Mezmerize

So, Mezmerize came out yesterday. And it's great. I'll try not to review every song, but I'm sorry if I do. The album begins with a somewhat accoustic performance of Soldier Side. Then it quickly jumps through B.Y.O.B., which stands for Bring Your Own Bombs. This keeps with the System theme of antiwar lyrics. Then they proceed into Cigaro, which is also an antiwar song. But it only appears as an antiwar song to those who actually know what the lyrics mean. Otherwise, the lyrics will leave you wondering why Serj was just singing about his cock. Next is Radio/Video, which is possibly the best song on the album. It has thrashing moments, well done accoustics, and well done harmonics. Then they play the song about cocaine which was clearly written while Darian was on cocaine. However, despite being a drug induced song, it is one of the better moshing and head banging songs on the album. Then Violent Pornography. Self explanitory. Then Question, which is another candidate for the best song on the album. And finally, Sad Statue, Old School Hollywood, and Lost In Hollywood. Both of the Hollywood songs sing about "old school hollywood baseball", which leaves me puzzled. In conclusion, everyone should go buy this cd. NOW.
