Как вам эта группа?


Я слышала всего несколько песен. Мне понравилось. А вообще есть диск с парой альбомов, но все никак не соберусь послушать. Хочу включить, а душа Linkin Park просит... Я законченная Паркоманка...

Их гитарист, Дарон, по-моему, написал поэму A VIctim of a down/ Вот они и поменяли Victim на System. А вообще вот смысл их названия(был на обороте первого альбома):
As the century nears its formidable end, our gobal experience of universal proportions, predicted by many greats, will arrive at our solar system, to our system of a down. Authoritarian oppression, family abuse, depression caused by conformity, and economic devastation will be neutralized by technological terrorism in times of complete chaos. Control will never again be gained for toleration will become extinct. A husband quarreling with his wife will not think twice or regret his spent bullet. Hungry children will not spare the grocer. Remorse in all forms will be removed from human thoughts and actions. Freedom will only be available through revolution or death. This system of a down is unavoidable as life on this planet becomes unnecessary.
The hand has five fingers, capable and powerful, with the ability to destroy as well as create. We have the power to stop and reverse the tides of time by making our awareness of abuse known to the powers of industry and their uncouth political arms. Only by raising the awareness and promoting personal peace within today's self-defeatist society, can we allow the planet a chance to avoid self-destruction!

OPEN YOUR EYES, OPEN YOUR MOUTHS,
CLOSE YOUR HANDS AND MAKE A FIST.
С переводом еще не закончила=)
А вот еще и комметарий(тут простенько, без перевода даю):
The name for SOAD was inspired by the title of a poem by Daron - Victims Of The Down. This was changed to System Of A Down for a number of reasons; Shavo objected to 'Victims', due to its 'narrow, personal connotations'. System was more vague, and it is intentional that the name is hard to interpret
