The Sound Of 1998 System Of A Down
Press
The Deal: angry LA-based noise merchants, holly tipped by �those in the know� as one of America�s brightest new band. Falling somewhere between Rage Against The Machine and Coal Chamber, they churn out the kind of ugly racket that first made people get all hot and bothered about Korn. They actually cite their influences as everything from �Mid-Eastern folk to jazz to death metal�. Which is nice.
The Line-up: Daron Malakian (guitar), Serj Tankian (vocals), John Dolmayan (drums), Shavo Odadjian (bass). Form three years ago.
The Vibe: Early days yet, but the buzz on the band is colossal. After a whopping bidding war, the band have just recently signed to Columbia.
Out Now: Not a sausage. We�ve heard their Demos, though, and they�re enough for us to start dribbling on them right here. Obviously.
Out Next: Their first LP is currently being recorded, with legendary Slayer producer Rick Rubin at the helm
