Episode 144: System of a Down

This week we're discussing every album by System of a Down. If you've been alive for the past 20 years, you can stop reading this. If you haven't, then System of a Down was basically one of the last (maybe even THE last) massive, mainstream rock band in America. A fact that is doubly impressive when you hear how intricate and absolutely insane some of this music is. Extremely talented, unique, and wild. Not for everyone, but an important band.

Closing track: "Question!" from Mezmerize (2005)
