System of a Down (rock, favorite song, favorite band, albums, solo)

AwwSugar · 10-22-2008, 01:36 PM

I'd always respected them.

I didn't start liking them until my best friend's boyfriend was blasting them in the car one day and we were all rocking out- whatever, it was amazing. =D

What does everyone think about the solo albums? >.>

Serj's solo album is amazing. It's everything Toxicity was missing and more.

AwwSugar · 10-22-2008, 01:52 PM

Really?

Interesting.

Many fans of SOAD didn't seem to like that album of his.

FaSho · 10-22-2008, 03:45 PM

Well it's not nearly as hardcoreish, so fans of SOAD might not enjoy it as much, but just because it's a lot slower and more piano-fronted that desn't make it any worse than anything by SOAD

AwwSugar · 10-22-2008, 03:48 PM

That's very true.

I think it's because it isn't the same that they don't like it, though.

When a band comes out with something that veers away from society's perception of the band, people become confused.

I agree 100%, but they shouldn't have excpected Serj's solo project to sound like System of a Down in the first place.

I just like both

When Sonny Moore came out with his solo album, I was SO confused.

It was nothing LIKE From First To Last.

It was quite upsetting.

FaSho · 10-22-2008, 03:55 PM

Well, I didn't like his solo at all, but I'm not that big a From First To Last fan either, so I wasn't excpecting too much in the first place.

AwwSugar · 10-22-2008, 03:56 PM

Hehe.

I have a wide range in music taste, I suppose.

I love FFTL.

It isn't that I was expecting something, it was more that I was hoping it would change THAT much.

Which it did.

Which disappointed me.

Because Sonny was the best part of that band.

Ha.

You like Poison the Well by any chance? Kind of a mix of SOAD and FFTL in my opinion.
