It is hard to cover so people toss it off. The lyrics are too much for people to understand or handle. Everything great takes time, just wait in 20 years people will be saying their influences and you know he will be discovered over and over..
lol i only found this stuff a month or so back and ive been a fan since i was 16 and im almost 36... the system hid it well but now its pretty much all i listen to :P
Hey fellas. Good to connect with other fans. SOAD got me into metal and no matter what weird pornogrind band or crust punk I get into, SOAD will always have my most love and respect... I don't care if "punks" call bands like these "sellouts" for being popular.... LOL... Everyone's egos desire "success"
Daron and Serj needed their personal artistic space. They got it and they both created masterpieces. Daron's 2 albums (Scars on Broadway) and Serj's albums are my SOAD version 2. This amazing. One of the most unique music. Now they are together again.
John Dolmayan has also put out his own music too and its pretty good. Starman and Road to Nowhere are both very good songs (i mean they have Serj vocaling them but are still written by John)
agreed, although it would be nice if they were back together for almost any other reason than due to a new attempt by Turks via Azerbaijan to wipe out the Armenians
There are so many great songs on this album, but I think Butterfly is my favorite. The line, "we are being sacrificed by our own suspicions" always hits me. It is so true. Our suspicions make us feel emboldened, and hatred gives us a certain strength, but it is laced with poison.
Damn this is awesome! But I just can't stop thinking about the potential these songs would have if you'd add some daron into the mix :-P I wish daron would be musically more open minded. At this point I really think that Serj wasn't the problem in the first place. He just wanted to experiment a bit.
Also Daron's solo albums are fantastic.i can't say which one is better. I think SoAd must make a new album with covering their solo works( Daron, Serj and maybe other bands) just like garage Inc. ( Metallica)
😋😎 the song "harakiri" always reminds me of Willy Wonka when Gene Wilder says " ...we are the dreamers of the dreams.. come along" when they're in the boat ride. Awesome.
I still don't understand how SOAD can't look eye to eye creatively : / this could easily be a SOAD song with Daron and John's input. Daron's work has been okay so I don't know how his input would be nowadays but fuck... I miss the band.
This and Imperfect Harmonies are fantastic albums. I love his use of samples, and I become the Leonardo DiCaprio meme every time I hear a sample that I have used in my own music. Jazz Iz Christ is great too.
Men’s purposes have been inflicted on me since age three. In the orange cottage with all of those refrigerators. The doors on them pinched my fingers when I tried to get out of them. It was no use. My fingers just ended up as raw as my eyes. When they were done with the solitary Freon confinement of hunting coolers. I saw the eye 👁 before I even spoke words. The eye has always been with me, at times it was a comfort. Like when I was shoved under a concrete boat launch, my chin still carries the scar of that day. Those were the easiest abuses to survive, but abuse is a virus. The cat calls started when I was just 12. I cannot tell you how many times I’ve been raped... I try not to count. Numbers haunt me.
Maybe my sister knew about the hair thing. She started cutting it before I can remember. She always protected me. I just got used to it, so kept my hair short for most of my life. I even pulled the GI Jane shit for several years. I wonder if that’s how you got to rise so high? I kept my hair away from everyone
As a big fan of SOAD I thought I would give both Sers and Daron a chance and listen to their solo albums. There are some good moments on this album, but I generally don´t feel it. The new album I sadly can´t stand at all. Daron´s "scars of broadway" has some song that is ok, but damn I miss SOAD!
@JW Stuff serj is way better daron I mean they are both talented singeres but his lyrics aren't as deep as serj's but personally I liked it when they were both together serj's melodic voice with darons more metally voice
@@goranhrastovik5364 which is why I don't understand where him and Daron aren't looking eye to eye in their songwriting :( maybe they just don't like where they are as songwriters right now.
Not to take away from serj music. I really like what he has been able to do on his own. Great message.....just missing Darren I think his name was, the backup singer complimented him so well
When my oldest son was born, baby daddy turned violent. He was a just a scared drunk, and I was the closest cat to kick. I had to leave the state, for my safety and my son didn’t need to see that shit. I ended up in a Holiday Inn in FL. It was walking distance to some Carnival/ Amusement Park. There was a little oddities shop there. The woman who worked the cash stand was an Asian woman (my age) who was pregnant with no family here. We made friends, and I walked over to visit her everyday. She was my only friend in the world. She couldn’t write in English, but she wrote me a haiku. She told me what it meant when she gave it to me, and I told her that I would keep it close to my heart always. Later that day, I had the title of the poem tattooed between my breasts
The descending chords in Cornucopia remind me of Dark Entries by Bauhaus. I just watched What's In My Bag with Serj Tankian earlier, and he said Ministry had a huge influence on him. The Revolting Cocks, another group with input from Al Jourgensen, did a cover version of Dark Entries maybe 10 years ago. Lol, I'm rambling. Just excited to be listening to Serj Tankian again. I loved the first SOAD album then developed an elitist attitude problem that kept me from enjoying any following albums until a few years ago.
Nah, I was hoping I'd find a comment pointing that out. I thought maybe my speakers are starting to go bad (and maybe they are) but I just got done listening to Elect The Dead just as loud and didn't get the impression that the quality was this low. Something else that's odd is the second track doesn't sound as low quality as the first track. I'm really quite baffled. Lol. Pretty much all the rest has sounded like the first track, though, it's kinda annoying.
I'm gonna say it, I respect Serj's works (SOAD is fucking awesome and all single albums rocks) and appreciate his messages, but I do not agree with it. Not always, of course
I wonder how many barrels of oil were burnt in order to create this master piece, how many to create each instrument, to mobilize the crew and performers, to fabricate the plastic for the physical copies and other merchandise... There's no way around capitalism :)
I remember at least 30 years ago when everything could be taken apart and cleaned, oiled and fixed. Fans and vacuums would last for decades. This plastic molded junk isn't repairable even the 20$ fans are usually only good for one year of use. I still have a forty year old fan that totally kicks ass, it just needs cleaning occasionally. Plus don't forget all the clothes and virtually everything else people use is now made from oil.
Well firstly, if there's no way around capitalism, you sure could've fooled people living under communism. Capitalism is a political ideology in favor of private ownership over state ownership, it doesn't necessarily have to do with the production of products deemed unnecessary. There's plenty of instances of capitalism not being the dirty game it can admittedly be. Personally, I don't think there's a political ideology of the sort that beats capitalism, when not abused. I mean, what would you rather live under, absolutism, anarchy, autocracy, aristocracy, a dictatorship, oligarcy, theocracy, totalitarianism, fascism, monarchy? I can't say I'm in favor of any of those.
I really wanted to like this album but compared to Elect the Dead and SOAD; Serj's music and lyrics have regressed in quality. Also, I really don't feel the passion behind them either and that is honestly the most important to me. I think he took on way too many projects at once, didn't devote enough time to each them individually and all of them suffered because of it.
I've been a SOAD fan since age 10 and now Im turning 28.. I can't believe i barely found this!!!
It is hard to cover so people toss it off. The lyrics are too much for people to understand or handle. Everything great takes time, just wait in 20 years people will be saying their influences and you know he will be discovered over and over..
Me too brother me too..
Ching chime composition really sounds like Nookie

@serj and @john
This is a timeless album. Serj is one of the only famous people who I feel like you could genuinely trust.
Odd thing to say about someone you never met.
But then he takes the jab 😢
@@sculptedfromnothing7998yes? because he isn't stupid?
Elect the Dead and Harakiri are my two favourite albums by Serj including all SOAD albums. They're so heavy!
One of thee greatest albums ever made right here!! The memories serj and systems music brings back are so missed!!!
39:42 idk why but i love this part so much
lol
One my FAVORITE albums of all Time!!😊🎧🎼🎶🎵🎶🎵🎵🎵🎵🇺🇸
🤘🏻🤘🏻🎤🎤💖
Serj best solo album, period.
Elect the dead with bonus tracks... that one is the one
I love this one, but elect the the dead is superior imo.
As much as I like this album, I think Elect The Dead (plus the symphonic ver) still better, more timeless and surely will be classic in the future

Best of best . This album is the greatest work of serj tankian as a single artist.
Im sandwiching this and the new Scars to make a System of a Down Lite.
I prefer Scars
Yea theres afew songs that would have been cool to hear if system had played this kinda style
lul, same^^
Engrish your home. Cool.
Me too. They are unique as hell. Daron and Serj are amazing.
This is addictive ... I like it a lot and Scars also ...
This album is cool. Only criticism would be that Serj has such a powerful voice it's a shame he keeps it so tame even at his hardest.
Esse e o cara o melhor
There are so many great songs on this album, but I think Butterfly is my favorite. The line, "we are being sacrificed by our own suspicions" always hits me. It is so true. Our suspicions make us feel emboldened, and hatred gives us a certain strength, but it is laced with poison.

When Daron and serj combine forces with the rest of the members of SOAD , They make magic together. Here's keeping hope alive. They would kill IMO
This is a masterpiece ❤️❤️❤️

Every moment that passes I have less and less will over this flesh of mine which can’t seem to find it’s purpose at all. I’m rotting
Men’s purposes have been inflicted on me since age three. In the orange cottage with all of those refrigerators. The doors on them pinched my fingers when I tried to get out of them. It was no use.

The Masons, Scottish Rite, the Rosecurians, the Egyptians, and even DeKlerk (fuck that guy) came to me. Now you need to.
I already wrote the poem for the Priory of Sion. They been known I am alive, not very alive but alive.
Maybe my sister knew about the hair thing. She started cutting it before I can remember. She always protected me. I just got used to it, so kept my hair short for most of my life. I even pulled the GI Jane shit for several years. I wonder if that’s how you got to rise so high? I kept my hair away from everyone

Merci! :) la musique de Serj Tankian est celle qui est de bonne compagnie dans n´importe quel moment.
Je suis d'accord, bisous !
Serj Tankian is an excellent singer! But I prefer and miss his old band SOAD
the album is not very different from SOAD sound
dont we all?

yeah

Hoping you are better, all goods for you
