The debut effort from this heavy, political band. Led by Singer and Lyricist Serj Tankian, Guitarist Daron Malakian, Bassist Shavo Odadjian and Drummer John Dolmayan, this qaurtet can really shred riffs and make noise. If you are willing to learn and listen, get ready cause these guys will shake the evil out of you and the knowledge in.

Suite-Pee - Catchy opener. 3

Know - Catchy follow up to catchy opener, "Know, you never think you know, why". 3

Sugar - The first single of the cd, maybe the fastest, heaviest and craziest track. I'm not sure what lyric to quote so I'll go with the obvious choice: "Sugar!". 4

Suggestions - Starts off with an acoustic sound, which becomes electric, and then the song explodes. It's a short song but a good one indeed. "If you want the answers, you better give a piece of your ass". 5

Spiders - A very nice melodic metal song. I didn't used to like this song but I've come around. One of the best songs on the album. "Dreams are made winding through my head". 5

DDevil - This one is intersting, the beat and pace rarely let up, the song just steam rolls through. There is one lyric that says alot: "Stupid people do stupid things, smart people outsmart each other". 3

Soil - This is one reminds me of the first two, but better. "Don't you, realize, evil, lives in the motherf***ing skin". 4

War? - I haven't quite gotten into this one yet. 3

Mind - This the longest song on the album, and I'm having a bit of trouble getting into it. 3

Peephole - This is one heck of an odd song. Listen to it, I'm not sure how to describe it, the main lyric that is emphasized is "Don't ever get stuck in the sky, when you're high". 4

CUBErt - I'll admit I haven't listened to the last three songs enough yet. 3

DARTS - see previous. 3

P.L.U.C.K. - I'll say this much: "Politically lying, Unholy, Cowardly, Killers". see previous (2). 3
