What were your opinions on this album? I think "Kill Rock n' Roll" and "She's Like Heroin" are my favorites here, though "Vicinity of Obscenity" is highly entertaining, though a bit annoying at times. I like the first half of the album, but the second half seems to drag in places where the quirkiness wears off. However, I do enjoy the album, and I listen to at least half of it regularly lately, so I feel it was a worthy purchase. I'm not sure if it will convert any new SOAD fans though. |

the title track is the one playing, and it's one of the lower points of the album. but if you download anything, try "Kill Rock n Roll" and "She's Like Heroin." |

the new albums pure shit, the other one on the other hand is not too bad, there's a few unique songs with good tunes, and the mastering is quite good. |

Tthey'll never again reach the high point of Toxicity. That really was a masterpiece as far as the rock/metal genre is concerned, every track was immaculate. Since then they've released Steal This Album! (which was disappointing but alright when one considers they were tracks which didn't make it onto the first two albums) and the last two -ize albums which are frankly abismal. System have lost the uniqueness which made them such an original band at the turn of the millenium. Anti-American rock which was so compellingly rebellious when albums like The Battle of Los Angeles came out has now been made uncool by pop-punk twats like Green Day and so System have had to distance themselves from what was their sound. The result is two tame albums which are too short and forgetful. Disappointing. |

"...two tame albums which are too short and forgetful." It's actually just one 80 minute album, released in two parts to maximize profit. They admit as much. But I thought mezmerize was wonderful. Hypnotize is probably not as good, being the kind of b-sides release that it is. |

i dont like SOAD. I'm not a real fan of the music in general, but i do think they are very good at what they're doing. I just don't like the music that much :) oh, and i hate the singer's face... he looks like the fucking male Cher |

everytime i hear that song coming from my coworker's cube i cringe. definitely not enjoyable to my ears, sounds very whiney. i enjoyed their first release a few years ago, but i can no longer listen to it. |
