In 1996, another demo tape was released with the songs: Soil, and two songs that were not on the first album, "Honey" and "Temper". In 1995, they made their first demo tape, and had the songs: "Suite-Pee", "Sugar", "Dam", and "P.L.U.C.K.(Politically Lying Unholy Cowardly Killers)". Serj, Daron, and Shavo, went to the same school, Alex Pilibos School for Armenian Americans in Los Angeles, when they were young. He left the band and the drummer from the band, "Friik", John Dolmayan, joined the band.
