Bounce - System of a Down - MP3 instrumental karaoke

"Bounce" is a song by the Armenian-American rock band System of a Down. It is the seventh track on the band's second studio album, Toxicity, which was released on September 4, 2001. The song was written by the band members Serj Tankian, Daron Malakian, and Shavo Odadjian, and produced by the band with Rick Rubin. With a running time of 1:54, "Bounce" exemplifies System of a Down's signature blend of heavy metal, punk, and elements of Eastern music, showcased through aggressive guitar riffs and rhythmic intricacy. Lyrically speaking, "Bounce" is eccentric and playful, depicting a sexual encounter between a man and several women through numerous risqué metaphors. Stylistically, the song is a perfect counterpoint to the rest of the tracks in the album, which tackle more serious subjects such as drug addiction and mass incarceration. Despite not having been released as a proper single, "Bounce" eventually became a staple of the band's live shows due to its intense energy. Toxicity, in turn, peaked at Number 1 on the US Billboard 200 and was certified multi-platinum.
