System of a Down - Chop Suey!.mp3

"Chop Suey!" is the first single from Armenian-American alternative metal band System of a Down's second album Toxicity. The single was released in August 2001 and earned the band its first Grammy nomination in 2002 for Best Metal Performance. The song's working title was "Suicide"; the band members claim the change was not caused by pressure from their record company. Certain pressings of the album include an intro to the track where the comment "We're rolling 'Suicide'" can still be heard faintly before the guitar starts. The song is included as a playable track in the music video games Rock Band 2, Rock Revolution, Rock Band Unplugged and Guitar Hero Live in addition to appearing in the Shavo Odadjian-directed TV spot and launch trailer for Mortal Kombat X. Loudwire included the song in its list of The Best Hard Rock Songs Of The 21st Century, where it was ranked at #1.[4] "Chop Suey!" is often seen as the band's signature song.
