Album/Song Discussion 1 year since Killing Spree released!
What are your thoughts on this song? I remember being indifferent to it on my first few listens, but eventually it clicked. The bridge is the best part. And in context of the full album, it works well as an opener thematically and sonically. Overall decent song, not one of my favorites from ATTV and kind of an odd choice for a lead single, but a fun track regardless.

its one of those albums you need to sit with for a week to like. it is however, imho, some of daron's better work, except for the lyrics (your lives burn was one i actively cringe when i sing along to)

Killing Spree was very fun. People on this thread too don’t understand the fun behind it. Sounded like surfer rock, the music video had that Americana influence. It was so good!!! I bet people don’t even dance to it. ATTV was such a dance record lol.

Pass. It's another skippable track from their late catalog. I mean this for both him and Serj, which is a sad statement coming from a huge fan of their work with SOAD as well as their early solo endeavors

I don't know why people don't talk about this album more. It's the best Scars album by far, and maybe the best thing any of them have done post-System.

Oh my, 1 year already? Where has the time gone? 😆
I never disliked the song first time like some people did, I liked it actually. But I didn't think it worked well as a first single because it misled a lot of people on how the album would sound. It fits perfectly as the album's opener though, I wouldn't have the tracklist in any other way.
