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.

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".

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.
