Chop Suey is a 2001 single by American metal band System of a Down, taken from their album Toxicity, and it became one of the band's most widely recognised songs. Its abrupt shifts between quiet verses and explosive choruses made short excerpts especially useful online, where creators lift the opening seconds for reaction videos, edits and soundboards. The clip remains popular because it is instantly recognisable even at under two seconds, carrying the song's chaotic energy without needing any context.
