My Experience:

System Of A Down is a band that took me a while to get into, not because their music was hard to get into, but because I had been drilled in my head since a kid that they were a "Bad" band.

I mean to say that they were particularly vulgar. But what I wasn't realizing as a child is that they were actually just being facetious in most of their music, and trying to make a point about something in the world.

You can read my article about their political humor Here.

Needless to say, SOAD is a pretty classic band. I don't know many people who haven't at least heard of them, and there is a good reason for it...

...They are hilarious!

Not only that, but Serj Tankian's whaling armenian-type vocals can really walk all over you.

It all fits together in an original and styling composition.

Are they the most experimental band on the shelf? No, not really. But they have worked in their own particular niche which I think no one else has touched.

And that gives them a place on this site.




Noticeable Traits:

  • Really Awesome and Catchy Vocals
  • Heavy Distorted Guitar
  • Lyrics often filthy, but trying to make a point (See "Violent Pornography")
  • Very Political
  • Great Vocal Harmonies

Featured Band:

Gorillaz

Gorillaz is a super classic band, and for a good reason. With some of the best combinations of electronic music, featuring artists from Mos Def, to MF Doom, it's a really incredible band.

Their newest album, "The Fall", was even recording entirely on an iPad! I highly recommend they become an integral part to your music library, and I've been listening to them for the last month straight (Religiously).
