Members telephant Posted June 16, 2008 Members Share Posted June 16, 2008 Coming from someone who is biased to like them I actually dont like them, I just know how to use my ears. Dont ask me why I know all this {censored}. edit: Although I appreciate the fact they have a unique sound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members lukeswall Posted June 16, 2008 Members Share Posted June 16, 2008 love them. the tone on that whole album is great, especially Aerials. When he hits those big chords in the middle of the song I almost have a heart attack.I think I read somewhere he used 5 or 6 different amps on toxicity. From Mesa to Matchless. The tone on Mezmerize/Hypnotize is great as well. More of a Marshall vibe to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members thesinner66 Posted June 16, 2008 Author Members Share Posted June 16, 2008 Coming from someone who is biased to like them Noooooo not entirely true. Like I said, I'm not a huge fan. I don't like everything they do and have nothing to do w/ sucking their dicks. Wait.... Except for now.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members telephant Posted June 16, 2008 Members Share Posted June 16, 2008 I'm willing to argue about #1. Go through all the bands he's worked w/ and they all have incredibly good guitar tone. My only dislike has been Slayers "Seasons.." And I agree w/ #2. I hate Slayers tone. The guitar tones on Beastie Boys first album sucked balls. Mars Volta tone on the first album wasnt anything special. BSSM had some amazing tones mixed with some not so good tones... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Reauchambeau Posted June 16, 2008 Members Share Posted June 16, 2008 "everybody's going to the party have a real good ti i i ime,la la la la la la la la la la la" {censored} I hate that song.I think they're competent players but I actually get annoyed listening to them.I can't remember where, but I saw a clip of the singer doing a Dead kennedys cover of Holiday in Cambodia with the foo fighters,that was good.

Members Chrisjd Posted June 17, 2008 Members Share Posted June 17, 2008 I've gone back and listened to some System of a Down. Was never like...a huge fan. But I'd just end up w/ their CD's some how.They got some mean tone though! It's not just a mesa at full blast, it sounds like there's some Marshall grind as well.Which leads me to our next topic....Rick Rubin can get some great guitar tones when he's at the helm of "prouducer." I'll take Rick Rubin over andy sneap more often than not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members TheEsupremacy Posted June 17, 2008 Members Share Posted June 17, 2008 They suck dick, singer makes me want to shoot myself, drummer is eh, and the tones are horrible. You should see an audiologist. I can't stand Serj's voice. Darren uses a Boss Metal Zone for a lot of his tone. Swear to God, look it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members duncan Posted June 17, 2008 Members Share Posted June 17, 2008 Yep. That's how bad SOAD is. still gonna have to disagree with you. i can tolerate SOAD. i actually like some of their songs. nickelback tho? fuuuuuuuuuuuck that band. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members OverDriven Posted June 17, 2008 Members Share Posted June 17, 2008 Old SoaD is pretty cool. The newer stuff...I have no idea how anyone can listen to that dude's "singing" it has progressed to boring, whiny, uncreative droning that just follows the guitars. Absolutely horrible. I would honestly rather listen to Nickelback. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Unstrung Posted June 17, 2008 Members Share Posted June 17, 2008 #2. The tone on Mezmerize/Hypnotize is spectacular. Anyone who tells you different has a hard time being objective because they dislike this band. It is however, phenomenal sounding. Agreed... that tone is {censored}ing great!
