Band Oakland United States Active 1996–2004 US hard rock band
Systematic formed in 1996 in Oakland, United States and was active until 2004. Systematic has 2 chart appearances on 1 radio countdown from 1 station on RockLists, spanning 2001. The most successful song on radio countdowns is “Beginning of the End”, which appears on 1 list with a best position of #49.

Systematic came out of Oakland in 1996 and caught the ear of Lars Ulrich, becoming one of the first bands signed to the Metallica drummer's label, The Music Company, through Elektra Records. With Tim Narducci singing and playing guitar, Adam Ruppel on second guitar and Paul Bostaph behind the drums, they played hard rock with an alternative metal crunch: heavy, grinding riffs, big, brooding choruses and a rhythm section that hit like a pile driver.
Somewhere in Between, from 2001, carried the moody lurch of "Beginning of the End" and the heavy ache of "Deep Colors Bleed" showing a band that knew how to make weight sound melancholy. They made two studio albums in all before breaking up in 2004.
