What can I say about this album, if you have ever heard and liked System of a Down then you’ll both love and be annoyed by this album. You love it for it encapsulates System’s sound and feeling. While BYOB is the most stand out single track the others give opportunity to consider and dwell on their meaning. However, at just about 30mins long it is not long enough, you almost feel cheated, although it turns out that this is actually CD 1 in a two part set (the second part Hypnotize, is out end of 2005). Of course this album carries a Parental Advisory and for good reason a number of the songs are, well, explicit. It doesn’t bother me but I know that some people get touchy about it.
The songs all have their own unique feeling and tone, particularly the final song “Lost in Hollywood” which is the most mellow I have heard System in a while. System has always been political and biting about the state of our world and the policies in it, this album is no exception with some brutally frank lyrics about war, sex, pornography, fame and every stop in between.
In short, buy this album. It may be too short but it is well worth every minute and it has lots of repeatability in it.
