System of a Down

It was truly a shame to witness their downward spiral towards catchy-casual-easy. With their first album, they really amazed everyone, refreshing the already at-risk nu-metal scene and offering a very personal, fierce genre that at times even flowed into a very personal and intriguing reinterpretation of the ethnic. If they had stayed on that line, I would probably still be listening to them. Unfortunately, that wasn't the case. Even Toxicity was an empty album.
