Daron Malakian and Scars On Broadway - They Say

Band: Daron Malakian and Scars On Broadway (formerly Scars On Broadway)
Song: They Say
Album: Scars On Broadway (2008)
Genre: Alternative Metal
Language: Strong

Now I know this band is technically an Alt Metal act, but when I found them they were in a Punk suggestion list. I don't remember exactly how, but they were.

With that in mind, please listen to the vocals and that guitar line after the chorus and understand why I thought they sounded just like The Dead Kennedys. Specifically songs like Holiday In Cambodia, cause there's some heavy vibes of that in here.

Turns out Scars On Broadway is a band formed by Daron Malakian, former System Of A Down guitarist and backing vocalist. Knowing that, I can't help but hear the traditional SOAD harmony work going down here, but I'm not mad about that. It's actually a sound that really lends itself to what's going on. Bumped the song up into one of my top 5 in the January/February area, so that's cool.

You can follow me on Facebook, Twitter, and Google+, or even sponsor me on Patreon. No big, do whatever. But yeah, Twitter and Facebook are where I’m most active.

What I'm about

I am Noah, king of casual english; One of those bloggers that just doesn't know how to string a proper sentence together to save his life. I really apologize for those of you that will hate that, apparently my honors in english just didn't stick.

I like everything from Satanic Thrash to Top 40s trash, so I'll probably hit on at least one song that you like someday.

Let's be real though, my main pull is Death Metal and Rap, so you'll see a decent amount of that since those are the two industries I mainly follow.

Schedule and Stuff

The posts go live at 12 am EST. If they don't, I probably wrote them the night before and fell asleep before actually clicking on the publish button. It's all good though.

Music wise I mostly pull from what I like. I'm totally open to suggestions in the comments, so if there's some genre you want to hear more of just let me know and I'll do what I can.

Some of this music might be offensive to you. Apologies, but it'll probably happen. Heck, 6 or 7 years ago I'd probably be appalled at what I'm listening to nowadays, haha

I'll try to always tag for language if the song has it though, so you can at least make sure not to listen to if around younger ears if that's something that concerns you.
