Are you retarded or just pretending?

Daron has used a wide variety of instruments, such as 12-stringed guitars, sitars, ouds, electric mandolins, baritone electric guitars, and synthesizers in his work, and the arrangements show eastern folk music elements. And Serj's vocals were not "semi-urban styled," whatever the fuck that means. His transition from growling vocals to melodic encompassed huge disparities in pitch and volume, and didn't meander in the realm where most nu-metal vocalists force words from their mouths without emotion or pitch. Just because System of a Down is difficult to categorize doesn't mean you should pigeonhole them with the nearest rubbish genre you come across.

And here's a helpful hint for the next time you think about talking: if you DON'T know what you're talking about, DON'T post. It's really that simple.
