System of a Down - "Toxicity" (Live Armenia 2015)

[@natejames6315]

This was a free concert by the way, for their people.

[@fedora997]

Yeah it was, unfortunately I missed it

I still think this little drum rhythm is the most recognizable in any song ever.

[@cameronchandler7606]

I’ve noticed 12/8 is popular with bands like soad, pantera, tool, etc. Pneuma by Tool has a 33/14 time signature; it’s tough to keep up with but it’s got a rhythm you won’t hear anywhere else

[@malachi1807]

This and lamb of God "LAID TO REST"

[@norweedrecords]

he never lost his voice, he's just getting older... when "Toxicity" came out, Serj was 34 and he was 48 on this show, it makes a difference.

[@mikeandike2021]

His voice still sounds amazing but back then he used his lower and mid range flase cord improperly so he doesn't use distortion anymore

[@norweedrecords]

​@@mikeandike2021 yeah, the usage of false cords did a lot of damage just so he could sound incredibly superhuman. i really enjoy the old records, the self-titled and toxicity albums, but it also makes me sad to think he'll never sound like this again, either from the damage, or just his will NOT to lose his voice

[@BxIowaIrelandSwAg]

I’m saying bro. If this was the product that I saw live I would absolutely stoked

[@oldthug7624]

Its a miracle he still sounds so good at his age. Many artists really lose their voice as they age, he barely sounds any different.
