System of a Down History
You can count on System, one of rock’s most daring
and innovative bands, to do things in its own way, and
with a level of commitment that’ll knock the wind right
out of you. “This band’s what Public Enemy once was
and what Rage Against the Machine never quite
managed to be: the potent trifecta of credibility,
sincerity and real danger,” pronounced Esquire on
naming them “Best Agitators” in the magazine’s 2005
Esky Music Awards. If you were looking for the
ultimate one-sentence summation of this
extraordinary band, that’s pretty good. Malakian has
his own take. “We’re really an honest band—that’s
why people are listening to us,” he asserts. “We’re
not bull****ting ourselves and we’re not bull****ting
them.” Fate chose this group of Armenian Americans,
two of whom were born in Lebanon, one in Armenia
and another in Hollywood, as unknowing prophets.
Toxicity, System’s second album, appeared on Sept.
4, 2001 and was at the top of the charts on Sept. 12,
while America and the world were paralyzed with
grief, shock and fear.

Perhaps because the music of Toxicity was so uncompromising and yet so full of humanity at
its extremes, it provided a suitably harrowing soundtrack for that unimaginable moment,
striking a deep nerve. The album generated four Top 10 singles, including the #1 “Aerials,”
and went on to sell 6 million copies, establishing System not as some prefab mainstream
commercial entity but rather as an urgent voice in the uncharted wilderness that was
heard—and believed—by a great many human beings.
Just over a year later, the band offered up Steal This Album!, made up of tracks that had been
started during the Toxicity sessions but didn’t fit that album’s dedicated confrontational vibe
tracks that put a greater emphasis on melody and the two-part harmonies of Malakian and
Tankian. With Steal!, System, which up to that point had pitched nothing but fastballs (although
some were of the split-finger variety), showed that it had a command of all kinds of stuff, and
potent stuff at that. Thus, Mezmerize /Hypnotize is both the long-awaited follow-up to Toxicity in
big-picture terms and a natural progression from Steal This Album! in a musical sense.

Malakian not only produced the band’s magnum opus with Rick Rubin, as he did with Toxicity and Steal This Album!, but also increased his already considerable song, arrangement and vocal contributions, stepping forward both as a lead vocalist and as one half of System’s distinctive harmonies. Malakian’s increased foreground presence poses no problems for Tankian. “It’s not hard for me because we’ve been working together for over 10 years,” Serj points out. “I don’t necessarily encompass his words when I sing them—I approach them from my perspective and what they make me feel.” This is the same sort of statement one might expect to hear from Mick Jagger in describing his relationship with Keith Richards, or Robert Plant on Jimmy Page.

The new album’s character is encapsulated by the jaw-dropping first single, “B.Y.O.B.,” with its
myriad shifts in tempo, tone and viewpoint. The track starts out with System’s signature teeth-
baring ferocity, as Tankian howls like an opera singer on steroids about a world gone mad
while his cohorts impersonate the RATATAT of an AK47. Then, just as abruptly, a second
protagonist comes into the frame, this one a carefree dude cruising eastward on the San
Bernardino Freeway en route to a party in the desert, the scene delivered via a delectable
minor-key pop hook. |
