Serj Tankian's elect the dead

woodys track by track review.

Empty Walls - Nice opening track, sets the tone for the rest of the album. has its slow and fast paced moments which makes for a pretty cool track. 4/5

The Unthinking Majority - good catchy track. not really much else to say about it other than it gets a bit repetitive. 3.5/5

Money - once again nice usage of slow and faced paced moments as well as going from singing vocals to almost screaming ones. 4/5

Feed Us - good chorus on this track, not as much yelling/screaming as other tracks. 4/5

Saving Us - bit of a repetitive track but still pretty good. 3.5/5

Sky Is Over - one of the calmer songs on the album, which is a good thing as it mixes it up a bit. 4/5

Baby - First minute of the song starts really slow and then gets fast paced. another decent track. 3.5/5

Honking Antelope - Nice guitar riff on this track. one of my favourites from the album. 4/5

Lie Lie Lie - best track on the album in my opinion, catchy but not to repetitive. 4.5/5

Praise The Lord And Pass The Ammunition - My least favorite track on the album, with that said its still an ok song. 3/5

Beethoven's Cunt - Another good track with really good use of the fast and slow pacing of the song. 4/5

Elect The Dead - the calmest track on the album, nice way to finish off the CD with a slow paced calm song. 3.5/5

over all i would give the album 4/5. best tracks are empty walls, lie lie lie and Beethoven's cunt.
 
Great review Woody! I'll be checking this album out for sure.
 
^^I think behind NIN's "Year Zero" this may be my favorite album of the year. I also noticed on the cover, there's a sticker that says "the solo album from the voice of system of a down" possibly a diss towards darron? Who provided most of the vocals on the last 2 SOAD albums, hmm....
 
i dont see it as a diss really. serj is still more well known than daron, and toxicity sold a bunch more than hypnotise/mezmerise combined.

and year zero is defo my fave album of this year too.
