System of a Down posted this in Facebook today. I'm not sure if they're taking the piss, or serious? Quite embarrassing if it's the latter.

Coming back after their post Toxicity hiatus was the mistake.

Even though it's got more than a few novelty moments going for it, Their Satanic Majesties Request takes the cake in this conversation. What a weird moment in Stones history.

I can't find the post anymore. It was captioned with something like "Now available in the online store" or something.

As expected, it was slammed with hundreds of comments about "wtf?" and "you say fuck capitalism, now this".

Ciccone Youth, however, is a fascinating and violent take on pop music in the late 80s. What was hinted at on Evol is fully realized on this release. Only Sonic Youth could make a beatbox sound so...damaged. At the very least, it's an interesting side step. Pretty Hate Machine wishes it could be this darkly tongue in cheek danceable.
