System of a Down rocker Serj Tankian has become a New Zealand
citizen, after falling in love with the country.
The Lebanon-born heavy-metaler
has been based in the U.S., but fell in love with New Zealand after traveling
there to relax after recording his new solo album - and he has stayed put.
He explains, "After recording the album I withdrew and took off there for three
months, which I had to do to gain citizenship.
"I'm such a crazy workaholic that it was hard stepping away from my work in LA,
but it was great because it allowed me to reflect. It made me think, 'Wow man, I
have this amazing life.'"
Serj Tankian has set October 23rd as a date to release his solo album "Elect
The Dead". The first single "Unthinking Majority" will be digitally
released on August 7th followed by another single , 'Empty Walls',
to be released on October 15.

A new Kiwi on the block! Sweet! Glad to hear that he was finally able to get his citizenship. I know he'd been trying to acquire property there for some time now and was able to do that, as well. Congrats, Serj :D
