About

Formed in California in the mid-'90s, System of a Down delivers a thrilling mix of thrash metal, sharp lyrics and unusual melodies. The music of System of a Down, which is full of powerful guitar work and vicious screams, has been compared to Korn and other performers of heavy, genre-defying rock. A band that is as playful as it is serious, System of a Down offers intelligent rock with a rebellious spirit.

    Such a great lineup; it can't be beat! The music side of things were great, but the logistical side such as the merch line were not it. It took 2 hours to get through the line. I'm glad I got merch, but I didn't know/intened to sacrifice seeing the bands I paid to see.

  • Deftones and system of down

    I travel from Texas to California gotta admit San Francisco was terrible city never coming back to cali I’m sorry very ugly place to visit but the concert it’s 9/10 it would’ve been more then a ten if chino let serj played mein at the concert cause i honestly thought they were gonna colab together but they didn’t they just sing their own part I love the concert but the expectations I wanted didn’t happen so that’s why it’s a 9/10 no just cause of the city of San Francisco but they didn’t do the colab that we wanted to see from them but probably in a different universe would’ve happen

  • Transcendent

    by Mer on 11/4/24Golden Gate Park - San FranciscoRating: 5 out of 5

    Attending System of a Down in San Francisco was nothing short of a pilgrimage. Traveling thousands of miles from Scotland, I had built up huge anticipation, yet nothing could have prepared me for the sheer magnitude of what unfolded on that stage. What I experienced was transcendent, a profound journey into sound and emotion that defied words, an encounter that stirred my soul and etched itself permanently onto my spirit. The intensity of this concert went beyond music—it was a monumental celebration of raw expression, a cathartic release of energy, fury, and beauty that I’ll carry with me forever. From the very first chord, an electric charge filled the air, palpable and alive, binding us together as one massive, beating heart. I felt the tremor of each note reverberate through my bones. It was a testament to the band’s ability to fuse raw energy with a level of artistry that is rarely encountered, an experience that felt both utterly timeless and intensely present. Each song was like a vessel, carrying the weight of years and ideals, dreams and despairs. The set was a masterwork of musicianship and emotional gravitas, where every lyric, every strum, and every percussive beat hit with the force of an anthem. Serj Tankian’s voice is a force of nature, ranging from haunting to apocalyptic. He doesn’t just sing; he invokes. His vocals tore through Golden Gate Park, at times like a whisper from the depths of humanity’s soul, at others like a call to arms. It was visceral and haunting, and as his voice soared, it felt as if he were channeling something far beyond the ordinary—a collective scream, a cry for change, and an echo of our shared human experience. I found myself moved to tears, overwhelmed by the poignancy of lyrics that struck at the core of life’s harshest truths. To hear these messages in the heart of San Francisco, a place steeped in its own legacy of resistance and spirit, felt nothing short of historic. And then there was the band. Shavo Odadjian’s bass lines seemed to pulse with life, a thunderous undercurrent that grounded every song in visceral power. Daron Malakian’s guitar work was nothing short of electrifying, unleashing riffs that were somehow both brutal and beautiful. His energy was infectious; watching him was like witnessing an artist entirely consumed by his creation. And John Dolmayan on drums—absolute, unstoppable rhythm, his relentless precision a heartbeat that pulled us deeper and deeper into this world they’d created. Yet it wasn’t just the music that made this night unforgettable—it was the feeling of unity, the unspoken connection with everyone around me. I’ve attended many concerts, but this was different. This was communal. The crowd wasn’t simply listening; we were part of something far bigger than ourselves. People from all walks of life, from different backgrounds and continents, stood shoulder to shoulder, each of us drawn to this moment by our shared admiration, our common humanity, our yearning for something real. I looked around and saw people singing with closed eyes, hands in the air, faces streaked with emotion, strangers who became friends in a single, shared scream of joy and defiance. The setlist itself was a masterpiece, an emotional rollercoaster that left me breathless. Songs like “Chop Suey!” and “Aerials” brought the crowd to a fever pitch, an explosion of energy that was as fierce as it was freeing. “B.Y.O.B.” hit with unrestrained power, capturing the urgency and defiance that have always defined System of a Down. And in quieter moments, in songs like “Lost in Hollywood,” there was a bittersweet beauty that lingered, a sense of nostalgia mixed with something achingly poignant. Each song built upon the last, creating an ebb and flow that carried us all, relentless and unstoppable. By the end, I felt as though I’d journeyed through the depths of human emotion, experienced something cosmic, something sacred. Leaving the venue, I was dazed, speechless, my heart full and my voice hoarse. I was physically exhausted, yet my soul felt lighter. As I walked back into the San Francisco night, a surreal calm washed over me—the kind that only follows a truly transformative experience. System of a Down gave us a gift that night, an unfiltered expression of passion, protest, and the undying human spirit. This concert will remain etched in my memory forever, a radiant moment in time where I felt truly alive, part of something that transcends words, beyond explanation, but forever felt. In every way, this concert was life-changing. Thank you, System of a Down. Thank you for the music, for the message, and for the memory.

  • More Than A Show!

    To see a SoaD concert is really more like communing with the band, and really sharing the whole of the experience with them. SoaD has an amazing way of making the crowd feel like they are part of the show. And while you can make that claim for many other shows, no one does it at the consistent high level that SoaD does. You don't leave seeing a show, you leave having an experience. Not many acts can say that.

    I traveled from SC to CA for this concert. SOAD & Deftones did not disappoint. I was amazed by the view I had from the crowd and how well I could hear the artists over the crowd.

  • Absolutely amazing!
