System Of A Down – System Of A Down
Year/Genre: 1998 Alternative Metal
Matrix #: 19075865581
Condition: New, Re‑sleeved
Description:
Hailing from Los Angeles through Armenian‑American roots, System of a Down broke onto the scene blending searing metal riffs with Middle Eastern folk influences and politically charged lyrics. Originally released in 1998, their self‑titled debut captures socio‑political frustration with tracks like “Sugar” and “P.L.U.C.K.” that became anthems. Pressed officially on vinyl for the first time in 2018, this edition includes a printed inner sleeve with lyrics and reproduces the raw energy of their breakthrough sound. It marks a pivotal moment when a diaspora‑influenced band reshaped metal’s boundaries—as culturally significant today as it was then.
