Dominator’s Top 50 of 2001The following is my look back at my Top 50 of 2001.
48. System of a Down: Chop Suey
Making No.17 in October last year, this was a great slice of American Indierock that had plenty of MTV2 airplay and went through several differentchanges in direction in the four or five minutes it ran for. Took a while toget used to but it was worth it.
The track was followed up by the excellent Toxicity (No.25, March 2002)and Aerials (No.34, July 2002).
