Mtv have a free streaming as you might of seen when accesing The Rising Tied http://www.mtv.com/music/#/music/the_leak/system_of_a_down/hypnotize/index.jhtml its a really great cd
I'm the opposite. I was dissapointed when I heard Hypnotize, but I have to say, hearing the rest of the songs on the album I might just have to buy this.
When I first heard Mezmerize I thought "What is this trash?". I gave it a few more listens and now I love it. I'm hoping the same thing will happen with Hypnotize. The song, I like. Vicinity Of Obscenity... I can't get that out of my head It's by far the best song on the album and also better than any songs on Mezmerize; just.
I love both albums. Although at the moment, Hypnotize > Mesmerize only because I've been listening to H a lot more.
Since from what I've read, Hypnotize and Mezmerize are a set. So my question is, which one comes first in the set? Like, I understand they're not really concept albums, persay. But which one is meant to be listened to first? I assumed Hypnotize, because the last song is Soldier Side, which (at least on my version) is the first song (Soldier Side/Intro) for Mezmerize. If I'm just talking crazy, please tell me, because I know nothing about System of a Down.
Mezmerize is supposed to be listened first. The Soldier Side on Hypnotize is supposed to serve as a way of ending the two-album set.
Oh, okay, sounds good. I just listened for the first time to Mezmerize, and it wasn't too bad, surprisingly. Now I'm listening to Hypnotize, and so far, pretty good.
...am I the only one that noticed that in both CD's they've started off the album strong, then ended it off slow?
Hypnotize it's the best SOAD album for me ... it has the power of self-titled and toxicity , and the melodies of Steal This Album and Mezmerize ... Soldier Side it's an AWESOME song ..makes me cry ... Dreaming , Lonely Day and Vicinity Of Obscenity are all good songs too .... the full album it's awesome .. i'm hypnotized ...
