7:23 That's one of my favorite lines of all time. _"Life is a waterfall, we're one in the river and one again after the fall."_ i.e. everyone is united by the womb and the grave, but anything in-between is your own shit.

"Life is a waterfall, we're one in the river and one again after the fall" - hits me everytime

Serj's voice is so unique, definitely a goat. And it just blends perfectly with the music they play as a band.

I know you’re getting a lot of SOAD suggestions, but I think Prison Song is the next one you should do. The lyrics aren’t obscure on that one, it’s very in your face and straightforward.

Up Next: This band dropped a diss record on a whole state....

Stellar reaction as always big dog. Hope "Spiders" by SoaD is on your list to react to, if not it needs to be!

“Lost in Hollywood” is one of my favorite Serj song right up there with Aerial.

Serj also harmonizes with another great singer in Daron, which is a big part of SOAD's sound.

System of a Down is a classic, even when I’m not really listening to metal or rock if one of their songs come on, it’s getting played in full lmao. Also you had me thinking Shia made it into the music video

System has dozens of great songs! You really can’t go wrong. I’d recommend BYOB next. Their guitarist Daron also does amazing harmonies and also lead vocals on many of their songs too and has a very distinct voice that perfectly complements Serj’s voice. Check out their songs “vicinity of obscenity” and “IEAIAIO” for some really funny vocal deliveries that are fun tongue twisters!

Can I just say.... I absolutely LOVE when you realize that the song is going to be a banger.. and you get that smile of anticipation. I've seen you do it a few times and it just makes me so excited for you lol

I can’t click fast enough on your rock reactions, man. And they never disappoint.

You should probably listen to Hypnotize by SOAD next 😂

"Prison Song" with lyrics next!!!! That shit goes nutssssss!!!

I was scared the first time I heard Serj's vocals. Its like calling or convincing you and once you turn your head around you can never go back

That descending riff is so iconic and distinct.

As soon as I saw the title I jumped on it. That is one of my favorite songs from system of the down

One of my favorite SOAD songs! At the end of the video suggestions the top right was "Tool - Sober (Live)" you have to check that out!

LOL he really does look like a magician.

3:55 Also, you probably already seen in comments that all 4 members of SOAD are Armenian-American, so you also get that Middle Eastern influence in those vocal melodies/harmonies.

Glad the rock marathon is still on 🙌

3:40 i feel you on that one. One of the best voices all time. Also, when you do linkin park, do songs form the first 2 albums as first. it's the classic stuff.

Speaking of hypnotize

I am learning guitar and currently learning this song and its just as fun to play as it is to listen to!

The Shia clip at the end killed me XD so glad you're still loving them and especially Serj's wonderful vocals. By far my favourite metal vocalist and so happy you feel the same about it!

Not only great reaction, as always, but your editing is fucking hilarious. Shia at the end :D :D :D LMAO

MORE METAL! This is a deep rabbit hole bro! Im here for it man

System of a down is top tier rock. People say its over rated, the dude are assholes. Fuck it w.e. stil been rocking with System since i was like 12. I love that they sing poetry. Anf they have song called hypnotize. Mezmorize or something

One of the best songs ever written and I’m a kid from Oakland

Notified, just late to the party! Great band!! Great song!!!❤️

Holy Mountain, Mr Jack, Spiders, Suggestions, Innervision, Hypnotize, Streamline, Tentative, Dreaming, Forest, Soldier Side, Revenga - all bangers

So happy to see you do this song. Never was a rock fan myself but recently ive been enjoying exploring the genre!

Love the channel. Keep up the great work. One Love

Hypnotized you say. That's an album of them

I saved this one for last. This is my 10/10. Not only my favorite SOAD song, but one of my favorite songs period. Great reaction.

This is my FAV rock band in the world ‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️

Daron needs more credit for the vocals of this band. Serj is amazing but Daron supports and at times leads the vocals SO WELL. Give him some love.

Omg yes!! Finally been waiting 7 months for you to do another system of a down! 👏🏼👏🏼🥰🥰

They do have a song called Hypnotize!

I’m loving your content !

Maybe some Serj's single? Empty Walls and Harakiri are amazing!

The turn of the rhythm intensity at 4:43 is what turns a good to a great song

love your reactions mate!! exactly how feel with their music

I grew up with System of a Down 🔥🐐

System of a down has a song called hypnotize

one of the greatest music videos ive ever heard

Swimming through the Void, We hear The Word. We lose Ourselves, but We find it All!

Yo Michelle, don't know if anyone has mentioned it yet, but Tech Nine features Serj on his track "Straight Out The Gate". Dope as fuck. Love the honest reactions homie. I'm a metal and hip hop head till I die. Stay true. 💯🍻🤘✌️👍

The way he loves Serj voice makes me so happy

Hahaha, man. That was epic!

Thank you Michelle, just THANK YOU!

TOOLs lead singer songwriter MAYNARD has a classical background too He sings about the soul human ascension and conspiracy its DOPE AF

System of a Down also have a song with Wu Tang Clan called shame, high energy and kick ass

Finally reacted to my favorite SOAD song :D

Don't stop rockin out ...everrrr!!

🤣🤣🤣 make love to my ears🥰 system has been the shyt for many yrs now, my old skool stuff. Glad u like it.

Audioslave - Gasoline I can never preach enough

I love your rock reactions!

I'm not complaing at all Bro. Keep doing You, and Cheers from Australia!

Next: Question… Serj go crazy!

U r good! Great to see a lad Listening to all. U de man

My fave SOAD song, the lyrics on this one are so perfect.

Yea these fire just subbed

Prison song and Lonely day. Lonely day has got to be my favourite. SOAD don't miss

When you lose small mind, you free your life When you free your eyes, eternal prize

you should check out serj's solo album too called elect the dead...dope!

"Make love to my ears, Serj!" This guy gets it. Love this channel. Keep on finding new stuff and feeding us!

This song is just great

oh you did do Aerials!!!!!! Yes!!! Ignore previous suggestion on earlier vid! lolol

Minha banda favorita, foi ela que fez eu me apaixonar por rock e me fez questionar muitas coisas sobre a vida. Gostei do vídeo, ganhou um fã do Brasil! Faz mais do System!!!

You’ve got to do SOAD’s Spiders next. I think it will hit you harder than any of the others. The vocals take you on a roller coaster ride! Patiently waiting!

Good stuff man. Keep it up. Nice to see you continuing to get into rock. And that dude in Audioslave is Chris Cornell. 2nd best voice in rock history imo right behind Mercury. Definitely get into more of his stuff bro. His acoustic covers, sound garden and more Audioslave

Love system!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥

Aye good shit man

this one of my favorites, great band

Love the reactions brotha! Still waiting on that new Los joint 😏

Quickest summary of meaning that I can come up with because they are complex and deep thoughts and I don’t want to write a book on this for 10 people to read. Basically we’re all looking up at these rich people with the big house, cars, possibly fame, etc. and we strive for these things thinking they’ll make us happy. But then when people get there they realize they haven’t found any happiness. That in our efforts to be individualistic we often lose sight that we are all part of something bigger.

KZfaq isn't against Tool; Tool's against KZfaq Also, Serj uses different tonal scales than used in the west which gives it a distinctively unique sound

One band I regret not seeing live. So 🔥🔥

Do Question! Next. Or I-E-A-I-A-E-I-O or it’s something like that lol

Bro all my respects to you You’re the best And SOAD is the best band ever 😎

Just so you know, Tech N9ne and Serj have a song together. Straight out the gate It will be a good way to blend back into the hiphop. No wait, do what ever you wanna do, your there realist reactor about. Peace

Thank you!

You want Live versions to react to?🙂 5 words.. Pantera-Domination live in Moscow.

Next gotta be either Prison song, A.D.D(American dream denial), or Holy mountains. Great reaction man

Yep, def GOAT status!! Enjoying these reacts... hope he keeps real... one of the thing i like so far is he no like he say so, no reason to get butthurt fans!! Lol cool concept with the videography (not sure if thats the right word for it) and should help agaisnt copywrite strikes

Was that Shia LaBeouf? Lol I've never seem that part b4 love this reaction..

everyone wants to be a rock star. doesn't matter what genre you are into.

Chis cornell! Angel with blue eyes! Audioslave

Great reaction! My recommendation would be to listen to Sugar, Spiders, BYOB, Question, Innervision, Chic N Stu, and Prision Song. I'm a System of a Down fan and love all of their albums but these I HIGHLY recommend if you want to do reactions. You'll have a day where you will get a album and just listen to it all the way through, some song meanings are a lot clearer to understand from the lyrics while others are left a lot to your own interpretation. Let their music sink. TOOL, SYSTEM OF A DOWN, and RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE are some of the best bands to listen to. Welcome to the club! 🎶🎸

PRISON SONG! You gotta do it. 10/10 song in your words :)

Now you gotta do hypnotize by System of a Down

Loving the SOAD reactions. Definitely recommend doing "spiders" next but also I think you should give the other vocalist in SOAD Darren get some shine and do "lonely day"

yes, more System )

Man if there's a way that you can react to both albums that will be awesome, Mesmerize and Hypnotized are on another level, the same way one starts is the same way the 2nd ends.

I don’t usually think about the meaning of System Of A Down songs until repeat listening, unless it’s something super obvious. The first time is always just about that feel.

It was chop suey, the other song you did 😆 Please react to their song "Hypnotize". Especially because you mentioned you were hypnotized 🤣please!!!! You'll love it

Best react channel on KZfaq.

Listen to disturbed, their lead singer also has an opera backround

Aye man good job going thru these groups that had real substance. Rage, Tool, SOAD. Lemme throw some suggestions out there for you Queens of the Stone Age “Go with the flow”. Muse “Knights of Cydonia”. Arctic Monkeys “Do I wanna know”. Prophets of rage which is Rage + Public Enemy. Great music with real meanings. Aye bro keep killin it
