I've been getting into them lately. Any other fans of them here? I like how their music sounds so...schitzo.

Mhmm, get "Boom!" by them.
"Deer Dance" is also key.

They're cool. Though we only have 'steal this album'. I like 'chop suey' and 'inner vision' off that.

I like the fact that they're political. Not many mainstream bands are.

If you have only heard Toxcicity, and steal this album and like it, i would recomend purchasing their self titled first album, its quite unique and a damn good album.

System's good... somewhat harsher than my usual diet of music, though.
In terms of overall quality, their first album was definitely their best. Toxicity was ok, and STA wasn't that great (though there were some good songs on it).
My favorite song... Sugar, Suggestions, Spiders, Peephole, PLUCK, Needles, Forest, Psycho, Aerials, and Innervision all come to mind. Spiders, Peephole, PLUCK and Forest are at the top of the list.

I don't mind em..
A little too preachy and angsty for my tastes sometimes.
By preachy I mean, "kill the government" blah blah.. gets so boring after a few songs.

I used to not like them at all. But recently I started listening to the words of their songs and started enjoying their music. My fav. songs are prison song, chop suey, aerials, fuck the system, science, and toxicity.
