System of a Down

A mainstream alt-metal band of Armenian descent. They are considered a political band despite the fact that most of their songs have nothing to do with politics, though they do concern moral/ethical issues at times. They are not left wing or right wing (they criticize both in their songs, so if you think they are just trendy Bush-haters, you are wrong) but moderates, and anti-war. One of the few nu-metalers from the '99-'01 years to survive the test of time, because they are actually good.

System of a Down saves heavy music once again from metalcore garbage and nu-metal cliches.

System of a Down

An alternative/experimental metal band with 4 current members that stayed together since and brought back great music into the mainstread. All the members of SOAD are of Armenian heritage and are grandsons of Armenian Genocide survivors.

Their lyrics are somewhat simple yet they have a deep meaning once you finally get the point to those songs (which are either very, VERY political or social).

A ton of people confuse System of a Down as a nu metal band because they happen to debut their first album when a bunch of new bands amerged in the same year and they have somewhat similar styles... although SOAD has disnounced that they are nu metal.

They are currently on hiatus.

Oh, and they are as pop music as Britney Spears is to metal... nice thinking, retards.

Memebers: Serj Tankian, Daron Malakian, Shavo Odadjian, John Dolmayan

Albums: System of a Down, Toxicity, Steal This Album!, Mezmerize, Hypnotize

System Of A Down

A nu metal band with a unique sound. Very skilled. Sing what they feel. Play what they feel.

People need to stop flooding this page with their opinions that SOAD is the best. That isnt true. No band is the best. Just because you like one band over another doesnt mean they are the best. Its your opinion if they are good or not.

System Of A Down

System of A Down, or SoaD for short is the greatest band out there. Their lead singer Sarj Tankian and the gutairist Daron Malakian met at their bands seprete recordings. They got along well and they started a band togeather. They ended up getting John Dolmayan the drummer and Shavo Odadjian the bass player. They have released three cds to date. Their Self-Titled System Of A Down, Toxicity, and Steal this Album!. At the current time they are recording a two new cd deal, Hyptnotise and Mesmorize. They are fairly popular and speak aginst war and speak for human rights. They do this in their songs. (War, BYBO, F the System, Boom, Prision Song, Deer Dance, and some others) I would classify them as a metal band. Not a heavier one.

System Of a Down is the greatest band to have ever walked this planet.
