Edit 03/24/2024 96 -> 100: Yeah I don't know what I was on but X and ATWA are freaking amazing and Arlo is fine for a closer.
Damn near perfect album and arguably System of a Down's best work. This thing throws you against a wall and bombards you with emotion. Some of the lines on this project may be a little cheesy but the conviction behind how they are presented sells itself. While there were a few tracks I didn't enjoy as much as the others I could see them being other's favorites with the quality on this thing being at an absolute peak. Favorite tracks for me would be Deer Dabce, Chop Suey, and Forest with my least favorite tracks being X, ATWA, and Arto. Likely the best experience nu metal has to offer if you consider SOAD nu metal.
