haha, I liked this album when I was younger, I still feel a spot for it, the singles are really good, I still like it, my father loves this one so I have to listen to it for most of time he listens. Not so good as toxicity or they debut but it is still a pleasant listening....

Its good! I wish they released this and Hypnotize as a proper double album. Their debut is their best, imo.

[Happymeal]

B.Y.O.B. is my jam

SOAD is fun as fuck. Just listening to them can get me pumped. Toxicity is my fav by them as the quality is more consistent throughout on that one, but SOAD doesn't typically do too bad on anything they release. That doesn't mean I'm crazy about everything they do, but it's generally pretty good.

[manurock]

The only album I listened so far from SOAD and I like it, especially some parts like "Question", "Radio/Video" or "Lost in Hollywood" (although I can understand that the latter isn't typical SOAD), which combine their crazy stuff with some fine music and lyrics.
I don't like others like the praised "BYOB", where they become too crazy for me

[CA Dreamin]

Great album. BEA users got it right - this the second-best behind Toxicity. And B.Y.O.B was hands down the best anti-war song to come out during the Iraq War.

[Decurso]

Not as good as Toxicity, but easily their most catchy album. Radio/Video, Old School Hollywood and Violent Pornography are great songs. One of the best albums of the 21st century IMO.

[Precedent]

It's pretty good, but a bit frightening.

Maybe if there was more of a presence in the honor of the glockenspiel, I'd like it more.

[Kaiser]

I spent the summer of 2005 listening to this album again and again. Such unforgettable days.

[denmarkman]

Yeah, it's pretty good. Certainly their second best behind their debut. Not terribly bothered to listen to it much these days, though. I suppose I should revisit it; I first discovered it in the summer of 2005 and it played a pretty major role in my formative music-listening years. There's a whole lot of nostalgia here for me, certainly.
