Six months after their album, Mezmerize debuted at #1, System Of A Down return with, Hypnotize, part 2 of the promised 2-disc set. Produced by Rick Rubin and Daron Malakian, Hypnotize maintains System of a Down's reputation as full-spectrum agitators who adeptly channel righteous rage into compelling, provocative and relevant rock. The packaging for this album is almost identical to that of Mezmerize, and the two packs are designed to slide together to form one Mezmerize/Hypnotize pack.
