I really like Praise the Lord and Pass the Ammunition by Serj, but that doesn't seem intense enough for me...
I'd probebly have to say Violent Pornography, Sugar, or Chop Suey by SOAD.

I think Serj's music is of a very different breed than SOAD, and much more melodic than System. The proprietary driving force in the System career was not Serj, but Daron, who proved he had amazing songwriting skills. I still think their pseudo-double album (Mezmerize/Hypnotize) is one of the best metal albums ever produced, and it was largely at the hands of Daron. I think he may have felt as if the media stripped most of the credit from him and gave it to Serj because of Serj's early influence with the band. That may have led to their hiatus, I don't know. But yes, they have some very intense songs.
