Wow SOAD. I've been listening to so much classic rock and hard rock these days, I've completely forgotten about System.

I like a lot of bands, and a lot of different genres of music, but SOAD is near the top of my favorite bands. One of the best choices I made in my life was deciding to buy every single System album. Their music is like a combination of Slayer and Nirvana, which is just awesome.

My top System songs in a very rough order of which ones I like best:
  1. Soil (the guitar solo on this song is one of my all-time favorite guitar solos)
  2. Aerials
  3. Toxicity
  4. Shimmy
  5. Mind (I love the intro to this song)
  6. Nuguns
  7. Prison Song
  8. B.Y.O.B.
  9. Forest
  10. Mr. Jack [[[[also known as P.I.G.]]]]]
  11. Hypnotize
  12. She's Like Heroin

Notable mentions: Chop Suey! used to be a favorite of mine, but it was overplayed WAAAY too much, and I'm not a fan of it anymore.
Also, Radio/Video is one of the few SOAD songs I blare at max volume in my dorm room at college because it's not offensive, and the scream-o aspects of it are relatively mild.
