the best metal band you can found out there, with a distinct sound un-matched by anything ever.
That System of a Down concert was the best thing ever, it's a shame they don't go on tour more often

system of a down is a hardcore heavy meatal band that kicks ass in pretty much every way possible.They talk the truth and arn't idiot sellouts like 9 out of 10 bands out there. I think the only people who dont like the band are losers, wiggers, and preps(which also fall under the word loser).If people would stop and listen to a band they would realize what the band is trying to say. Some people like wiggers only dress up like a rapper and try and look cool. Dumb asses.
system of a down fan: you like sytem of a down?
wigger: dowg, dat band aint nothin, my tunes ova her goin crazy up in my joint. aint no screamin idiots.
sytem of a down fan:um...OK. do you understand their lyrics and the whole point of thier music?
wigger:maaaaan i nows what i supossed to knows. maaaan last time I hered dat shit my manizzle went fazzizle.
sytem of a down fan:WHAT DOES THAT MEAN!!!!!

okay, i am gettin really pissed off at all the people who are starting to dislike system because of BYOB...so listen up all you retards. This song stands for BRING YOUR OWN BOMB, i have heard countless people say that system is a sell out band because of that song, that song is fuckin amazing. I live for rap music, but system is the only band that i listen to that isn't rap (50 cent is gay, tony yayo is gay, lloyd banks is amazing, and Luda is the best). But if you ever actually read or listen to the lyrics of this kick-ass band you will understand the fucking meaning of their songsSo pretty much what I'm tryin to say to all you retards out there that hate system because you can't understand them is..........READ BETWEEN THE LINES FUCKTARDS!
fucktard: I don't like system of a down anymore because of BYOB.
ME: 'pulls out pickaxe and sticks it in fucktards eyeball'

1. One of the most unique and intelligent bands to come around for awhile. Their lyrics usually seem non-sensical, but always have a deep meaning after you actually think about them.

2. The first actual band (not counting rappers) to top the sales chart twice in a year, on each album's first week, since the Beatles.
1. I highly suggest you listen to at least a few of System of a Down's cd's.

An LA based band whose music once possessed a unique and original blend of armenian and metal influences with deep political subject matter.

But now (November 2005) has abandonned their raw sounding roots towards more melodic/pop vocal directions due to the lead guitarists (Daron Malakian) change in musical taste, although still holding true to their original political lyrical content.

SOAD fan 1 : The New Album Rocks!! System of a Down Rules!! So do Deftones and Mars Volta!! Yea!!

Soad fan 2 : What the hell are you talking about, the first album was the best. They sounded like Slayer, now they sound like everything else on the radio.

Soad fan 3 : You're both whack. Just shut up and enjoy the music.

first off, there are way too many people saying how System of a Down "is crappy pop music" "lyric's make no sense" "overrated" Pop? are you kidding me? You cannot place the likes of Britney Spears and The Click Five with System of a Down. The lyrics are one of the reasons so many people love them. They are so abstract and SOAD lets you decifer what you think the song meaning should be. Someone quoted 'Cigaro' saying how the lyrics (My cock is much bigger than yours/My cock can walk right through the door) are stupid, but you don't even get the meaning. FYI, the song is about how everyone wants to have their stuff bigger and better than everyone elses'. Its mocking the American way: We have bigger weapons, bigger trucks, bigger food, etc. System of a Down is DEFINATLY not overrated. The music is incredible. Simple guitar riffs? Daron, the guitar player, is an incredibly talented person, as is everyone else in the band. All you metal-chomping shitheads who have this harder-core-than-thou attitude need to take a reality check. Just because they are famous, well-known, and are ont he radio doesn't lower the quality of the music. So what if they are popular? They DESERVE the fame-they're simply the best.
System of a Down, the first album is the best by far. Its their self-titled; BUY IT!!
