CD Reviews for 9/11

My pick - Indicates Josin's pick of that album.

System of a Down

System of a Down: 'System of a Down'

Ah... finally. I've gotten hold of System of a Down's debut album. After reading all the anti-establishment propaganda along the album's cover, I was immediately reminded of Rage Against the Machine. But I was wrong... these songs actually kick ass (unlike that other opposition band).

  • Suite-pee
  • Know
  • Sugar
  • Suggestions
    Spiders
  • DDEvil
  • Soil
  • War?
  • Mind
  • Peephole
  • CUBErt
  • Darts
  • P.L.U.C.K.

    • While the album kicks ass, I need to give it a 7, because the songs just aren't long enough. I'm left wanting more.

    Alice in Chains: Nothing Safe: The Best of the Box

    Alice in Chains: 'Nothing Safe: The Best of the Box'

    A special Alice in Chains one-off album created to hype up the later-released box set edition. The box review will be coming soon. My advice is if you're not a big fan of AIC, you'll do just fine with this album. You won't have any reason to spend $50 on more of the same.

  • Get Born Again Previously unreleased
  • We Die Young (demo) Previously unreleased demo
  • Man in the Box
  • Them Bones
  • Iron Gland Unlisted track from Dirt
    Angry Chair
  • Down in a Hole
  • Rooster (live) Previously unreleased in North America
  • Got Me Wrong (MTV Unplugged version)
  • No Excuses
  • I Stay Away
  • What the Hell Have I
  • Grind
  • Again
  • Would?

    • Because I'm a big AIC fan, this album gets a 9.

    Blur

    Blur: 'Blur'

    "Song 2" swept the nation as the new headbanger's anthem. Actually, I'm making that up, but it did get pretty popular. It's the only reason I bought the album, and as for why I'm reviewing it, I don't even know why.

  • Beetlebum
    Song 2
  • Country Sad Ballad Man
  • M.O.R.
  • On Your Own
  • Theme From Retro
  • You're So Great
  • Death of a Party
  • Chinese Bombs
  • I'm Just a Killer for Your Love
  • Look Inside America
  • Strange News From Another Star
  • Movin' On
  • Essex Dogs

    • I was disappointed when most of the album turned out to be their now-trademarked easy-listening alternative stuff. "Song 2" and "Chinese Bombs" were the only real "rock" songs on there. Grade: 4.
