      Not only that but it's IMO their best album. For me 'SOAD' followed by 'Steal This Album'. The rest are whatever, I like them but the two I listed are head and shoulders above. I will say though 'Deer Dance' is one of my favorites from them.

      Using words in a certain sequence can be phenomenal, given the structure is perfect, and the timing of mood with whom you're conversing with...

      I dont know if it's just me, but SOAD gives me this rasta preachy vibe mixed with heavy metal. It's a very unique genre. But nevertheless extremely addicting. Theres so many interesting nuances in their records, such a constant repeating of phrases, yelling phrases for emphasis, the switch from low to high tempo very rapidly, it may sound dumb but alot of these things are unique to soad and not really replicated

    • @ben1ben
      @ben1ben Před 2 lety +7

      ​@@andralfooVoices do age yes, but this is actually not the case with why Serj sounds different, some people have the same voice after years and although Serj's talking voice did change a little, his Singing should be the same as he has his moments where he sounds like nothing ever happened. Here an example czcams.com/video/xPW6jdKHPOw/video.html for 20 seconds straight he just sounds amazing. The reason he sounds different today are that he doesn't really feel it as much as back in the day where he was all into it, and most importantly his Normal Singing, he does a thing I don't know if its a technique but lets just call it technique it's called Nasal Singing. It is a big help for singing and for reaching high notes but it sounds horrible. Vocal teachers teach you how to get out of the nasal singing and teach how to reach the notes without relying on that technique. So all this leads up to Serj needing to get some Vocal training. But as I said I don't think he is into it as much as he was, so he doesn't really care :/ his new singing style fits for the last 2 albums of SOAD and especially works for his solo career, but for actual singing and everything else its very very bad. Even with nasal singing I hear him sounding pitchy a lot so that's another evidence for him needing to get some Vocal lessons.

If you think they have a generic sound, listen to A Little Piece of Heaven, Save Me, Dear God, Unbound, Lost, Sidewinder, etc. Slipknot has done some interesting tracks like Iowa, (515), Vermillion Pt.2, etc. I can't really speak for Disturbed since I don't listen to them. And I don't consider BB to be metal, even tho I love their stuff. And all those bands have meaningfull lyrics, even tho they aren't political

    Before you know, Awake,
    Your lives are open wide,
    The V-chip gives them sight,
    All the life running through her hair,
    The spiders all in tune,
    The evening of the moon,
    Dreams are made winding through my head,
    Through my head,
    Before you know, Awake
    Through my head,
    Before you know,
    Before you know I will be waiting all awake,
    Dreams are made winding through her hair,
    Dreams are made winding through her hair.

    When I first heard this song over here in New Zealand I was completely blown away. I just couldn't believe the total serenity of its opening vocals before the crashing of atomic/nuclear-like guitar and drumming joining in. I couldn't help but wonder to myself 'gee so much for the Maynard James Keenan vocal led group Tool'...SOAD was like Tool with a double shot of testosterone thrown in for good measure. I love both bands and I believe both are intelligent groups ahead of their time. I've heard a lot of great artists over my time (I'm 53) and both bands are up there with the best in rock music history.

Maynard is an excellent vocalist and the band work well together. Their Drummer Danny is one of the best drummers ever, in my opinion. They produce a roller coaster of emotions in their songs. SOAD are fucking unreal. They also like TOOL produce mind blowing sounds and lyrics. I really couldn't say either of these bands are better, they both just fucking rule.

    The other day I went to school, and as I didn't know the name of the song and the band, I only talked to some friends, but none of them knew about the band. So I was certain I'd never hear about it again. But then came the internet. And all the misteries of my childhood no longer exist.

      Joker I know most didn't have these in the early 90s, however I didn't doubt that he/she as an individual had or didn't have these things. If you actually would've thought about my comment before replying, I was saying that there was a such thing as the internet, computers, cellphones, and they were actually very popular, where as in his/her comment they said there were "no such thing back then".

    "Spiders"
    The piercing radiant moon,
    The storming of poor June,
    All the life running through her hair,
    Approaching guiding light,
    Our shallow years in fright,
    Dreams are made winding through my head,
    Through my head,
    Before you know,
    Awake,
    Your lives are open wide,
    The V-chip gives them sight,
    All the life running through her hair,
    The spiders all in tune,
    The evening of the moon,
    Dreams are made winding through my head,
    Through my head,
    Before you know,
    Awake
    Through my head,
    Before you know,
    Before you know I will be waiting all awake,
    Dreams are made winding through her hair,
    Dreams are made winding through her hair.
