just because Slipknot do songs that arn't 3 minutes of screaming dosn't mean they've gone soft or are just "stone sour under a different name." Pantera made "suicide notes part one" and no one said "that albums shit, they've gone soft." Vol 3 is Slipknot maturing as artists. hating a band because they're expanding their horizons is pretty weak.and while System are very very good, they arn't really forging new paths in the music world
Matured just means they no longer have the energy to do the heavy stuff.System of a down is doing timing signatures mudvayne or sliptknot had never thought of.They are pushing the envelope so much with their new album.

hardly, i saw them live after they released Vol 3 and they were just as hard as ever. not to mention that there are songs that are just as hard on Vol. 3 as there are on the selftitled album or Iowa.

i dont think System are pushing any boundarys with their timing on their new cd. they arn't doing anything all that special by droping into screaming and a breakdown at the end of a chorus one whole word early. want some good timing signatures, look at Dreamtheatre or some of the other prog bands out their. and while the new System cd is really quite good, i dont think its really breaking to many boundaries

Oh my God you are nuts.Evidently you haven't listend to violent pornagraphy and tell me it's not crazy.I belive one song is in 4/5 timing.
nuts. hardly. and as Alpha has taught me on many occasions, assumption is the mother of all f*ck ups. i have listened to Violent Pornography many times and while there is some really good timing in there, one song hardly is enough to make the cd the totally ground breaking extravaganza your making it out to be. i'm not here challenging systems ability, i saw them play the same day as slipknot, they are amazing live, but i dont think they pushed the envelope too far on this cd.

Dream theatre?to cliched to even bother with.
dream theatre is hardly cliched, they make some of the best music i've heard in a long time. sure, their latest outing wasn't groundbreaking but i'm not making that claim

Revenga?
This cocain makes me feel like i'm on this song?
More than one crazy song on that cd.
Dream theatre is overly cliched.The big guitars and such is way over with.They are awesome musicians,but too outdated for me.
