System of a Down

[Zombiliciouss]

System of a Down is an American-Armenian band.

Their style ranges anywhere from Metal to Progressive Rock

Their current band members are:

Shavo Odidjian: Bassist
Daron Malakian: Guitar, Backup vocals
Serj Tankian: Lead vocals
John Dolmayan: Drums

My fave songs by them:
Chop Suey!
Soldier Side
Bounce
A.D.D.

Some of their popular songs are:
Chop Suey!
B.Y.O.B.
Lonely Day

Sadly, System is currently on Hiatus

I personally think they are the best band ever. What do you think?

[WolfShot]

SOAD is one of the greatest bands ever! No matter what song I'm listening to I'm always rocking out, and not caring what others think. Long live SOAD!!!

[Brewmaster]

Ah like one of my most favorite bands!
I like many of their songs.The best ones are BYOB,Chop Suey,Violent Pornography,Toxicity.In my opinion. :]
Serj is one of the best singers Ive seen.Great voice and really clear even when he sings fast.

[Hamashimura]

Well...at least they're trying to rock...
But despite the fact that I would replace them with anything,I still listen to them,from time to time...I dislike them,but I can like them at exact same time...I find their play humoruous,that's what's attracting me...Not all of their stuff,but yeah,there are things that make them funny...Especially on live performances...It's one funny heavy metal band,full of comedy,but even if I made it sound stupid,I still can listen to them...Their quality lies in their humor...

Sucks they're on hiatus, but Serj's solo Elect The Dead stuff rocked, so I'm fine with it.

I left arrow three the following songs: Toxicity, Deer Dance, Forest, Spiders, Psycho, Sugar, etc. etc. etc....

[Zombiliciouss]

^Cloud, what do you think is better? Sej's solo stuff or Scars on Broadway?

[╬Karami Mew~Meow]

Ohz~! I love SOAD~!!! <333 Yeah, Chop Suey was one of my favs <3 They've got awesome songs =3

[The Wing Man]

I actully liked a couple of there songs, the vocals are not so bad and some of the sounds work.

[Haze is Dreamin']

I dislike them.

[ChristoF]

I wouldn't say they are the best band in the world, thats taking it a bit far but I like a couple of there songs and i have a couple of there albums on my Ipod.

[Zombiliciouss]

^I'm sorry man, my fanboy got the better of me. Let me word it better: They are my favorite band in the world.

SOAD is a love/hate band for me. Their stuff is really smart, but hard to digest, like a high fiber diet...
I like bubbles, toxicity, aerials, chop suey, attack, hypnotize, pictures, and some of their other stuff. It's really experomental and unique, but not all of it works. I still love 'em though...

[Neliel~]

I love soad before the cd with byob

[IchigoKiss]

They're not a bad band.I don't really listen to them but
they have this song called Aerials, I think it's good

[SigmaSD]

I have to agree that Chop Suey is pretty good. And Bubbles is good too. But other than that, it's a pretty average band to me.

[Cloud.]

I left arrow three this band 'til the day I die.

They have such a great catalogue of songs, it's nuts. Either funny, political, or just aggresive, they're an entertaining group. Shame they've gone on hiatus, but Serj's solo album kicked *** regardless. So, I still win to some degree as a fan.

Just two great songs to throw out there.

[Zombiliciouss]

Update: I heard rumors about a reunion at Eurovision next year. Serj Agreed to do it as long as they can push the armenian genocide. anyone else hear anything about this?

[Cloud.]

A reunion or just them playing together for the occasion? Because as far as I know, Daron is only focused on Scars right now.

OH, and to answer your question from September Zomb, I prefer Serj's solo music to Scars, although "They Say" is pretty good.

[FLASH-X]

I realy love the music of SOAD..........my fav song by soad is lonley day and chop suey ,,,,,i hope they get back on track as soon as possible

[Junpei Kurono]

Does anyone realize Daron and John's solo gig?
I mean seriously people are all like 'OMG MY BFF JILL!!! SOAD! OMG!! TOO BAD ON THAT BREAK THINGY HEHE!! SERJ'S STUFF IS AMAZING!! HEH!!' Come on Daron is bomb too... D:

[Zombiliciouss]

I personally preferred Scars to Serj's thing. Sure, Serj's thing was great. but imo scars was better.

[Lord of Death]

I love system of a down!!!!!!! The songs I listen to is Toxicity, arial, and one other song I cant remember the name of...
