The next artist of our "5 By" series is System Of A Down. On this episode of Cleaning Out The Shed, we go back to 2001. Check out David’s reaction to System Of A Down's "Toxicity".

3:20 surprisingly his talking voice is VERY soft. But I get what you mean, what Serj is doing is adding grit and force to his talking voice and thats what makes it sound like it, thats the thing that you like, and I like it too. What I think is sad is that nowadays Serj doesn't add that grit and force to his voice since he struggles doing it. I think he needs to get some Vocal lessons.

I would play their entire albums or a live show just so i could gain endurance and stamina in my fingers and hand muscles lol. Love these reactions they are so genuine and amazing to hear from a music teacher your own thoughts and feelings. Glad you're falling in love with them. I agree that their music definitely takes you on a journey. A wild one at that haha. The lyrics are a whole nother journey :P Thanks for the content Oh also their live shows are amazing, some might even say they sound better than the studio recordings. Should definitely check out their older live shows. =]

I've loved this song since I was in middle school. The last "disorder" Serj holds is so perfect. The way he maintains the breath control for the whole duration, and the way he shapes the envelope of the sound all the way to the end of the note are just so cool and I geek out every time I hear it. He's not just sustaining that note, but he has a destination in mind and he knows just how to get there.

Ive seen them live many times. Each show has its own vibe. You should have been at the ozzfest in boston where godsmack "told people to chill and the police were outside ready to come in". Then they were boo'd off stage and covered it mud balls. System came out and serj said "are you motherfuckers ready to die!" And the fucking crowd went crazy. Not one ball of mud went toward that stage when they played.

Can't mention enough the drummer John Dolmayan, who was heralded as one of the very best Rock/Metal drummers of the early 2000's. He has made the cover of Modern Drummer magazine on multiple occasions, which is a sure sign he was among the very elite of his time as a percussionist, and as a drummer I very much looked up to when I was learning to play as a teenager.

@JoeBlythe 3 жыл бұрын
