-- Posted by JuggleFoe on 11:56 am on Dec. 27, 2001 i just gave these to j.a. for christmas. system of a down: toxicity, static x: wisconsin death trip, and cradle of filth: bitter suites to succubi. truthfully, i've been digging s.o.a.d. and static x since their latest videos came out. seeing system on the "pledge" tour didn't hurt. cradle of filth is an entirely different story. i've hated them for seemingly no reason as long as i can remember. recently j.a. and i saw a video for "born in a burial gown", and i couldn't stop laughing. i think i realized that these guys don't take themselves nearly as seriously as i thought they did. anyhow, of the three, i have to say that "toxicity" is the most ambitious. it's possibly one of the best albums i've heard in a while. it transitions from absurd to haunting to hard as hell, and manages not to sound like a clusterfuck. -- Posted by DV on 9:31 pm on Dec. 30, 2001 I agree, Toxcicity kicks some serious rectum. In a related note, I found a copy of Slipknot's new cd used for 9 bucks. I grabbed it. It's not bad at all. -- Posted by JuggleFoe on 10:04 am on Dec. 31, 2001 yeah, i was thinking that i'd pick that up, too. -- Posted by Amor Fati on 12:07 pm on Dec. 31, 2001 I love the way that lead singer from SOAD looks...Kick ass Armenian dude... -- Posted by JuggleFoe on 2:16 pm on Dec. 31, 2001 he reminds me of frank zappa. -- Posted by DV on 4:15 pm on Dec. 31, 2001 Only more excentric. -- Posted by Amor Fati on 8:08 am on Jan. 1, 2002 I like that sound with melodious chorus and rapping - like verses. Whatever that son'gs called. -- Posted by JuggleFoe on 11:28 am on Jan. 1, 2002 that could be a lot ot songs. you're probably thinking about "chop suey" or "toxicity"... -- Posted by Amor Fati on 3:10 pm on Jan. 1, 2002 Chop suey, that's the one. The video is pretty cute too. -- Posted by JuggleFoe on 3:12 pm on Jan. 1, 2002 yeah. the guitarist is one fudly mofo. you should check the album out, i think you'd like it. -- Posted by Amor Fati on 3:50 pm on Jan. 1, 2002 A friend will bring it to me after the holidays. -- Posted by JuggleFoe on 3:55 pm on Jan. 1, 2002 groovy.
