Fans have been left fuming after they found that System of the Down's 2001 album Toxicity is no longer on Spotify.
It has completely disappeared from the music streaming site, and no reason has been given, leaving their followers scratching their heads.
The album's top three songs - Chop Suey!, Toxicity, and Aerials, - are still available, but the Toxicity album artwork is not displaying next to them.
Instead the trio of hits are showing under the compilation album Rock Classico.
The rest of the songs from the famous album aren't on Spotify at all.
Taking to Reddit to discuss, one fan said: "Yeah I don't know what's happening but it's weird!"
While another added: "Where is the album gone? I need it back!"
This one added: "I can't live without it! It's like oxygen for me!"
ROCKING ON
System of the Down were formed in California in 1994.
Since 1997, the band has consisted of founding members Serj Tankian (lead vocals, keyboards), Daron Malakian (guitar, vocals), and Shavo Odadjian (bass, backing vocals).

Their song B.Y.O.B. won a Grammy Award for Best Hard Rock Performance in 2006.
The band went on a hiatus in 2006 but, much to their fans' delight, they reunited in 2010
Musing over the band's ongoing appeal, lead singer Tankian told The Sun last year: "I think it's a combination of our songwriting.
"I think it's a combination of the fact that no matter how dead serious we might be in one song, the next song could be a hilarious, funny song, or even within the same song.
"There's many moments of jest and we're laughing at ourselves because life is too short.
"I think it makes us very unique and different in how we present our music and who we are. People relate to it, I guess. I don't know. You've got to ask them."
