Since this is a System of a Down forum, I'm curious what people think of this review.

http://www.pitchforkmedia.com/record-reviews/s/system-of-a-down/mezmerize-hypnotize.shtml

Personally I don't like the album that much. I'd be curious to hear what points people here disagree with.

They do make some good points. I still want both of those albums. :p

Wow, I was surprised to find the topic starter not Victor Van Dort.

SAJN's too busy listening to Hypnotize :p

i like it.

[edit]and never listen to pitchfork media, if it isnt bland strummy unoriginal uninspired indie blandness, they hate it.[/edit].

after reading the review again and in a slightly more anibriated state... he needs to get cancer for having such an opinionated stance, now i remember why i hate pitchfork...

hell, i even hate their lower scoring reviews for albums i despise.

USA Today 3.5/4

Rolling Stones 3.5/4

Stuff Magazine 9/10

Play Louder 4.5/5

Metacritic 82/100 (Users 86/100)

Music OHM "This is perhaps the finest, and most important heavy metal album of the twenty-first century so far."

Los Angeles Times: 3.5/4

Entertainment Weekly B+

The New York Times "The band's best album so far."

I'm with you. I've liked their other stuff a heck of a lot more... These albums are pretty much just annoying.

quoted for what I was gonna say.
