Most of the Beatles early and middle output makes cohesive sense. Tracks like Norwegian Wood stand out for being more out there lyrically. Post 1966, they still had a good number of more traditional songs that had interesting backstories.

I'm okay with that. Both are among my top 5 favorite bands.

SoaD was miles above any other "Nu Metal/Alt Metal" bands of the era imo. Compared to stuff like Disturbed, GodSmack, Mudvayne, Slipknot, etc., they had a hell of a lot more variety and originality in their songwriting. They seem to be the most widely liked irl too.

McCartney was a MUCH better writer and he clearly had the best voice. He was also the best drummer and bassist in the band. 2nd best guitarist after George

SOAD didn't evolve at all like the Beatles did and didn't really put out a Sergeant Peppers level album.

Man I do not like that band or how that "singer" "sings".

Makes 90s grunge seem like the Beatles.

What's next? People saying lincon park is a great band

Toxicity was their Sgt. Pepper.

Them not evolving like The Beatles is a pretty fair point, but there's very few bands (if any) that could match that. In a way, their evolution was Serj and Daron growing into their own individual songwriting styles. With Mesmerize & Hypnotize, you could kind of tell which were "Daron songs" and which were "Serj songs." Ultimately lead to them splitting up though.

I thought Mudvayne had a lot of potential, but the costumes really undermined the artistry of the music.

SoaD had some lame costumes/make-up in the beginning to lol.

The problem I had with Mudvayne and the other bands was the lack of variety. I loved a few songs, but after a while, they all just seemed like screaming and angsty lyrics. SoaD had a alot of light-hearted songs to balance out their heavier ones.
