I think it's a masterpiece. The last 50 seconds in particular are chilling. And when the last chord is played, you know you just heard greatness.

Reminds me of early 2000s high school. That's about it. Solid song though.

One of those bands on my bucket list to see before they hang it up.

I hope they come to NOLA in the future.

I've always liked it. It sounds like a Tool song.

Great song but probably one of my least favorite off of that album. Toxicity was so damn great.

Probably one of their most conventional songs. The thing about SOAD that makes them great is how unconventional their songs are. Aerials and maybe Lonely Day are the only songs that I consider normal.

Violent Pornography is a pretty entertaining song by them as well.

Serj and Daron have such unique voices. They can fricking sing.

Was the first song I ever learned to play when I picked up a guitar 13 years ago. Will always hold a very sentimental place in my heart.

I thought it was a good song. Not their best, but good.

The video was weird as frick. but they are a metal band. What metal band has a video that isn't weird?

SOAD will always be up there for me. Just such a unique sound between the vocals.

I felt that S.O.A.D. became a tad gimmicky and schtick-heavy after Toxicity. The circus antics threatened to swallow the music.

Still, such a unique band with a fresh sound. Some of the songwriting and lyrics were downright bizarre, but they made it work. Serj's voice commands your undivided attention. Underrated live band, too.

Music world needs that comeback album.
