why the fuck can’t SOAD just re-unite instead?
This will kick major ass!
just watched the trailer vid……wasn’t too impressed tbh. I haven’t enjoyed S.O.A.D’s music since Steal This Album, which for a collection of b-sides was actually better than the following two albums. I don’t think they should re-unite, I think if they did they’d just come up with the same crap they did on Mesmerize and Hypnotize, which just disappointed and annoyed me.
awesome!
with SOAD, the only good albums were the first two. With the first one being their masterpiece. The energy from that album is unbeatable.
Been waiting for this since August this year, in teh hope for a December release. Still, better late than never, especially as I love symphonic collaborations and Serj’s solo work is amazing.
system for download 2010. i’m still hoping
actually come to think of it alice in chains would be a worthy headliner, if not a main one.
I expected it to be kind of like Metallica’s S&M rather then straight up classical music. Still cool though like Apocalyptica.
I’m still not sure if SOAD disbanded or just “taking a break”. Everybody keeps telling me different! I would love it if they would get together for at least one tour. Aside from that…That’s pretty cool that he’s doing some classical album. If it sounds good, I’ll definitely be impressed with his musicianship.
I ACTUALLY HATE BARRY
