I appreciate most of the songs -- I can't really get into Chemicals or Cute Machines though. Also, I have this feeling that throughout the whole album Daron is using extremely similar descending chord progressions... Hopefully I will notice more differences as I give it more listens.

I oddly actually notice a lot of similarities between the 30 sec samples and other songs, not just from the Beatles. I can't figure out what songs I'm hearing in Daron songs, but I DEFINITELY feel like I'm familiar with some of the tunes... but I still like them.... they're like stolen tunes but 100,000,000 times better! Enhanced...

it's like the Eastern version of Beatles.

I'm not sure how many of you guys listen to Eastern music (Iranian, Armenian, Turkish) but trust me, the biggest influence on his music is Eastern Folk music which is great for me (I'm Iranian).
It's the reason why some of his chord progressions and melodies might sound unusual.

Seriously great album. Like SOAD gone pop. I loved how they used Drugs in the middle of Enemy.

Okay, let's do it.
Serious: I was very excited about that song in first seconds of listening. Very great song, for me it reminds all that stuff what Daron said several years ago at Uranium - "don't take it too seriously" or something like that. One of the greatest songs in the album I think. 9.5/10

Funny: Very interesting song, and for me reminds 'Radio/Video' at times. I heard better songs than this one in the album, but this is pretty great song too. 8/10

Exploding/Reloading: Powerful, holy crap! I'm headbanging while listening. Good song. And I like the end, when Daron screams. It sounds like... I don't know, like he's screaming like a machine, the same sound. ;D I odn't know how to call it. But that's WOW. 10/10

Stoner Hate: I like this song, fast riffs in it. And of course, that pretty long word! Now I can sing it as fast as Daron does. ;D Nice song. 9/10

Insane: Different than others. That's like... rest after another 4 songs. This song makes me thoughtful. not the best, but good. 8.5/10

World Long Gone: I like the vocals very much. I don't know how it's for others - but for me it's very deep song, I love that. One of the greatest songs too. 9.5/10

Kill Each Other/Live Forever: Awesome. And deep. I can listen it all the time, and it always sounds differently to me. Love the melody. BOMB. 10/10

Babylon: When I listened to this at first time, I was like "Oh-My-Fucking-God, that's freakin' interesting." And yeah it is. In this song I noticed that Daron's voice has changed a bit, what I like so much. It sounds very professional I think. Amazing song. 10/10

Chemicals: Good song, but now it looks a little annoying, because I listened to that song before a lot, and... You know like it is, when I'm listening this with full album, it doesn't look that fresh like others. But that's fine when I'm listening that without other songs in the album. Nice song, I like all that "roawr" ;DD. 8.5/10

Enemy: It would be very pretty, but... Drugs. That's the reasoon why I'm not excited about that song a lot. Drugs sounds nice in this but... System played it. And for me it's... System, you know? The same I felt when I listened Serj's version of 'Blue'. But other parts are great. I wanna dance. ;D 9/10

Universe: Very nice. I love the lyrics, and guitars in this song. I'm impressed. 9.5/10

3005: The Greatest Song in the album to me. Beautiful. The best lyrics in the album, and melody. Daron's voice is very fresh in it, like I said once, professional. And the last part with mikey mouse, sweet. 10/10

Cute Machines: Poor lyrics, but GOD, it ROCKS. I like it because it's fast, and because of guitars. 9.5/10

Whoring Streets: Pretty song. And solo is better than in a live record I think. Good vocals, just word "whoring" Daron says very strange, but that's fine. I'm just IN this song, when I'm listening. 10/10

They Say: Very good song, but it's the same like I said for 'Chemicals', I heard it before too much. I love the lyrics, Daron's voice. 9/10


I love all the songs. Very great album.

Needless to say - if far surpassed my expectations. I love almost every song.

3005, Babylon, and Insane to be my tops right now. Along with Stoner Hate and Funny.

I like them all - Still getting the album the 29th.
