This amazing vintage tee is for the iconic nu metal band, System of a Down and it features a graphic of two women with their arms wrapped suggestively around each other, sporting rubber masks of Saddam Hussein and George W. Bush. This image was meant to convey the band's thoughts on the Iraq War, a topic which they also touched on in their music, particularly in the song "Boom!" off their record Steal This Album!. The song criticizes globalization and government spending on armaments, and its music video was directed by the prominent political filmmaker, Michael Moore. Bush and Hussein also appear in the video, alongside Tony Blair and Bin Laden, as cartoon references to the four horsemen of the apocalypse.

System of a Down emerged on the music scene in the mid 90s, and all members of the band are of Armenian descent. The group has always remained vocal about their political beliefs, and in 2005, they released another song addressing their opposition of the Iraq War, titled "B.Y.O.B." This song, which was featured on their album Mezmerize, won the band a Grammy for Best Hard Rock Performance.
