CORPORATE AMERICAS STRANGLEHOLD ON WHATEVER CAUSE I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT THE FUCK I'M TALKING ABOUT

The thing that I really can't fucking stand about them is their fans. The little hot topic kids that sit around spewing a bunch of bullshit about how System is one of the most talented bands to come out of the past 6 years blah blah blah, they mix all different styles of music. I actually walked up to the damn kid and said " WHAT? What other styles of music do they mix aside from heavy metal. TELL ME please!! " He says " Opera " ....................... that's the most ingenious thing I've ever heard.

Proud Marie · 04.24.2006, 08:23 PM
