/mu/ - Music (Temp full images)

I will love this album forever. SOAD is one of the few bands of this genre that I listened to in like middle school that I still enjoy.

>>47536590
love this album so much. this and steal this album will forever be my favorite edgy teen albums i grew up to.

>>47536309
I love the first album for it's short maniacal, weird songs, the second bas actually better, but whille gaining musically it has lost some of its raw power. I still like it though.
All the others are meh.

>>47536309
Unpopular opinion, but I actually really like both Mezmerize/Hypnotize. Probably because of sentimentality mostly, since I still have the [Edited] version of the former that my dad got me since he was cautious about "Parental Advisory" stickers when I was younger.

But goddamn if "Lost In Hollywood" wasn't my shit for a long while.

This is my feels band, cause I did all my high school bmx/skating listening to them
I nostalgia'd hard

>>47536309
What's with huge increase of SOAD threads recently?

>inb4 summer

They're good. First album is their best.

>>47537288
I'm not that fond of Hypnotize, but Mezmerize is really good.

>>47537500
neo/mu/ is real

people shun discussion of bands like death grips, NMH, AnCo, yet threads about objectively bad bands like SOAD, Nickleback, etc are plenty

>>47537615
I've been on /mu/ since 2008 and I've seen appreciation of SoaD since I first came here

I like all of their albums. Mezmerize and Hypnotize are great.

>>47536590
This so much.

>>47537615
I think you're the new user here.
Threads about these bands always existed.

>>47537776
not as much as in the post year or so

there used to be AnCo threads hourly, rec threads, share threads everywhere, plenty of actual music discussion, rather than

"DAE soad lel"

"middle school core amirite"

"who else death grapes suck?"

nostalgia band. one of the few bands i got into when i was like 12 that i still like. Aerials is such a fucking good song

>everything I don't like is neo-/mu/

>>47537970
it's not that I don't like it, I did once like SOAD in elementary school, it's that discussion of objectively bad bands are everywhere now

I've always thought their self-titled was their best. It was System in their most raw, weird essence. And the speed just doesn't let up. Except on Spiders and the intro on Mind.
After that it goes
Toxicity > Steal > Mezmerize > Hypnotize, for me. I like all their albums though. There's really only two System songs I dislike; Lonely Day and Lost in Hollywood.

>denying that music can be objective

A film can be objectively bad, say there's no character development, no clear story progression

A Video Game can be objectively bad, say there's bad level design, unfinished gameplay

A book can be objectively bad, just look at Finnegan's Wake, Oliver Twist

Music can be objectively bad like other media. Say there's no chord progression, nothing to catch your ear. There's a difference between Sunn O))) and a refrigerator.

Objectively good music being Sunn, SOAD being the refrigerator.

>heard better bands
no shit, who hasn't

Mesmerize is my favourite. Absolutely every song on it was not skippable for me and awesome to listen to. I usually skip through certain songs in albums.

>>47538701
soad fans

Mezmerize and Hypnotize are 10/10. Toxicity is 9/10, steal this album and soad is 6/10.
Best songs are soldier side, question!, dreaming and maybe aerials.
