Soad : Steal this Album

Jdeezay · 12-02-2002, 10:47 PM

Just curious of what you guys thought of this CD. You can certainly tell old material from newer stuff on it. Roulette seems to be the most promising song on the cd, STA isnt thier best work in my opinion but its a collection of old work so...cant really say that i guess.

What do the rest of you think?

I think its great, some of it does sound quite similiar to Toxicity but its generally great music. System of a Down is fast becoming my favorite band and I can't wait for their next album. Its funny that an album of "throw away" songs is better than most regular albums I have been buying lately. Really sucks buying music to find out it sucks, but I'm not a big fan of downloading MP3's and stuff.

They have to diversify their sound more, and songs like "Aerials" and "Roulette" are serving that end quite nicely. That's not to say Soad isn't a diverse band in general, but I like them when they slow down sometimes.

Totally agree with you OriginalClone, almost always thier slower more melodic are far superior to the fast paced songs. There are exceptions like Prison Song, Sugar, Suite-pee , etc but...

Unoriginal album name! Hell, 'Steal This Record' was even overdone when The Suicide Machines released their most recent album with that title.

and the coup!

I was thinking that about the album title. Nothing worse than trying to be daring and bad and then realizing someone did it before you.. twice :| (at least?)

I dont care for SoaD but my kid sister loves them...she stole if off the internet while I was home for the holidays....*shrug* they asked for it.

Regardless they are just ripping off "Steal this book" by Abbie Hoffman

*shrug* Life is like a river...like umm...shit repeats or something.

It's a average cd, I would have had toxicity have Fuck the system and Innervision then Chop seuy and Arilliels.
