Hardly.
What kind of question is that? SoaD ftw, noobs.
They are pretty good.
Screw SoaD!
Who is System of a Down? And why do they have such a badass name?

Pretty good band, especially live. It's neat to see how their musical style has been progressing album-after-album, from the heaviness of their self-titled album to the almost poppyness of Mesmerize/Hypnotize. I do think the latter should have been released as a double album though, would probably have made it cheaper, but it's not as if they're the first band to have ever pulled that trick, Metallica's Load and Reload albums for instance (and to be fair, in both cases it's more likely to have been a record label thing rather than the actual bands).
I especially love their first album, since it carries so many memories for me of one long summer that absolutely rocked. For that, SoaD will always have a spot in my collection.

They couldn't be described as a bad band, no matter if someone likes their music or not, simply because of the musical ideas they explore and the talent they possess.
Myself, I used to listen to them a lot, and were definitely my favourite band for a good year.
I hate system of a down.
Owen made this sig. R.I.P.
Exploration of ideas and instrumental talent do not make a band good.
They are horrible.

Also, their lyrics make no sense. Ok if you have to be high to write music, just stay away from the drugs while you write the lyrics, or it'll be complete nonsense, like SOAD's lyrics.
I personally like mesmerize/hypnotize/toxicity, plus the zelda song ^ ^
it opened up a diffrent mindset for me, and helped me to expand my musical tastes and to appreciate other kinds of music, even though if some of thier songs were creepy. Im also glad that they are going on a hiatus, and not getting bogged down with the attention and fame they have acquired.
all in all, one of my favs.
Oh ffs, not this again.
They have talent and they have some good songs, but in my opinion.... Not an awesome band by a long shot. Actually, they are pretty average.
True that. They're one of the bands where I don't even bother trying to understand their message unless it's presented clear as day, because I know I'd be wasting my time.
I dig them a lot. Not so much their first album, but Toxicity and onward is pretty gr8.
Toxicity was badass, other then that I'm not too into em.
Wow, I didn't know SoaD had so many haters. May God have mercy on your soul.
Toxicity was their best Album, most definately. Mes. and Hyp. were both really good. I personally cannot find a song of theirs I hate. I don't like a few of them, but I don't despise any of their music. Anyway, thanks for the comments.
Oh smurf you you pretentious twat.

Crushed Hope, we do not speak to other members like that. Don't do it again.
The self-titled would be their best work, in my opinion. I don't consider them anything special, there are heavier bands, more creative bands, more technical bands, catchier bands and more talented bands that I could be listening to instead.
