System of a Down

System of a Down, the acclaimed Armenian-American alternative metal group, has solidified its place as a powerhouse in live music since its formation in 1995. Renowned for their experimental approach and razor-sharp social commentary, their genre-defining sound bridges alternative metal and rock. Their most recent release, the 2020 single "Protect the Land / Genocidal Humanoidz," underscores their ongoing creative vitality and commitment to powerful themes.

The band's concert calendar has seen them headline major festivals, including a standout performance at Sick New World in October 2025 at Texas Motor Speedway, Fort Worth, where they topped a bill that featured acts such as Deftones and Slayer. System of a Down’s distinctive energy also makes them a coveted support act; in May 2025, they played in Hull at Service Station, supporting Thin Lizzy, and in December 2025, they appeared at the Exchange in Bristol as part of the Punk Rock Stars in Their Eyes show, supporting a diverse roster headlined by ABBA. Looking ahead to July 2026, System of a Down will headline Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London, with Queens of the Stone Age and Acid Bath joining the event.
