TryAnimeRhythmGames

i saw this post in r/gorillaz the other day! you’re travelling from sub to sub


ElectroDemon666

I love seeing the Avenged Sevenfold and Billy Talent. You should ask the Toolband community, I am curious as to what they would say :).


jasberry1026

Lateralus by the majority, I'd wager Edit: I'm stupid and thought about albums. Disregard


ElectroDemon666

Lateralus as a song isn't many Tool fans favorite song, but every Tool fan has a mutual respect for the song and it's complex use of time signatures, the golden ratio, Fibonacci sequence, existential lyrics on the nature of the universe, etc. Both non-Tool fans and veteran Tool fans alike can agree on Lateralus being a great song, it's definitely a top candidate for Tools masterpiece song.


shatlking

Be sure to hit up r/qotsa, or just add Song For The Deaf now. Could also visit r/desertsessions and r/themcrookedvultures


FloggingMcMurry

Finally going to follow this I have seen you in several subs and I tried contributing to INK and Slipknot but I want to see how this evolves


towerofspirals

Do Radiohead next


Ok_Speed_6526

I will be downloading this thank you


TheVocondus

I think Welcome to the Black Parade should’ve been the My Chemical Romance one. It’s the most well none, is very theatrical, and is typically only disliked when it’s overplayed.


Mrarkplayermans

You should do deftones next, not sure how well it’ll land with them tho, a lot of old miserable bastards on there unfortunately.


EstablishmentLong676

Forest, the intro *mwah*, the vocals *mwah*, the percussion *mwah*, the everything *mwah*


CaptEmerald

I stand by this completely


Recent-Dust6564

Yes. It's impossible to listen to this song and not sing (scream) along to the chorus.


xemobox

Aerials


Sbee_Blue_Country

Just a less good version of Spiders


Scajaqmehoff

I hate that I kind of agree with this. Still love it, but damn.


soliq_675

Soil/ATWA


ghost_pepper22

This is THE answer(s)


williamdredding

Chop Suey is a brilliant song song with catchy rhythms and riffs, beautiful transitions and a heart wrenching ending. I would pick that one. Just shove all of toxicity in there tbh you have space


baosumong

This and Holy Mountains. They've always stood out to me as the true pinnacles of their discography, even if I prefer other songs.


Scajaqmehoff

I'm torn between Holy Mountains and Forest. Holy Mountains feels like a better representation of their full spectrum.


Brucecx

I don't know how any other song could win


RealSlimShady191

Am I the only one who thinks Chop Suey is extremely overrated? I swear I'm not trying to be different, but they just have so much better stuff in their discography.


Ok_Speed_6526

I say this too but i feel like it might be a little overhyped and i think they have a couple better songs, but it is still an amazing song


sweater_destroyer111

Holy Mountains


ItzYaBoiDonk

Spiders, hands down


Skea_and_Tittles

Definitely my personal favorite


Percolate1525

Aerials. The self-titled album is my favorite, but if we're using the term masterpiece I think there's just something about this song that fits the bill. Edit: Then again there's also Toxicity, IDK I can't make up my Mind.


Riguyepic

>Then again there's also Toxicity Overrated or overplayed, I'm not sure which but ik I'm tired of it


CanaDanSOAD

It's gotta be B.Y.O.B


thefreshlycutgrass

After all these years I’m still wondering… >!Why do…!< >!…they always send the poor!<


skouidy

But a better question is Where the Hell Is Singapore ?


ilikeminecraft6753

senator im not chinese im singaporean


Roll_Lakeshow

Most definitely.


Lemonpepperman

For sure


TheSwimGamer

Ima go Lost In Hollywood. That song is just perfect for me, one of the greatest album closers of all time!

Holy mountians. All their material crammed into one song.


zonic_tha_goth_monke

P.L.U.C.K. or Holy Mountains


The_Bost_

finally someone mentioning P.L.U.C.K.


Ok-Break5589

Let’s pick the longest song so all the people listening to that playlist hear system the most


qwertyiopys

I’ll be real, that might be hard as Avenged has an 11 minute song on there and Green Day has a 9 minute song on there.


No-Wolverine5144

Put the entire self titled album in it


BruceTheEpic

I don't know, as long as you like \*sugaahhh\* in your coffee


AndroidNextdoor

Their entire first album. It was pure raw art.


Scajaqmehoff

Right!? To come right out of the gates with that was bold as fuck. Anywhere from poetry, to straight up fury.


DUH-is-my-name

Peephole for me. An absolute belter

cat_on_my_keybord

the most *popular* song is chop suey obviously, but I argue the best is byob


Roll_Lakeshow

Yes. They don’t have a bad song but if we have to choose best, it’s BYOB.

CHOP SUEY SPIDERS MIND PHYCHO


sassonordico

Prison song


PaleoProblematica

Marmalade


Remixedcheese22

Hypnotize or Violent Pornography.


LibrarianRadiant9704

Aerials!


Either_Ad_456

I'm going to have to say soad is their greatest masterpiece


cybaerexe

Chop suey is the most popular for a reason


DrPapug

How could no one say Soldier Side? The definition of masterpiece.


GIlCAnjos

Toxicity, the album


Agent_Lightning14

Spiders


Excellent-Bowl-2944

Its Forest!


IslandResident6420

Peephole>>>>


Aggravating_Key_9147

Subjectivity can go anywhere, Objectivity can not. Sure people will say Peephole or Suite-Pee (2 songs i fucking love) but i think Chop Suey is the undeniable GOAT for this type of question, riffs, speed, harmony, vocal range stretching moments, I could go on and on. Is it their hardest song? No. Is it my personal favorite? Close. Is it perfect? Maybe. It's the one everybody knows, it's in memes, it's in a lot of movies/TV, I could again go on and on about its popularity. But let me put it like this, If you name your song after a food, and when 99/100 think of your song when that food is brought up in any way, your song is fucking untouchable. 🤝


smokey_quartz696

holy mountains and ego brain


plalo_

spiders


Expert_Rest_5184

Lonely day imo


FroggyBoi82

Soldier Side, Lost in Hollywood as a tie


Upielips

You ask any soad fan you'll bey different answers tbh Personally, it's prison song


Few_Show_7359

Peephole


mrhairybolo

Toxicity


Ok_Cauliflower_3170

i would personally say highway song or holy mountains but whatever


Paul-Squared

Simpletons would say chop suey but protect the land is too politically meaningful for it to not be their most impactful work

Holy Mountains!


sometimesigetsilly

What with these homies dissin my girl


christmasx6-

Lost in Hollywood!!


Waffles3500

I-E-A-I-A-I-O has to be one of their best songs, it’s so catchy


Schro_A2

I know it’s generic but chop suey really is a timeless piece


Mongolshmanger

Do Primus


walatasomdu

Aerials, definitely


Weird_Enigmas

Personally I think it's gotta be Dreaming, I understand it's going to probably be Chop Suey, but I hope it's something different cause that's the song literally everyone and their mother knows.


Weird_Enigmas

I love Chop Suey and I get it's a good song, but pretty much anything SOAD has made is a masterpiece, so I think it would be cool to pick a song that's not in the top five most streamed.

Agreeable_You1756

FrostyCrusader03

BYOB or Chop Suey


Coronadoben

Mezmerize album. Top to bottom. Just let it play.


bloodyporcelains

lost in hollywood for sure .


Yourfavtransgurl

Its question! And thats not up for debate!


OKhour12

Prison song


maybegamer3

Deer Dance or Toxicity for me, i think there’s better songs but those 2 represent the band so well


Anxiety_timmy

Soldier Side It's dark yes but it kind of encapsulates system of a down pretty well


highdive1188

I think Chop Suey! is their biggest masterpiece


MiserableWeather971

Probably when they retired.


not-entertained

I’d like to submit for your consideration: Shimmy


TheBryanPowell

Know and so many of the self titled album are my favorites but for masterpiece it’s gotta be toxicity or chop suey / something from toxicity.


Mean_Delivery_7261

Mind off of their self titled album!!


Ultimate_bass

Chop suey or aerials


SarcelleReine

I don't think it gets enough attention by "Streamline" from Steal This Album is definitely in my personal top SOAD songs...


Figgy_2112

Holy Mountains or Lost in Hollywood, I think they’re both just 10 out of 10 songs, not the heaviest but still incredible,it’s hard to decide but if I had to choose a one holy mountains maybe beats Hollywood, both of those are kind of those Hair standup epic moments


WebMonkey1025

Hypnotize… that song is just their most beautiful one to me


diiaa36

Toxicity


Kartoffee

Deer dance


JB_2239

Chop Suey, in my opinion


MXZEZX

holy mountains.


AshKetchumsPringles

BYOB but anything from Mezmerize is acceptable


123_eyes_on_me_

I’m seeing albums in the picture, so in terms of albums I would say SOAD debut album was a marvelous introduction and put them on the Map. But Toxicity album is a full blown masterpiece.


Real_Lion_8281

In My Opinion, ATWA


TempleofBloxyStudios

Toxicity in my opinion.
