i really like the somg come oroginal and the restis col too the band is just awesome thats the only way to describe them!

Just wanted to let the peeps know out there because its really not made clear that , while a great disc & awesome band what many people don't realize is that this does NOT come in a digipack like the un-edit-ed version.. just wanted to let ya know.. it may not matter to alot of people but it bugged me..

Soundsystem is the first 311 cd I bought and it was the best investment I have ever made! If you are starting to look into 311, get their music! Even though I only jumped on the 311 "bandwagon" with the song "Come Original" I still consider myself a die-hard 311 fan. This cd is unbeatable and there is absolutely no competition for this band! I can't even begin to tell you how amazing Tim and P-nut are on guitar and bass and the perfect way that Nick and SA's voices blend together. The drummer chad is just as amazing! Every single song on soundsystem is perfectly mastered! The only thing is that I prefer edited cd's (but I don't have the edited soundsytem)so the last song is a little much for me, but other than that, there really is hardly any swearing on it. I would name my favorite song, but I don't really have one because they are all so awesome; although I do prefer come original because that is the song that got me to love 311. If you don't have this cd yet, I am not suggesting, but telling you to go out and buy this cd as soon as you can because you don't know what you're missing--music that is fun to rock to, head-band to, dance to, and just to listen to! Go buy it now!!!!!

My first 311 cd i listened to was Grassroots. That cd immediately turned into 311 forever. Since then i have converted three die-hard 311 haters into fans. After 'roots, 311 never dissappointed me. Soundsystem is the best follow after grassroots. The different style they have on every cd is amazing, and soundsystem style could be the best. GET THIS CD! Songs 4-9 are best six songs in a row on any 311 cd.

A couple years ago, I thought 311 would never again duplicate their excellent self-titled CD, but this one sure comes close. "Come Original" is, in my opinion, 311's best song ever! No lie. The song flat out rocks. Other standout tracks are "Freeze Time", "Livin and Rockin", "Can't Fade Me", "Flowing", "Mindspin", and "Large in the Margin". This CD is one of the best CD's I've bought this year. Oh, a little side note: I read an interview of Nick Hexum in which he says he is totally focused on the music right now and isn't smoking pot, drinking, or anything else. That fact is obvious on this album, because they did an outstanding job with it.

It has tons of great beats that I enjoy and any one who buys this CD will also think it the best they have ever bought peace out!
