SOAD
Storm Rider:
I actually didn't know they wrote a song about that (mostly because I don't ever have a clue what their singer is saying). I was being sarcastic. But the fact that they do indeed have a song on that subject really just proves my point. Barely-veiled metaphors don't make their music any more 'intelligent'.
You could more or less just write 'THIS IS A METAPHOR' on a sledgehammer with a Sharpie marker and beat yourself over the head with it for 10 minutes and get approximately the same effect as listening to a System of a Down album, and kill more or less the same amount of brain cells.
Kossie:
I didn't even think they talked about their dicks as metaphors, after seeing them at the annual Australia 'rock' (I use the term loosely now-a-days) festival, The Big Day Out, SOAD mentioned their dicks outright in a fair few songs just for the sake of it it'd seem. I think if I was about 13 I'd find that sort of thing funny, and with the unintelligence of their lyrics based on pop- anarchy, it seems they've found a new target demographic...
Didn't they say in one of their new songs "Why don't presidents fight wars?" WHOA! HOW PROFOUND SYSTEM OF A DOWN, HOW PROFOUND!
TheLoweringTide:
I liked them back when I listened to crap metal. I don't do that anymore though.
a pack of wolves:
Hella opened for SOAD? Weird, I always thought they were a DIY band. And I'd kill puppies to see them live, the videos I've seen of them are incredible. Can't really see nu-metal fans liking them though, bit of a weird bill for them to be on.

I still do. SOAD and Disturbed, mostly.
Eh, you can say anything about my terrible tastes, but at least I'm loyal.
Except to Taking Back Sunday. I have no idea why I *ever* listened to them.
