| | System of a Down - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Even though various members of System of a Down have insisted that the hiatus is NOT a break up, at the kick off of Ozzfest '06, on June 29, the band appeared to be on the verge of a break up. |
 | | System of a Down’s main influence is mostly from early alternative rock bands, as well as from heavy metal, punk rock, jazz, fusion, Armenian folk music (Harout, Paul, Armik) classic rock, blues and industrial genres. |
 | | All four of the band members are of Armenian ancestry, and they have pursued recognition of the Armenian Genocide by the U.S. and Turkish governments through both music and political action. |
