SOAD albums Mezmerize and Hypnotize.

Not all their best songs on those two albums, and some of them kind of sucked tbh.

However. How the fuck ever.

Listen to the entire pair, all the way through, in order, longhand. I don't care, just do it.

When you get to the last track, Soldier side, it pulls together all the themes that have been foreshadowed and hinted at across two entire albums, and oh holy fucking shit. When it breaks, your jaw will drop.

Trilogy started out meaning three works, but in common usage it generally doesn't any more.

I respect you for this incredibly outlandish take. I will start saying a few but only meaning two. A couple? Could be anything. Several will now be seven only.

Who are you and what did you do to the real TheBananaKing?

Pretty sure I've been the only thebananaking since like 2009...

SOAD had two great albums, and they most certainly were not Mezermize/Hypnotize. And Steal This Album wasn't even a real album.

like I say, they definitely weren't their best songs. But the way they slowly lead up to Soldier Side was fucking genius.
