New System of a Down single (B.Y.O.B)
2005-03-24, 2:15 PM #1
YES! I've been waiting for freaking ages for this. I am pleased with this..yes VERY pleased. It's like punk rock meets hardcore. I know that sounds bad, just listen. These album so far sounds totally different then their previous albums, but it still keeps their style. I can't wait for these freaking albums... Listen to the whole song, because it starts off really screamy, but it gets 'better'.

Lyrics (Not official, just from some guy with too much time)

WHY DO THEY ALWAYS SEND THE POOR?!
My God Is a hyperblood? with morning eels
Victorious Victorious eel
then you stretch and kneel
marching forward hypocritic
and hypnotic computers
you depend on our protection
yet you feed us lies from the tablecloth
la la la la la la la la la la
everybody is going to the party
have a real good time
dancing in the desert
blowing up the sunshine
kneeling roses disappearing
in the motors of our mouth
breaking into Fort Knox
stealing our intentions
and they're stealing bread and oil
crying freedom
and to do a salition
still you feed us lies from the tablecloth
la la la la la la la la la la
everybody is going to the party
have a real good time
dancing in the desert
blowing up the sunshine
everybody is going to the party
have a real good time
dancing in the desert
blowing up the sunshine
blast off, it's party time
and we all live in a fascist nation
blast off, it's party time
and where the **** are you?
Where the **** are you?
Where the **** are you?
Why don't presidents fight the war?
Why do they always send the poor?
Why don't presidents fight the war?
Why do they always send the poor?
Why do they always send the poor?
Why do they always send the poor?
Why do they always send the poor?
Kneeling roses disappearing
in the motors of dry mouth
breaking into Fort Knox
stealing our intentions
and they're stealing bread and oil
crying freedom
and to do a salition
still you feed us lies from the tablecloth
la la la la la la la la la la
everybody is going to the party
have a real good time
dancing in the desert
blowing up the sunshine
everybody is going to the party
have a real good time
dancing in the desert
blowing up the sun...
where the **** are you?
Where the **** are you?
Why don't presidents fight the war?
Why do they always send the poor?
Why don't presidents fight the war?
Why do they always send the poor?
Why do they always send the poor?
Why do they always send the poor?
Why...do...they always send the poor?
Why...do...they always send the poor?
Why...do...they always send the poor?
They always send the poor!
They always send the poor!

meh.

can't say as I'm extremely impressed. It's not necessarily bad, but I've heard a lot better from SoaD.
If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice.

Lassev: I guess there was something captivating in savagery, because I liked it.

this tune is quality.
2005-03-24, 6:08 PM #4
I don't like it at all, except for the part about the party and the dancing.
2005-03-24, 6:28 PM #5
I miss old SoaD

Stop complaining. New SoaD is 10x better then old SoaD. They started off as generic hard rock, now they are practically a genre of their own. Toxicity and Steal This Album both had tunes that were original and new, and these two new albums are just as if not more amazing. From the 4 songs that I have heard so far, Kill Rock and Roll, Cigaro, Holy Mountain, and now BYOB, I can tell you all of them have a unique sound. Old SoaD wasn't bad, it just wasn't nearly as good as they are now. You can see how much they have progressed. They now sound as good live as on CD, Serj has developed a real singing voice, and Daron is more in the mix then ever. The band has really gone from a regular band to something special, and that's why SoaD rocks. Not only their music, but they themselves have become more complex.

I like STA! more than any of the new stuff I've heard.
2005-03-25, 2:22 AM #8
nah, i still think the first album is the best of what i've heard.

This tune is way better than the other two albums though.

And i could honestly say that they've never been "generic hard rock", their armenian roots has always had a strange effect on their music that puts it on its own compared to most bands.

1) So yeah, I'm not allowed to not like the new sound they've adopted?

2) I love the original album, toxicity...it's okay...then STA is a GREAT album.

3) This is a totally new, and different sound for them. And not on I wholly like.

I'll complain as much as I want, why don't you stop shoving your ideas down other people's throats? Seriously SAJN, it's getting old.

SAJN I fail to see what warrants you being rude to Yoshi. I agree with him. I prefer to listen to old SoaD. If I even listen to them at all. (which is hardly ever)

I'm sorry someone may have insulted your favorite band, but thats something you have to accept sometimes.

Oh no! Someone insulted my favorite band. T3h w0rl is 0v4r!

...

What are you guys talking about?

I posted a thread about the new SoaD single and he posts "I miss the old SoaD", So I told him to stop cpmplaining (he posted somethign similar on another SoaD thread), and I posted reasons why they improved. Sheesh people.

You act like I care about people hating SoaD. My best friend can't stand them, what do I care?

Your reasons for improvement are opinions people find highly incorrect, stop complaining.

You ruined your own thread. Good job.

And BYOB - it's okay. But it's not the SOAD I used to love. :(

The first album was the best. Come on, it had Suggestions, Sugar, PLUCK, Suite-Pee, Spiders... oh wait, nevermind, it's wasn't that good. SAJN said so.
2005-03-25, 10:40 PM #17
I love all SOAD.
Serj Tankian rox my sox.

I heard this song on the radio again, and I really like the mellower parts in it.

But I really hate political music like this.
