Released on November 26, 2002, Steal This Album! is the third studio album of System of a Down. It reached #15 on the Billboard Top 200. The name “Steal This Album” was a nod to beating the establishment, and was derived from Abbie Hoffman’s counterculture textbook, Steal This Book. Apart from alluding to the fans who downloaded unreleased demo songs leaked online a year prior to the album’s release, the title also refers to recurring motifs throughout the album’s tracks related to “Fuck[ing] the System.” However, the band has said that they don’t actually mind people downloading their music online, as long as it doesn’t happen before the official release.
