An amazing bad, System of a down are metal, but to all the jackass's out there who say they are crap... your fucking wrong, as the stuff they sing about adress's the world's problems. Daron Malakian is one of the best guitarist of his time, Serj Tankian is an amazing singer, Shavo Odadjian is a slick bass player, and John Dolmayan is a skillful drummer. One of the best bands on the planet, they are just freaking amazing in every sense of the world. Owning three of their albums, I have listened to them enought to know they are amazing. The band's type of music is generally alternative metal/rock, thugh they have turned their genre into an amazing style. So to all the System fans out there, though System arn't the best, they are ONE of the best, and I sault you. To everyone who is a fan of metal and hasn't tried them, you'll love them, and if your a dumbass who thinks they scream/shout and can't sing, then do yourself a favour: get a life.
if you like System Of A Down, but are new to them, a great Album to start with is Toxicity - not only a great album, it has some of the best songs ever made on it
when i first heard their cd, it wasnt that great..then i started listening to it again and again and the songs start sounding so good, i think soad is one of the best bands of our time. one thing i love about them is there individual sound, i havent heard any other band that sounds like them.
Blatantly un-Pop. Only ignorami would consider them to be Pop Music, and probably have only heard 2-3 of their songs (Chop Suey, Toxicity, Aerials).
Do what the title says and "Steal This Album," so you can listen to some real music.
SOAD are the best band there has ever been and ever will be!
Nobody in the whole world can top them!
System are NOT pop! In anyway or form...yes they have been on MTV a few times that dont make them pop!
Anybody willing to slag them off at all! Will be shot!
System of a down is such a good band:p
A band whose musical influence hail from Armenia. Their lyrics are open to interpretation and speak of politics, religion and experiences. System of a Down's lyrics are subject to debate because they rely heavily on interpretation *1. As is their music, although the basic chords and repetitive nature contributes well towards emphasis and overall catchiness of the song *2. Their music cannot be easily categorised with "fellow" bands Slipknot and Korn. Despite popular belief, their music fluctuates from song to song, depending on the theme ("Mind" to "Roulette". They are atheists and on the whole against the way that the world is governed. Such popular songs include "Chop Suey" and "Toxicity." Their name derives from a poem called "Victims of a Down"
Serj Tankian - Vocals, keyboards
John Dolmayan - Drum
Daron Malakian - Guitar, vocals
Shavo Odadjian - Bass
All of whom descend from Armenia.
1. "Somewhere between the sacred silence, scared silence and sleep"
2. "I need to fuck the sys, I need to fuck the sys, I need to fuck the sys."
a band that is the closest thing to people playing hockey in a department store in the sky, and the songs playing are the songs by them, and people who disect a band's style of playing, think they're guinesses, and then call the band crap, are a far ways away.
geez that hockey game was so good you'd think it was a system of a down
Yes, system of a down is great
