Warning -- This Episode of the Rock and Metal Profs contains graphic descriptions of genocide and violence -- It is not intended for children. In episode 38 of the Rock and Metal Profs, Matt and Court examine the history and philosophy of the Armenian-American band System of a Down. When SOAD burst on the metal scene in the late-nineties, few people realized just how influential they would be in terms of exposing fans to many important social issues and historical events. However, their greatest impact was introducing fans around the world to a little-known area of history, the Armenian Genocide. The Profs discuss the Armenian Genocide, as well as the important role that SOAD played in convincing the U.S. government to acknowledge that the Armenian Genocide took place, and that the nation of Turkey bears responsibility. SOAD is much more than simply an activist band, however. They are talented artists who never seemed to care about fame, accolades or commercial success. They were massively successful nonetheless, performing their unique and eclectic style of music that will never be duplicated. SOAD is a serious band that never avoided controversial and difficult topics, and likewise, we'll do the same in this episode of the Rock and Metal Profs.
