3.0 out of 5 stars What a tribute album is..., March 24, 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: Tribute to a System of a Down (Audio CD)

i'm not writing this to review the cd, as much as review the reviews. i'm not entirely sure that these people understand what a 'tribute album' is. By definition, it's an album that's a tribute to another band. This means that it is *not* going to be a remix cd, since it's very difficult to do a tribute to your own band. It is *also* not "a couple of their songs and your own songs that were SOAD styled," this would be a CD with some cover songs on it, which is also not a tribute cd. So, in my opinion, if you are ignorant enough to buy a CD without even undertanding what it is, you deserve a CD one hundred times worse than whatever it is you get.

1.0 out of 5 stars no stars for this one!!!!!!!!, December 25, 2002

What were they thinking? Don't be fooled by everything that says System of a down. The loosers that made this must really hate system or something. People like this should keep tributes like these to themselves. System deserves better than that.

Seriously though, usually when people do Tribute albums, it's either a different style than the original band, or it's a bunch of popular bands doing covers. This isn't either of those. Musically, this CD sounds exactly the same as the original songs. This band just did a bunch of SOAD covers and threw them on a CD. But this band [stinks], yeah sure they play the songs pretty well, anyone can do that, they dont change anything at all. So basically what you got is a CD where the only thing that really sounds different is the vocalist, and not a good one at that. This CD could've been made exactly the same by taking actual SOAD songs, removing the vocals, and having your friend sing karoke. Don't waste your money.
