This is one of my favourite bands!With this band's compositions I started listening to metal and other similar genres.
About this band:

The current line-up of the band includes :

The former members include :
Andy Khachaturian - Drums (1995 - 1997)
The band was formed by the former members of, now disbanded, Soil; Serj and Daron. The name was thought of as 'Victims Of The Down', which was inspired by the title of one of Daron's poems. But, Shavo, then manager of the band, recommended changing the 'Victims' by "System'. Afterwards, Shavo also joined in as their bassist.
SOAD, as their also known as, have had three of their studio albums attain the peak position of #1 in the U.S. Billboard, namely Toxicity, Mezmerize and Hypnotize. And all of their albums have got the platinum status with Toxicity getting a three times platinum status! Their discography is as follows:
