1. Suite-Pee 10/10
Probably one of the best album openers ever. If not the best. It has this strange and bizzare harmonic riff at the beginning. It confuses you when you listen to it. It's just that damn good.

2. Know - 8.9/10
I love the drumming in this song, John is just amazing. The only thing that it gets a point off is because the guitar part gets a bit repetitive. Overall, this song kicks ass.

3. Sugar - 10/10
C'mon, I have to give this the extra point. It's just too great, Daron makes the simplest riffs sound great. This song is singing and dance quality too =D
it always soudns great live and can be screwed around with funny lyrics(Just ice cream, I licked everyone!)

4. Suggestions 8.8/10
The beginning sounds very melodic and interesting. The song goes on until
it's released compleltely at 1:38 where everybody goes crazy. Amazing

5. Spiders 10/10
I just love spiders. It's so deep and meaningful in lyrics and once you listens to the first few notes in the beginning you will be drawn into the rest of the song. Awesome

6. Ddevil 8.5/10
Not my cup of tea, but still a heavy and funny song. With strange lyrics SHAKE YOUR SPEAR AND SHAKESPEAR. Genius, haha.

7. Soil 10/10
This song melodicly and heaviness just owns everything. On this song, like Know, the drumming is just spectacular. The solo just doesn't give up and is very good. Amazing song

8. War? 9/10
Great political song, very heavy and bouncy. The beginning riff is fun to listen to with the dead notes.

9. Mind 9.1/10
Ok, I've just listened to this mother fucker of a song a lot more. I think it is now one of SOAD's greatest songs. It is just so powerful in the guitar and bass parts and the lyrics are very quote worthy. Great song

10. Peephole 10/10
This song is great, the beginning riff sounds deep and mysterious. It's just hard to explain how great this song is.

11. Cubert 7.7/10
A strange song this is. The name is fun to say though XD

12. Darts 8/10
Kind of sounds like the other songs, but Serj's voice at the beginning(And pretty much through all the song) is funny. Good song

13. PLUCK 8/10
It's not really that special IMO but a good song.

Overall, this album rocks. But of course is does, it's SOAD.

Edit: I edited it

The only reason mind isn't the best song(It is a very good song, however) is because mostly on my part. I'm pretty impatient waiting for the faster parts from the slow beginning. But it's still a good song, I've listened to the BDO 2002 verson quite a few times now.
