System of a Down (lyrics, metal, favorite songs, cd, French)

~~steve1~~ · 01-13-2008, 12:38 AM

Yeah, they're a good band. My favorite songs are: Prison Song, Needles, and Jet Pilot. I didn't really like this band at first, but they grew on me.

I like them a lot. At least i did. Still like them just not enough to listen to them reguarly. Serj's record label has some pretty good bands on it tho. Like Fair To Midland.

I ****ing LOVE System of a Down.

I personally relate to them...and the fact that they're politically involved helps.

Their music is just..sdfhaslsdja indescribable, it's really great.

I've always enjoyed their music. I do find I don't really seek it out though, just enjoy it when it comes along. Plus the never really had a great album, above average to very good consistently but never that end to end classic.

I would agree with the sentiment that there is a surprisingly small contingent of SOAD fans here.

Chop Suey is one of the finest metal tracks in years. Love it. Let's have a reminder:

Original vid taken off but you get the gist.

Of which i'm one.
I was a late bloomer though, i know they're one of the typical bands for young teens to obsess over but i'm pretty new to them. Mezmerise is one of the most interesting albums i've heard.

When I was like 10 years old they were the first real heavy metal band I knew. At age 10 I listened to Sugar and Spiders from their first self-titled album. Then I became obsessed with Toxicity. I liked Chop Suey!, Jet Pilot, Aerials, and ATWA. Then I got a burned copy of Steal This Album! I would sing Streamline and Mr. Jack out loud all the time. A few years later Mezmerize came out and I'd turn the radio up every time B.Y.O.B. came on. Soon after Hypnotize came out and I got it for Christmas and it was just as great as Toxicity. Hypnotize, Lonely Day, and Vicinity of Obscenity. I thank SOAD for getting me to quit listening to the old mainstream pop crap and got me into real music. Thank you System!!!

Hypnotize > Mezmerize > s/t > Toxicity >>> Steal This Album!

Hope they hurry up with this hiatus.

I love System of a Down with a great deal of my being. They take up a good portion of my album collection, and like "Bub" said, they were the first metal band I listened to as a kid, and I've been hooked ever since.
