System of a Down are my favourite band. They have a very unique style so they cannot be put into any genre, but if i had to, i would say they are closest to alternative metal.
To the people who say that System's lyrics have very little or no meaning. Try reading the lyrics.
For the person who said about Cigaro. When they say 'my cock is much bigger than yours' and 'my shit stinks much better than yours' they are saying that worlds leaders argue over petty things, not necessary human waste or genetalia, that was just to make the song amusing- the song is meant to be half-amusing, half-serious.
They are not sellouts. They are not Nu-Metal, they just happened to appear at the time Nu-Metal was emerging.
I think they are the best band this century, even though they appeared in the 90's.
This is the list of the S.O.A.D albums, in order of how good they are, in my opinion.
1. Toxicity
2. Self-Titled (System of a Down)
3. Steal This Album!
4. Mesmerize
5. Hypnotize
For a very good song from System of a Down, listen to Sugar.

shitty band, annoying vocals, every song is the same shit over and over, guitarist sucks and his voice sounds like his balls are being crushed, band hates america so much they should get the fuck out and stop bitching, luckily the dumb bastards are breaking up, lead singer should go back to lebonon and get shot...
thank god system of a down broke up cause they really sucked.

After a hard session of pumping iron, you come home and ejaculate into a cup. You then combine protein powder with the semen in the cup to create an extra potent protein shake. This process has the added benefits of raising ones testosterone levels (by climaxing), and making you feel as though you are saving the world through recycling.
"After doing chest and tri today I only had one scoop of 24g protein powder, so I decided to double down to boost my recovery."
"Dude... that's really gay..."
