a unique band that has been summarized as nu-metal, metal, rock, progressive rock, and alternative. they have released 5 studio albums system of a down, toxicity, STEAL THIS ALBUM!, mezmerize, and hypnotize. they are the only band in history to release a double album(mezmerize and hypnotize) and have them both hit #1. there song chop suey won the gramy for best metal proformance. they are well known for there "add styled" sound (examples being "sugar" "bounce" and "needels". and there songs are rotted deeply in american politics, war, and drugs. all in all THE BEST FUCKING BAND IN THE WORLD

band composed of insane, crazy people with a very wise insight into the political world in which we live today. they be crazy, but their music fucking rocks. definitely not a sell-out band, and for those of you who are poorly enlightened in this field of music the day this classifies as pop is the day i shove a hot rusty poker up my ass, stick a needle down the little hole at the end of my dick and chop my balls off with a blunt machete. it is not pop in any way shape or form. i dont see where people get these things from...
random dickhead:Did ya hear? System of a Down have classed themselves as a pop band!

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.

System of a Down is a metal band made to display opinions of the band members. While it originally rocked ass, like most good bands, it started slipping up and losing it's quality. They originally knew what they were doing, until a mistake in lyrics.
SOAD is not for people who have an IQ lower than average, or people who are over 52 years old. SOAD continues to be decent, but previously they were extremely good.
If one were to listen to "Steal This Album", one would find a very original and interesting mix of music styles that is still able to retain a very politically inclined and even crazy style. "Hypnotize", the latest album at the time of the creation of this post, will be a great difference in listen. If you would like more information, go to the following wiki:

System of a Down is a rather good band, otherwise, and I suggest a listen.

A band that has no concept of what music is. Lyrics are good but musical talent completely sucks.

an over hyped band with millions of gullible, impressionable teenage fans (witness the overwhelming amount of thumbs down this review will inevitably get). said fans believe anyone who doesn’t like system of a down to be extremely stupid, and often accuse them of being "too dumb to understand the 'deep' lyrics." of course, the band's leading guitarist and songwriter, Daron Malakian, admits even HE doesn't understand his own lyrics. System of a down loves to bash America’s capitalist society, then the band members turn around and cash their multi-million dollar record label checks. hey system, I’ve got an idea for your next album title; "HYPOCRACY!" (don't worry guys, your fans will falsely interpret the title and believe it to have a deep political message. good luck!!)
system of a down fucked the system so much that all the band members got std's.
War!
Fuck the system!
War!
Fuck the system!
Fuck the system!!
War!
Fuck the system!
War!
wow...that's deep
