System of a Down

System of a Down is a Nu metal band from Los Angeles. All four members are of Armenian ancestry, and some of their songs are about Armenian history and politics.

The band enjoyed moderate success with their first singles, "Sugar" and "Spiders", but their first big hit was the controversial "Chop Suey!", released in the late summer of 2001. System of a Down received constant airplay throughout late 2001 and 2002 with their hits, "Chop Suey!", "Toxicity", "Aerials", and "Innervision".

Their third album is called "Steal this album!" since early recordings of most of the songs leaked out onto the Internet. There are four different designs on the cd's you can get. One version of the CD resembles a CD Recordable with marker writing on it.
