Their name was inspired by a poem written by band member Daron Malakian entitled “Victims of a Down” (commonly mistaken for what is written on the back of their first album). Fellow band member Serj Tankian felt that “System” was a much stronger word.
All four members are of Armenian ethnicity, grandsons of the Armenian Genocide survivors, and are widely known for their outspoken social and political views found in many of their songs. System of a Down is a part of the Axis of Justice, a non-profit organization formed by Tankian and Tom Morello that is dedicated to bringing together musicians, music fans and grassroots political organizations to fight for social justice.
