its Ben Myers, the author of several successful books, fiction based like "The book of Fuck" 2004 and several bands biographies like Muse and Green Day. He has also appeared on a number of TV and radio shows discussing music and writing. He has published a number of short stories and poems in small press publications. His latest book about System of a Down "Right Here in Hollywood" is about to be released in the U.S after great success in U.K and Europe.

SOADFans had the pleasure to talk with Ben about his book and his background with System of a Down and other things.

No lead in really! Recently I had the opportunity to ask a few questions of Cliff Campbell (guitars) for Fair to Midland and Erwin Khachikian (Vocals-Keyboards) for Slow Motion Reign.
Both bands are currently under the Serjical Strike record Label and both have had a chance to work with Serj Tankian, here is what they had to say.

Tina: Were you a fan of SOAD before you got signed by Serj?

Cliff: Of course! They are a great band. Any musician can learn a great deal from or merely enjoy listening to a band such as SOAD.

Erwin: Our guitar player Sam (previous member) was a fan. The rest of us appreciated their music as musicians and artists.

Turning to the beats of a different drum, John Dolmayan is undoubtedly one of the biggest names in music today. In the hearts and minds of System Of A Down fans, there is so much more to John than what average critics give him credit for.

John speaks to SOADFans.com, during the band’s hiatus. He talks about Torpedo Comics, other plans during his break from System Of A Down, and gives us a little more insight to his passion for drumming.
