Being a long time fan of System, I was rather sad to see them go on hiatus. Serj Tankian's debut solo album was fanastic and Scars On Broadway were also rather amazing but I would still like to see them reunite in the near future. Considering that Daron has now left scars, do you think that there may be a possibility of system reuniting for 2010?

I sincerely hope not. Mediocre to start with and reunions are worse.

That band was just plain horrible. No offense, but it was just a bunch of off tune shouting and crap that seemed to appeal to disgruntled teens.

I would pass on that...

Their songs don't make any sense and some of them are overloaded with cussing.

The logic applies to the thread as well. He asked opinions. I find it's best not to ask if you can't accept them.

Serj Tankian was the good one. I say he should form a band with the remnants of Rage Against the Machine (given they don't get back together). Now THAT would be worth listening to.

That won't work for all bands, not everyone is in it for the money. Not sure about SOAD.

After they released their last album an interviewer asked Mike Portnoy of Dream Theater if it sold better or worse than their past albums he said that he hasn't looked at sales figures for years and he didn't care. I would think many big bands reach the point where, if they are responsible enough with their money, they could make music for the rest of their lives regardless if they sell a copy or not.

I don't think the record label would like that too much.

I think there's a union, you should probably discuss it there, since there are a lot of people on OT who want to make their opinions known, but that's just human nature.

Barenaked Ladies started their own label, and they're not exactly the richest band around.

I think it's dull when a lot of the posters write something like "they're awful", or " they're a mediocre band", I mean, if you dislike them, at least give a few reasons why that band sucks, now that would be more interesting.

I'd love to see them come back. System Of A Down is one of my favorites for sure.:twisted: But I doubt it will happen, it's hard to get a group back together at the same level they started.
