Dude, system of a down is Armenian?
Thats pretty cool.
I always assumed they were American, but does it really matter?
Anyways, these guys are my second favorite band, right behind Boston.

I've been meaning to give them a listen. Where should I start?

A lot of stuff that falls under the metal umbrella isn't really my thing, but I still love this band. Aerials is a top-drawer song

Scars is interesting I guess.
Really addicting for a while.
But the lyrics are kinda ridiculous.
"Cute machine that I love. Cute machines, I just can't get enough. They go go go go go go go go."
Those are the lyrics for the entire song.
Although, the music is pretty awesome on quite a few songs.
"Stoner-Hate", "Serious", and "Universe" are my favorite songs,
Even if the lyrics are ridiculous at times.

Yeah, I love System of a Down. Toxicity is a masterpiece I could listen to that album all day.

"Toxicity" is pretty amazing, but it's their only album that is better than Serj's solo stuff, which is also amazing.

Eggman 10-19-2008 08:38 AM

For me, Steal This Album! tops Toxicity.
Of course, Toxicity has the epic "Aerials" and "Forest", but overall, STA! wins with songs like "Innervision" and "Mr. Jack" or "Highway Song".

:D

They are serious musicians, but I've seen them live a couple of times and was really disappointed - they were sloppy, silly, making mistakes all over the place, like they didn't even care. Not so much Serj, but the others. I was really dissappointed with all of their live performances :( Anyone else agree/ disagree?

That's why Serj is the only one people care about.
