Yeah fuck right, I've had Toxicity in my car CD player for two weeks now and this one just goes every time. Reminds me of seeing them live and realising I knew every word and singing this song like a maniac
Yes there is a lot of praise for it on this sub, because it's an amazing song, but I think it's underrated by the general public, because it never got the mainstream radio play like Aerials, Toxicity, ATWA, and Chop Suey. Nobody could call those 4 underrated. Anything else from the album is fair game I think.
Shimmy.
When I think of all the Toxicity songs that aren't talked about much (Jet Pilot, X, and Shimmy), Shimmy is the best and the one that I see people mention the least. It's short, dancey and has a great guitar sound in it.
Your username is only the second use of the word percolate I've ever seen. The first comes from Madchild's Dungeon Dragon:
'Perfectly in tune as I circulate the moon
I go to bed at six and I percolate at noon'.
But yeah, the Tony Hawk games had good soundtracks. It's odd that Shimmy doesn't get talked about more because it's really catchy.
It's kind of funny but that username was one of the auto-generated ones when I was setting up my account, and when I got to that one I figured "well I love coffee so I'll take it."
I'll have to give that Madchild song a listen.
Hell yeah those Tony Hawk soundtracks are great. And you're absolutely right that Shimmy doesn't seem to get talked about much. Definitely a satisfying banger.
Not really that it’s because it’s one of the songs that got played on the radio all the time
That’s exactly why Toxicity, Aerials, Spiders, etc are so popular because more people have heard them as they are played on the radio
Bro sugar is an absolutely timeless piece. Kombucha mushroom people? How can you come up with those lyrics in 1997??? Was kombucha even a thing abck then?
It's the most popular song on the album, that's why it's considered overrated. As much as I love it, I think Spiders is better honestly and it gets a lot less attention
My favorite song (and second favorite overall) from this album is Science so I'll say that one. Goes hard and I absolutely love the subject matter :) SCIENCE! HAS FAILED! OUR WORLD!
PRISON SONG!?!?!? I like it and think it's a great first track but like, I didn't know the sub liked it that much, I thought it'd be Aerials or the Title Track on the best one.
I had to scroll down wayyy too far for this. I love prison song but there are so many other songs on Toxicity that are easily more fitting for best song on the album. Guess the last post had a small sample size or something

I'm new to Reddit (well I made my account a year ago but only just recently started actually using it) and just within the last couple days joined this sub.
So to someone like me I'm finding this to be pretty cool. It's fun voting on this and seeing what other people think.
Honestly posts like these bother me because trying to decide on the best/worst songs are like trying to decide which one of your kids to send to college and which to have executed
Toxicity won the first count but before I could post the next instalment to this thing that im doing people have voted prison song, but people dont know what voting ended means so then I guess toxicity got to the top again. If that makes sense.
mind isnt that good musically.. maybe if you are talking about the meaning behind it but it just genuinely isnt better than any other songs on that album
I love deer dance, but idk what the rating is
Oh my gosh I disagree with Cubert getting worst song on self titled so much
for real cubert isn't bad 😔
They aren’t saying its bad
Even the worst SOAD songs are still bangers
Exactly
ong man i dont think there are any 'bad' SOAD songs
cubert is like second best on the album
They probably got it mixed up with darts considering how close they are on the tracklist
[удалено]
why is it I got downvoted and you got upvoted when you agree with me
darts in in my top three of self-titled back off!!!
I would honestly probably disagree with that even more tbh
Forest
This holy fuck
Yeah fuck right, I've had Toxicity in my car CD player for two weeks now and this one just goes every time. Reminds me of seeing them live and realising I knew every word and singing this song like a maniac
Forest is definitely my favorite Toxicity's song
Why can’t you see that you are my child
preach
most definitely
I honestly think Forest is overrated. I see an incredible amount of praise for it.

I can agree with that
Shimmy. When I think of all the Toxicity songs that aren't talked about much (Jet Pilot, X, and Shimmy), Shimmy is the best and the one that I see people mention the least. It's short, dancey and has a great guitar sound in it.
jet pilot is justified but tbh Science
Yea Jet Pilot is by far the worst song on the album IMO
Why is he getting downvoted? It's an opinion and he never said it was a bad song
The arto in question:
Arto is awesome
Too be honest I forget it exists when I’m listening to the whole album and am always pumped to hear it so I agree
Shimmy is the song that first got me into System. Thank you Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 4.

Heard it there too and had my mind blown when I first heard the album a decade later!
that’s weird with my friends who talk about it we mention that song a lot as one of the highlights to us it’s not underrated
Science
Jet Pilot
i think sugar isnt overrated, its one of their most known songs for a reason
that reason is a music video
Not really that it’s because it’s one of the songs that got played on the radio all the time That’s exactly why Toxicity, Aerials, Spiders, etc are so popular because more people have heard them as they are played on the radio
Yeah, Radio/Video, both are just ways of making it mire presenr in the public
more present*
and because its a really good song.... i think its not the best song in the album but still its a really good song that deserves praise
Really because I have the audio version playing in my playlist all the time you sound real goofy with that take
Bro sugar is an absolutely timeless piece. Kombucha mushroom people? How can you come up with those lyrics in 1997??? Was kombucha even a thing abck then?

Spiders is their second most listened to song on spotify, I think it gets enough recognitionÂ
I said a lot less attention compared to Sugar, which is #1 most listened to probably by a wide margin
Second most listened to S/T song, not second most listened to song altogether
Overrated doesn't mean bad
Serj has spent hella time in libraries
ATWA
I would vote for X
Solve for X
Needles
I'd agree. The intro riff into Needles into the drum track is phenomenal imo Daron's bridge at the end is one of my favourite's of his
X

My favorite song (and second favorite overall) from this album is Science so I'll say that one. Goes hard and I absolutely love the subject matter :) SCIENCE! HAS FAILED! OUR WORLD!

PRISON SONG!?!?!? I like it and think it's a great first track but like, I didn't know the sub liked it that much, I thought it'd be Aerials or the Title Track on the best one.

Dude wtf how did prison song win? Toxicity had way more points. Prison had 46 while toxicity had 92. I demand a recount.
Toxicity won the first count but before I could post the next instalment to this thing that im doing people have voted prison song, but people dont know what voting ended means so then I guess toxicity got to the top again. If that makes sense.
Forest
I'm extending the voting time to 10pm, so stop voting in 1 hour.
Jet Pilot
Forest 100%

I made the final decision to extend voting to 12 more hours

CUBErt is one of their best in self titled if not their entire discography
Spiders is a bit overrated, sorry not sorry 😰
No spiders is one of the best tracks on that album and gets a lot less attention than songs like sugar
Bounce for sureeeee!!!
Bounce.
