Trivia

Interesting facts about Kill Rock 'n Roll. By Songfacts.

On the surface, this song is about rock stars and how many of them died because of drugs ("Eat all the grass that you want"). The band tells a different story: System Of A Down guitarist Daron Malakian wrote it one night after he accidentally ran over a rabbit. He pulled over the car and named the dead rabbit Rock N' Roll. He felt so bad that he was writing about how the rabbit didn't deserve his fate, so the line "eat all the grass" is referring to the rabbit eating the grass, not rock stars doing drugs.


System Of A Down deemed this song too catchy to release as a single, which makes sense only in their universe. "I'd rather kinda push people's brains," Daron Malakian told MTV. "I'd hate being known as the band that is recognized for that song."


Daron Malakian wrote this song and shares lead vocals on the song with their frontman, Serj Tankian. Malakian also produced it with their label boss, Rick Rubin.
