I love this band.

I forgot about them, but then i put in toxocoty and remembered their greatness, anyone else like them?

OMG, DUDE. What a coincidence. I love them. A lot of people dont like them because they are arab, but wtf, where is America going? Are we now racists or do we have prejudices against other ethnicities or/and religions. First CD is so political though. I love it! Especially P.L.U.C.K. for its lyrics. 2nd cd is best though. Thats toxicity, first is self titled!

What about Steal This Album?

EDIT - They are Armenian and all the better for it!

yes thats odd becasue i listened to them a lot about a year or so ago and a few days ago i just remebered them and started listening to them again. a very good band. my favorite cd by them is probably Toxicity, fav song is aerials or forest.

Yeah, they're a good band. My favorite songs are: Prison Song, Needles, Psycho, Sugar, and Jet Pilot. I didn't really like this band at first, but they grew on me.

shadowsniper · 05-27-2004, 02:49 AM

same here. I didnt like them at first, I thought they were to heavy for me then I got into it and then I got into metal, lol. Black Metal though, death metal isnt as great I think. Yeah, Armenian, I knew that, but they arent all from Armenia, Jon is from Lebanon, an ex-french colony that is many arab. I just said arab because most people think of the middle east when I say that and Armenia is near Turkey, so... But yeah, none the less, ur right.

SOAD goofy? Hm, dont know what your relating too Nick, hehe.
My favorite songs are:
Temper, Metro, Starlit Eyes, Snowblind, Psycho, Highway Song, ATWA, P.L.U.C.K., Forest, Science, Streamline, Thetawaves, and War?. Well thats a lot of songs, but really, they rock it out and I love them. I like some others that are close to the same level of passion towards them, but my real favorites are Temper, Metro, Starlit Eyes, Snowblind, Psycho, Highway Song, P.L.U.C.K., and thats it. Those are my favorite favorite. Its hard to choose you know. Anyways, later.
