ER Percussion Performs System of a Down “Toxic Questions” Medley

Staying with the theme of extremely talented young people, the ETP Award for Saturday, September 6th goes to ER Percussion, and their rendition of “Toxic Questions,” a Medley of songs by “Nu Metal” band System of a Down. My high school marching band never sounded like this (but how I wish they had)!

I have not been able to find any contact information for ER Percussion on the Internet, so if anyone knows how to reach them with news of this Award, please drop me aline at extremelytalentedpeople@yahoo.com – thanks!

If you are not familiar with System of a Down, they, too, are a group of tremendously talented folks, with a downright operatic punk metal sound that is wholly unique. Think love child spawn of Jello Biafra’s vintage Dead Kennedys crossed with Andrew Loyd Webber (especially in his collaboration days with Tim Rice, ala Jesus Christ Superstar). Since they are already well known, I can’t in good conscience bestow an ETP Award on them, but if you find the description above compelling, and would like to check out the source materials that so inspired our winners, ER Percussion, here are the tracks that were folded into the medley.
