SYSTEM OF A DOWN - Toxicity - Drum Cover (2020)

Hi! This is RockerGirl and I’m performing Toxicity! Toxicity is the second studio album by American heavy metal band System of a Down, released on September 4, 2001. Featuring the heaviness and aggression of their 1998 eponymous debut, it features more melody, harmonies, and singing than the band’s aforementioned album. Categorized primarily as alternative metal and nu metal, Toxicity features elements of multiple genres including folk, progressive rock, jazz, Armenian music, and Balkan music, including prominent use of instruments such as the sitar, banjo, keyboards, and piano. I especially excited to perform this song because of the ethnic influence. My ethnic background is from Macedonia and I have grown up listening to these rhythms and styles and it see it incorporated in metal music is truly amazing! Producers Rick Rubin, Daron Malakian and Serj Tankian System of a Down Band Members: Serj Tankian – vocals, keyboards, string arrangements Daron Malakian – guitars, sitar, vocals Shavo Odadjia
