if you've been thinking about picking up the
system of a down disc, 'mezmerize', stop thinking and do it. it's awesome. or killer. or the shiznit, or whatever you kids call it these days. if you're a soad fan, you should love this.
hard hitting, political, great rifs, crazy lyrics. just what you've come to expect from them.
just thought you'd all want to know.

Man, don't you have a job or something?? lol
I'm kidding. I am sure Scott will be all over this, I just don't think I can get into an album with a song called Violent Pornography on it.

I have heard the CD and while I won't go as far as JBD, I'll say that the CD is verry good IF your into System Of A Down. If your not then you may or may not like it at all

agreed, toxicskin. soad is certainly an acquired taste. and i do believe that 'this cocaine makes me feel like i'm on this song' is one of teh best song titles i've heard in awhile.

I had the chorus in my signature a couple months ago. I can't get enough of the whole album.

I don't really listen to that crazy ghetto-rap music...

I don't listen to death polka. What's your point?

i think his point, GH, is that while system of a down is indeed crazy, it is most certainly not ghetto rap music (not that there's anything wrong with ghetto rap music, which happens to be one of my favorite genres).
i'm not sure how it would be classified, perhaps as 'alternative'. i could describe it for you, but they'd have to move this thread to smack, because it would involve quite a few bad words.

SOAD gets played on my favorite metal station, so I call it metal.

SOAD songs are usually chock full of political messages. This one happens to end with
It's on the TV
*explative*
Turn off your TV
Can you say "brainwashing?"
It's a non-stop disco
