Very intellectual and talented, System of a Down is one of the most unique sounds to hit Nu-Metal. Unlike Korn or Slipknot, System has the ability to write AND play their own music, with complete and utter talent.
All four members are of Armenian heritage and speak loudly of the unspoken Armenian Genocide of the late 1800's and early 1900's. They are heavily influenced by their roots and many other styles of music, and always open to new ideas.
Members of System:
Serj Tankian- lead vocals
Daron Malakian- guitar, backing vocals
Shavo Odadjian- bass
John Dolmayan- drums

A freaking awesome band. Their lyrics dont make sense half of the time unless u think about them. Their political views are great as everyone has stated, but nobody gave an example. The lyrics to "Prison Song" are incredibly true.
"All research and sucsessful drug policys show that treatment should be increased!
DIE!
And law enforcement decreased while abolishing, mandatory, minimum sentences!
DIE!
(later)
Utilizing drugs to pay for secret wars around the world, drugs are now ur global policy now u plice the globe!
(later)
Drug money is used to rig elections and train brutal corporate sponsor dictators around the world!"
Let's get right to the point. Even though every single one of them are going to hell, their music is the BEST. Heavy metal band that is enjoyed by EVERYONE. The screaming and heavy instrument playing is simple amazing.
DUDE, SYSTEM OF A DOWN ROX MA SOX!!!
