    An Aerial is an acrobatic move. While watching something mesmerizing, our minds lose all of our built up biases and filters, which usually keep us small minded in our day to day life.
    He is basically saying, lose your small minded thinking. With an open mind, you'll free your life..

      @@justdave9610 That is the definition when it is used as an adjective, but adjectives alone can't be used as a sentence's subject. With the letter "s" used at the end of the word making it plural, Aerial(Aerials), it can only take the definition of its noun form. Adjectives do not have singular or plural forms and never get an "s" at the end.
      It is a preposition of location(stating something is somewhere). "Aerials" is a plural noun and the subject of the sentence. "In" is the preposition(in this case, expressing relation to the place) and "the sky" is the place. Circus Acrobats are performing "aerials in the sky/so up high..."
      For even more context, the beginning of the video shows a circus tent, which is a place where acrobats perform.

    Your question about the music, aparently Malakian was asked in a Variety interview about the instruments used. "There is a mandolin, there was some banjo and there was an actual sitar on “Aerials.” I had never played one before so I kind of winged it." -Malakian

      My friend did that. Lol. He's such a bro, but he's also an unexpected musical prodigy. 😆 threw me off.
      I knew he was gifted, but years ago i finally understood when he unpacked the fresh sitar he'd just gotten and had never played before, and plucked out something badass in 30 seconds.
      I've heard him play music for years now. Has his own thing going. It still baffles me, though. Lol

      If you look at the album credits it shows that he is playing the sitar on most of this album. It gives the sound more of an eastern, or more ethnic feel. Along with the vocals you definitely hear the Armenian influence mixed with the western rock , and metal infusion. When they debut, they literally sounded like no one else.

    That line, "Always want to play, but you never want to lose," strikes me as a reminder that every life ends in death, but not in a bad way? Some people refuse to really accept that, they want to live but they never want to die, and instead of appreciating the time they have they live their lives in fear of losing it
    It's a pretty beautiful line

    to think Metal is so misunderstood, but when someone comes in with an open mind, they find themselves enthralled, enamored, and wanting more. with so many sub-genres and styles, Metal has something for everybody, they need only to seek it out.

    Love your take on this!!! A lot of SOAD’s music is rooted in existential/religious themes. I’m sure other commenters have pointed out the bands Armenian heritage. That heritage plays a massive role in their music. Both sonically and thematically. Great band.
    Keep ‘em coming!

    So many good ones from SOAD to dive into. I always recommend P.L.U.C.K or Holy Mountains, as the message of those songs are a big part of who System is and what they've tried to bring recognition to over the years (the Armenian Genocide).

    • @OnyxANZ
      @OnyxANZ ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Holy Mountains needs far far more people reacting to it. SOAD fans know of it as a masterpiece, while nobody else knows it exists, it's sad. I guess in a way.. it's poetic and represents the contents of the song..

Someone in the comments already recommended avenged sevenfold, which I second. A good start off song for them would be “after life.” Whatever you do, wait until you’re familiar with him before you do “a little piece of heaven,” no matter what anyone else says.

    "We are the ones that want to choose, always want to play but you never want to lose"
    I think that's a reference of not accepting death as a part of life. We always want to have fun and have great moments in the life, but at the same time trying our best to avoid death even tho it is part of life too. Losing is a part of game, someone has to lose for you to win. Such as the cycle of life.

Apparently i've never heard them after learning English, lol. As a teenager i just liked how they sound. This particular song brought me back to the time when i had no PC or any gaming console, but was very much into gaming. I was so much into it in fact, that i've not only endlessly annoyed anybody with gaming system with my constant visits to them with the intention to just sit at their place and play games for hours, but i also spent nights watching that weird TV channel that was rolling gamplay montages all night. One of the friquently played montages was cs 1.6 or css gameplay with this song played over it.
    P.S. sorry my English, and sorry for a bit of a blog i got here😁. Just a strange memory that hit me in the face.

    I believe the instrument that you hear at the end is a sitar, Indian/Central Asian origins, it’s like a guitar but also very different with the shape, amount of strings, the notes that those strings play and also that distinct sound of airy, legato notes. It’s a very unique, difficult but also interesting instrument, George Harrison of the Beatles would actually play some of it on some songs like “Love you too and Long, Long, Long.” Hope this helped!

    Unveiling the Symbolism of “Aerials” by System of a Down ...
    The term “aerials” can be seen as a metaphor for the limitless sky and the boundless possibilities it represents. In this context, the sky becomes a symbol of freedom, dreams, and the pursuit of something greater than oneself.

    This takes me back to 2000-2001 being in middle school. As far as Nu Metal bands they came out swinging. Everyone knew who they were then. Their sounds was like nothing before. Just like Linkin park at that time....Korn & Limp Bizkit where big then too.
    Anyways 9/11 fucked up a lot for that band... as the lead singer is middle eastern. They got so much hate mail during that time & death threats. Super sad. Anyways that's a band that had so much talent/ a unique sound and changed the rock game at that time.

    Hi Knox
    I would like to make a sugestion for another Metal Monday. The Most lyrical and metaphorical band that i know is definitly Nightwish. To getting to know them you should check out "Ghost Love Score" from 2013 at Wacken

    SOAD can make songs like Aerials, with so much depth and harmony- and then hit you in the face with songs like Vicinity of Obscenity (in which at least half the lyrics are BANANA BANANA BANANA BANANA TERRACOTTA BANANA TERRACOTTA TERRACOTTA PIE) and ☆no one☆ is complaining because they both sound great😂
    It's still one of my favorite band!
    Another band that is worth checking out, especially if you like SOAD, is Avatar (swedish metal band) - A Secret Door, Smells Like A Freakshow, Hail the Apocalypse are great starters (some are heavy though, but nothing you couldn't handle..I think)
    They're also awesome live (Regret//House of eternal hunt-live from Avatar ages & Let it Burn are the first that popped in my mind)
    Enjoy :)

    forest from system of a down is my favorite, i think it would be a really good song for you to react to.

    That instrument at the end was a Sitar.

    Much agreed with Avenged Sevenfold! Knox, you did it again, thank you man. "Solway Firth" by Slipknot, no explanation needed, just check it out and you'll see

  • @randomdudez00
    @randomdudez00 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Knox I beg you react to Avenged Sevenfold some of the best most underrated music out there. Afterlife, Nightmare, The Wicked End and Save Me are all top tier songs

  • @CaptainTenille

    Has nobody suggested Rage Against the Machine yet? Rap meets metal with one of the most innovative guitarists and lyrics to really sink your teeth into. Their entire discography is fire, 'Know Your Enemy' would be my launching point \m/

  • @MKDumas1981
    @MKDumas1981 ปีที่แล้ว

    I believe that's a sitar that you hear. Basically, a Middle Eastern guitar. Think of the intro from Metallica's "Wherever I May Roam".

    Hey Knox, the lead singer did study opera, that's where you are hearing the warbling sounds

    • @TigerTiger96319
      @TigerTiger96319 ปีที่แล้ว

      That's not from Opera. It's from his origin. He is from Armenia. In Opera that is not a common way to sing.
