LISTENING TO "SYSTEM OF A DOWN" FOR THE FIRST TIME... ("CHOP SUEY" & "TOXICITY") | REACTION 

I freaking love watching people discovering System of a Down

Other SOAD songs I would definitely recommend are "Aerials", "Spiders", "B.Y.O.B.", and "Sugar". "B.Y.O.B." is my personal favorite.

I love when you start singing along lol my favorite System of a Down song is Aerials, it has a good music video for you too

It's worth mentioning that Wu-Tang Clan's RZA and System of a Down's bassist Shavo Odadjian had a hip-hop group called Achozen.

Serj Tankian is the primary singer and he is a Trained Opera Singer 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Ay bruh not too ,many people react to this song but radio/video is fire. Shit might fuck around and be one of my favs tbh

SOAD is 100% a band u are going to love if u like these 2. 5 great albums, 4 of them elite.

To the meaning of the second song "Toxicity", this is my interpretation. "Conversion, software version 7.0." (constant upgrade and instant abandonment to even slightly outdated stuff) "Looking at life through the eyes of a tirehub." (i take this image quite litterally, if you are looking at the world from the perspective of a wheel while the car is driving, you will see everything spinning.) "Eating seeds as a past time activity." (I take seeds metaphorical here, eating seeds, like eating the source of life or feasting on the wellbeeing of the next generation) "The toxicity of our city." (society is hostile towards itself) "Now, do you own the world? How do you own disorder??" (Speaking to power hungry people who want to control everything, yet disorder can never be controlled) "Somewhere between the sacred scilence and sleep." (the sacret scilence is death or non-existance while sleep is... well sleep. So between death and unconsciousness there is awake life.. which is by itself chaotic and disorderly) Bottom line, you can't control other people, things are moving too fast, society is flawed, we harm our children and so on. The last line is very powerful. "When i became the sun, i shun life into the mens hearts." I think thats just an appreciation for existance.

Chop Suey was originally called Suicide, before they were forced to change it. It talks of how people judge others for how they died(example overdosing on drugs), but not how they lived.

SOAD is straight fire. I would recommend having lyrics near you when catching these videos the first time.

Please…go down their rabbit hole, you’ll be so glad you did. Ariels and maybe Prison song (with lyrics on prison song) next. You’ll see how diverse they are and you’ll be able to catch the message maybe a bit easier with those two. They are fire though!

Prison Song, BYOB by System of A Down next

Serj is a gorgeous and talented fucking genius!! Definitely check out Lonely Day, Aerials, and BYOB.

"When I Became The Sun I Shone Light Into The Mans Heart" 🔥❤‍🔥🔥😎

Hypnotize is another must

"Somewhere between the sacred silence in sleep disorder"

My daughter knew the words to this album at 4 when the album first came out !!! That crazy dude spit water in my face at a Saliva concert outside in Iowa.

You'll start hear the Second vocalist more once you hear some songs from their albums "Mezmerize" and "Hypnotize"

System!!!!! Great pick. This is a great rabbit hole if you need one to go down. Excellent music for over 20 years!

Glad you are checking them out! You should also react to spiders & hypnotize. Those are bangers 🔥🔥🔥🔥

Serj is such an amazing vocalist. He did a song with Tech N9ne worth checking out called "straight out the gate" 🔥

I love that guitarist, he played for Saliva too !

I used to have Chop Suey as my alarm 😂 Awesome reaction!

Who else got their system/deftones tickets?? San Francisco here we come! (Flying in from Boston)

Another great reaction 😮‍💨 also Lil Uzi Vert covered chop suey on his Pink Tape album. Song is just called CS

Just came across your channel when I saw SOAD thumbnail 😄 and had to watch and subscribe. I love this band ❤ thank you for the double reaction, you surprised me 😁 thumbs 👍 💯 Check out Tech N9ne’s collaboration with System of a Down’s Serj Tankian - Straight out the Gate, Tech N9ne always like system of a down specially when he watched their song Sugar, he talks about it.

This was my sh!t all through middle and high school back when i used to skate!

As for me they are the best. No matter what others think🤣

Haha! U need to react on every single song

Do they mosh pit?!? 😳🤘🏼🤣 All of my tattoos are around scars from some one climbing on my shoulders(aka doc burns). Love, love the reaction!!

Love SOAD! You can listen another vocalist solo in "Lonely day"

i loved your reaction.. you ll go crazy when you watch a live from 2001-2002

Awesome reaction ❤

brother I recommend you react to korn in his live at Woodstock 99 blind, twist and chi ❤

They are amazing ❤

Appreciate you react to couple of videos❤

That's talent !!!🤘

BYOB!!

cool video bro

Ieaiaio is a fav of mine. Rap fans can even appreciate Sergs flow on this.

Fire 🔥

Some other really good SOAD songs are "prison song" and "BOOM!" You should have the lyrics up with those tho because the lyrics are very important and both songs have very good messages

SOAD has a fantastic catalogue of songs. Shimmy, Dreaming, Spiders are my favorites aside from chop suey

FOR THE FIRST TIME....two minutes into the video, "I've heard this before"

You should react to skindred, it is a band that mixes metal and reggae, I recommend their songs nobody and rat race

Maybe a hot take but their self titled album is their best. I’d love a reaction to any of those songs

I would love to see you react to against the machine, make sure to listen to killing in the name and bulls on parade

it was supposed to be called 'self-righteous suicide' but record label said no. Then they thought 'slef-right - CHOP SUEY-cide' lol

Should hit up BYOB and Areals next followed by Streamline and Sugar!

Cant go wrong with SOAD, Man you HAVE to do I-E-A-I-A-I-O.

I'm a girl. and I be in that pit, and yes every song !!!

You have to check out Alien Ant Farm!!

AERIALS!

Holy mountains is a personal favorite from SOAD👌🏼 definitely check it out! it's about the Armenian genocide, which is key bc all members of SOAD are Armenian.

need to do Aerials and byob! also the band PANTERA!!!

Spiders!!

☮️💜🤘🔥

ieaiaio next

New subscriber!! Please react to Rage against the machine "killing in the name of". Turn on captions so you don't miss any words. Such much meaning- especially in today's world. That song is so 🔥

React to tetragrammacide next

I see you enjoyed this one. You should check toxicity.

The Armenian Culture got so much Pain and Drama in their past, you can hear that in their Music.

U probably heard this because lil uzi vert did a cover of it

Please listen to breaking Benjamin So cold ❄️

You should check out BYOB

Hello can you react to Rage Against the machine next? And make sure pull up the lyrics if u react to them 😊

A song about mental illnesses 🤟🏻

Consistent dante
