Bios of the band

Daron Malakian ( Guitarist and vocalist)

 He was born the 18 of july of 1975,in Glendale, California and he has armenian descendence, he is the only one of the band who was born in U.S. When he was a child he wanted to play the drums but his parents didnt let him and instead they bought him an electric guitar, and he got good and started to  write songs. Then he met Serj,Shavo and John, and he made the band System of a down. The band was named like this because of a poem that Daron wrote that was called Victims of a Down. Here´s the poem:

"As the century nears its formidable end, our global 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 quarrelling 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."
