System of a Down or Scars on Broadway?

[DenizenofEvil]

System of a Down merabers Daron Malakian and John Dolmayan just released a new album under the name Scars on Broadway.

Is SoB as good, better, or worse than SOAD? Why?

 

[DidoDeeDee]

It was alright.
Not as good as Serj or System of a DOwn, in my honest opinion.

 

[LydiaJ]

I think there's a rule against starting Vs threaRAB. Or stupid threaRAB.

Graveyardtime!

 

[z-OH-ee <8]

no, it diddnt come CLOSE to the system.

but personally i think serj tankians album SUCCCKKKKED. it had 2 good songs.

 

[Rachel.]

I thought it had like...Two or three bad ones.
TO each their own, however.

 

[supercoolawesomechick]

his voice got wayyy to annoying, whiney and nasaly as the album goes on

 

[Zack M]

But as this Scars on Broadway don't have a thread as far as I am aware and are from what I can make out a side project of the other band it's staying open.

Common sense , as opposed to rules.

 

[Animal Crossing Dude]

agreed. agreed. they are legendary in my opinion

 

[Texas fountain.]

I can make it about halfway through the album. Better than I figured it would be.

I don't think Draon Malakian is brilliant. On recordings his guitar sounRAB okay but all the times I've seen him live he's been terrible and I've been sorely disappointed.

...my eyebrows just disappeared into my hairline.

Together, they're awesome. Serj having that mighty, theatrical voice and Daron bringing the craziness!

System of a Down works because of the extreme opposites of slow a fast, and those two very different voices.

I'd say, SOAD is a 9/10 band for me
Serj alone, 7/10
Scars on Broadway 3/10
(I was intensely searching for at least ONE really good song on their cd, haven't found it yet)

As much as I love Daron, I can tell how mediocre of a guitarist he is. What made System special were the arrangements, the craziness. He's not a bad songwriter, but I'd much rather hear a new SOAD album than a million solo albums from Daron and Serj.

 

[xt3rmin8_1987]

i say soad is 10/10

SOB is like 7/10

and serj is like 4/10

 

[Ron Brown]

i think serj tankian's solo album is miles better than both.

 

[farah_ruff88]

^ Werd. Incidentally, Scars on Broadway.

 

[RzorWolfe]

0s across the board.

 

[-kaulitz]

You'd be full of silly ideas then.

System accomplished far more together than either could do by themselves. Daron's album, which I really like, still doesn't compare favorably to his last works with System.

 

[loving_girl9009]

i think hes brilliant. daron malakian is my hero :]

 

[nisar j]

It's hard to compare the two. Serj and Daron are both insane, but they didn't show it on their works without eachother. Serj's solo has some great tracks, but a lot of dissapointing one's as well.Same with Scars. I think I liked Scars better than Elect the Dead, but SOAD beats both by a mile.
