If this was a side project maybe....
I bought mezmerize and was somewhat dissapointed. The songs I liked I really liked but the majority of the album sucked. For some reason I thought this one might be better and I was wrong. If I didn't know better I would have thought they got a new lead singer, but of course I knew from the last album that annoying voice belongs to some other band member. Doing some back up vocals would be allrigt or maybe having one song in the spot light would be fine as well, but when I purchase music from a band I'm used to rocking out to and there is another voice ALL OVER the album I feel like I was tricked into buying someone elses CD. If you like system of a down this is not the album for you. This is SOAD's side project with Serj on backup vocals. The few songs he does sing in suck anyway. If I was SOAD I would quit before putting out any more crap like this with my name on it. If the other guy wants to sing that bad let him start his own band.
