Can we all agree this album is 10/10?
I don't even like metal all that much anymore but I just gave this another listen this morning and goddamn it's great
Their debut is better.
>>71241068
came here to say this
also a lot of the early demo tapes and b-side songs are pretty great
>>71241068
I disagree. It's too experimental and I find it's produced kinda weird, if that makes sense. Toxicity has a much more defined sound and they pull it off great. Their debut is good but Toxicity is alot better.
Bring Your Own Bombs is one of the best songs of my lifetime
>>71241123
>too experimental
lol that's what makes it so great
salsa/polka/whatever other shit in their songs, plus the energy was so high and they were especially fucking crazy at the time
toxicity is a bunch of DUN DUN DUN DUN DUN DUN DUN DUN powerchords with a couple middle eastern sounding riffs thrown in
but the real goat is mesmerize + hypnotize
>>71241201
Nah, self titled is all over the place and not nearly as consistent as Toxicity
>>71241307
I don't see that at all, debut seemed coherent in its craziness
you could argue toxicity is more coherent, but that's most because it has more boring songs
>>71241049
Are this and STA the metal equivalents of Kid A and Amnesiac?
>>71241147
byob is shite
>>71241391
Maybe. Soad gets more flack than radiohead though
also sta > toxicity > self-titled > mezmerize > hypnotize
>>71241455
I'll fuck u till u love me faggot
mariachi limp bizkit
>>71241511
teenage girl/boy who only listens to soad detected
Genuinelly good band which is too famous for its own good.
>>71242332
why is this band so popular among teenage girls?
>>71242568
Teenage girls have shit taste in music. SOAD is alright, but not worthy of all the hype.
Suite-pee is their best song prove me wrong
>>71241391
they're both nu metal, and there's more experimental nu metal out there.
look at Korn's debut or some proto nu metal like Primus, Nine Inch Nails, or Ministry.
>>71242803
Korn is garbage, don't lump it with Primus, NIN or Ministry even though Ministry is shit for edgy kids who aren't edgy enough for EYEHATEGOD
>>71242991
EYEHATEGOD is fucking trash
>>71242991
korn was good, what makes you think they're bad? Freak on a Leash is better than half of /mu/core
>>71243210
>>71241307
>Toxicity
>consistent
>when X and Shimmy exist
Nah.
>>71243435
X is a good song and Shimmy is one of the best songs on the album. Nigger what
>>71243526
yea tru
>>71241391
god i hope so, those four albums are basically my two favorites of each band
>>71241238
if mesmerize and hypnotize were 1 album it would be really good but both have 4 really fucking awful songs
>>71241111
They're debut is amazing, but spiders, cubert, and pluck are too underwhelming, the album is also all over the place and not necessarily in a great way
also, can you link some of their b-sides?
>>71241201
>>71243526
>>71243435
>>71241049
the only bad/redundant song on the LP has to be jet pilot bc its literally like 2 chords the entire song
>>71241455
>>71242795
tru
>>71241455
only because normies take the chorus literally
listening to their debut for the first time, it's pretty great. Before this I saw SOAD as "le grandma should put on makeup xD" band, didn't think they were genuinely good
>>71244324
no, only because it's not that good of a song.
>>71243986
Can you name what those 4 awful songs are from each of the 2 exactly?
this album is underrated
>>71246439
probably my favorite album other than toxicity ofc
