With Rage Against the Machine disbanded, System of a Down ascend to the political aggro-rock throne, and with Steal This Album, the Los Angeles-based quartet prove themselves worthy to wear the crown. A play on the late activist Abbie Hoffman’s Steal This Book, the album consists of 16 System songs from the mid-1990s through 2001. The band stresses the songs are not "B-sides or outtakes"; in fact, they clearly show System at their apex. These smart, varied songs feature Serj's frenetic, staccato, Jello Biafra-like phrasing atop the band's edgy, commanding, metal-meets-punk base. From the funny, frantic "Chic 'N' Stu," to "F**k the System," "A.D.D. (American Dream Disorder)," and "Boom!" System keep listeners guessing with discomfiting time changes that match up with Serj's incendiary lyrics. In keeping with their creative, fan-oriented approach, System are releasing four limited runs of the CD, each version featuring artwork from a different band member. This is not escapist rock. It's an intense and eye-opening aural history lesson you can mosh to. --Katherine Turman

Summary: A very good album considering they're leftovers
Comment: Ok the title might give you a wrong impression. They were leftover from toxcicity but dont dismiss this as a cash in for junk songs. They are all very good rivaling other system of a down songs. Many were left over becuase of the less significant lyrics than toxcicity's theme would have really allowed. More joke-y in some cases but still giving the good stuff you should expect from system of a down.

Summary: F××k you pig.
Comment: I met the drummer of this band at a comic convention with a friend around the time l picked this album up. It was icing on the cake because I have been a fan since the self-titled record. I dont care if this is a collection of b-sides I treat it as an album. Stand out tracks: Mr.Jack, Ego-brain. Under Toxicity this is their best release yet.
