SYSTEM OF A DOWN


This is the band which i admire the most..they are in to hard rock !!. the best thing about this band is their lyrics and the way they sing!! ..they bring contraries together!!!i mean that they could sing a very sad song in a jovial way..

Their songs are very meaningful and philosophical ..but they present it in a very funny way!!. any body who hears them for the first time would feel they are crazy!! but they communicate very well through their songs! they make us think about what they sing!!

guys who haven't heard them come on!!! get up they make your head to bang!!!

Band history:

Members:

Serj Tankian,Daron Malakian,Shavo Odadjian,John Dolmayan.

IN THE BEGINNING:

System of a Down came to be after a band from Los Angeles, California, called "Soil" - which featured Serj Tankian and Daron Malakian - broke up. Tankian and Malakian then formed a new band, calling on Shavo Odadjian whom they knew from when Soil shared a recording studio with Odadjian's previous band. Odadjian was originally the band's manager and promoter. Odadjian quickly accepted the offer to join the band as the permanent bassist. Since then managerial duties have been undertaken by highly successful Velvet Hammer Music and streetwise founder David "Beno" Beneviste. One of their first releases was "Sugar", and they have played it at every live performance since then. They found a drummer, Andy Khachaturian, who joined the band.

THEY made their debut in 1998 and are a big hit till now. Their latest release wasan album called Mesmarise..the songs are good!!!

at present the band is at hiatus for a period of time!! but they are not braking up!!!
