System of a Down celebrated their official release for their Album
"Mezmerize".
The signing party was made in Best Buy at Burbank, California where many fans
were waiting for their lovely band.
| Daron Malakian surprised the fans by his new hair
style, very short than before (as it was long to his shoulders) now its
barely covers his ears Our Special member Rain, was there and
managed to get her signed copy of the album:
"We waited from 2 all day and They started signing at 7pm and i got mine
signed at 9:30 when I got to see them. and I was green/yellow wristbands
so... and ALL of us got in... I even think the people that didn't have
wristbands behind us got in so... I get inside the door....and low and
behold the first thing I see is the back of
Serj's head... this ball of curls!!! and then I turn and I see System of
a Down and They were all so beautiful...standing right there in front of
me. Then they took my things and then they sent me up the perch"
"The first one was John and he smiled at me and he asked my
name and he signed it and dedicated it to me (RAIN!!!!!) and then next
was Shavo and he signed with his painted fingernails then
Daron...."
"Daron...what a character man. I got to him and set my booklet down and
he just stared at the black tablecloth with his wide stoned eyes and he
took the silver metallic pen and just marked the tablecloth by making
little dots on it for a few seconds and then he slammed his hand on my
booklet and slid it to him then he signed it faster than a hummingbird
second then then pushed it to me and was like 'Next' "
As said before, "Mezmerize" is Disc One of the 2-disc set
"Mezmerize/Hypnotize". Disc Two, "Hypnotize", is expected to be released
late this fall.
Earlier some reports talked about People inside Sony Music are looking
optimistically at 500.000 for SYSTEM OF A DOWN's hotly anticipated
(by fans and retailers) Whether it hits the half-million plateau or not,
the SOAD release is sure to keep rock alive and kicking in the
top reaches of the charts, while Toby Keith is poised to do the same for
country next week in what could be an intriguing culture clash.

SOADFans: Can’t Fight the System !
|
 |
| Posted by ZAk on Sunday, May 15, 2005 - 06:40 PM |
With their new double CD, Mesmerize/Hypnotize, Los Angeles rockers System of a Down take on politics, the environment, the war and, most aggressively, Tony Danza. It looks more like the set of Hellraiser than an estate on the outskirts of Los Angeles. The front-door knockers are carved stone skulls; a goblin with its eyes and mouth sewn shut dangles from the door handle; and on a marble table in the hallway, several more fleshless heads grin ominously. The dining room of this home, owned by System of a Down guitarist Daron Malakian, is even more macabre. Skulls are scattered across the top of a baby grand piano, and a life-size skeleton lounges on a leather couch. Or maybe it’s just one of those anorexic groupies we’ve heard about. It’s like an upscale Manson Mansion. After all, Charlie’s image is virtually everywhere—smirking from a poster next to a picture of John Lennon, peering from the face of an inflatable toy, even mingling into one of several canvases painted by Daron’s artist dad, Vartan Malakian, who created much of the artwork for Mezmerize/Hypnotize, the band’s new two-disc set. (Mezmerize hits stores May 17; Hypnotize will follow in the late fall.) |
