Album Review

In most cases, bands put out these odds and sods collections for die-hard fans, to fulfill a record deal, or to stall while they're taking seven years to record a follow-up. Steal This Album!, on the other hand, definitely doesnot fit any of those ideals. First, it's almost impossible to think of this as an "outtakes" record. System of a Down has managed to make tracks from a seven-year period sound cohesive without having to embellish or sacrifice. Some might argue that maybe they're just treading water. Not true. If System proved anything with 2001's Toxicity, it's that they're one of the few breaths of fresh air out there in mainstream metal land. This collection is no different, and with its amazing pacing, it's hard to not be moved by what this band can do. Secondly, Steal This Album! has everything that a "normal" album release would have; it's heavy without being a burden, political without being condescending, and in some cases, downright beautiful. It's been mentioned that this is the link to what they've done and what they're moving towards. If that turns out to be true, the next one should be a monster.

An Album Worth Stealing

System of a Down in my opinion is without a doubt, the greatest music group of all time. There isn't any topic that System can't cover, and this album is recorded proof of that, this album has a touch of everything needed to make a an awesome album. Among my personal favorites are Chic N Stu, Bubbles, Boom!, Nuguns, ADD, Mr. Jack, I-E-A-I-A-I-O, and just about all of them. topics range from war, to power struggles. Rebellious lyrics to F' the system to Drug dealers. i have said it before, and i'll say it again, system is the greatest ever. And this is a great album if ur looking for something similar to Toxicity but a little different. And without a doubt, "Steal This Album" is an album worth stealing.

Biography

Formed: 1995

Vocalist Serj Tankian, guitarist Daron Malakian, bassist Shavo Odadjian, and drummer John Dolmayan formed System of a Down in Southern California in the mid-'90s. They quickly earned...
