One reason might be licensing and rights issues.

Another reason could be a change in digital distribution strategy.

System of a Down's ‘Toxicity' album removed from Spotify without warning
System of a Down's 2001 album Toxicity has suddenly disappeared from Spotify, leaving fans searching for answers. The removal was first reported by users across social media platforms who noticed the full album was no longer accessible, with most tracks completely missing from the streaming service. A check of the platform confirms the absence. While three of the band's best-known tracks—'Chop Suey!,' 'Toxicity,' and 'Aerials'—remain available, they are now listed under compilation albums such as Rock Classico and Nice 2000s, with the original Toxicity album artwork no longer appearing. Other tracks from the album have either vanished or appear only in live formats or as cover versions by other artists. No official explanation has been provided. The band is currently on tour in South America and has not addressed the issue publicly. According to a message shared by a fan on Reddit, a System of a Down fan page on Instagram suggested that both the band and their label, Sony, are aware of the situation and are working on a resolution. Released in 2001, Toxicity is one of the defining albums of the nu-metal era and remains a cornerstone of the genre. Its sudden removal from a major streaming platform has raised questions about licensing, rights management, or possible platform-specific disputes.
