 TRAVEL
“Travel teaches you a lot about the diversity of the world. When musicians talk
about politics we’re often given shit for it’ – and I understand that – but we
do get to travel, which gives us an insight into other cultures. There are
tonnes of places I’ve yet to visit - China, South East China, South America.
Hopefully I can go beyond the places I visited with System. Getting to see
somewhere like Moscow would be great.”
FAMILY
“Being Armenian is like being Italian – family is everything. It’s where you
come from and without knowing where you come from you’re never going to know
where the fuck you’re going. When I’m back home I make a point of going to visit
my parents every Sunday at the very least. The bonds between family members are
the bonds we need to built between each other, in order to make this world a
better place.” |

 System
Of A Down bassist Shavo Odadjian is not only spearheading the new
internet musicians community urSESSION, he's also trying to put the finishing
touches on the first album by his new band, Achozen.
The group features RZA from the Wu-Tang Clan, and Odadjian said it's a dream
come true.
"Me and RZA working together making music? That's fun. I'll do that for free.
It's not even time. I'll stay up all night and do a couple of shots and work.
That's RZA. My friend and my bandmate is my idol and vice versa, and that's a
trip. If anyone should know how RZA...what he's done to music. What he's done to
hip-hop. What a change he's made to lyrics, and to beats and to hip-hop itself.
But to have that guy respect me as much as I respect him, to do a band together
and to know that we're there mentally boom (makes connection gesture). |

Tankian works outside the System

 System
of a Down's Serj Tankian is one of modern metal's most popular
singers. He's fond of wry political laments howled over demented guitar
thrash tempered with Armenian folk. He is also a gentle protector of
insects.
When an errant moth flew into the living room of his Calabasas home while
Tankian served rosewater tea, he rushed to cup his hands around it and set
it free out the back door. It was a sweet gesture from a vocalist whose most
well-known chorus lyric is "I don't think you trust in my self-righteous
suicide." But it gave a hint of where Tankian's head is at as he prepares to
release "Elect the Dead," his debut solo album, due Oct. 23. |
