@TheDragonKnight777 I'd sell my soul without blinking for a one frigging night!

[123enigma456]

a good look there, but he looks his best with his hair a bit bushier and with the goatee (like in the Aerials video)

[kokaly15]

i like his hair long better

[brake851]

Daron is so stupid and so hypocrite.He doesn't accept Serj Tankian is better than Scars on broadway.

[TheDragonKnight777]

@brake851 Daron is a nice guy in real life, but he just has a big ego >.>

[oreotron0411]

[FR3NC413]

Everyone saying that SOAD is breaking up...go on fucking wikipedia and search system of a down and it will say whats what about the band.

[kolerabii]

[KyleGreendayKing]

LONG LIVE SERJ AND BTW TOOL ROCK AS WELL

[kolerabii]

He shoud never left System Of a Down!

[Hjk797]

he didn't SOAD said they weren't serperating, just taking a break for a few years to do their own things.

[nodonian]

i saw his new band once a while ago

it was average

[halossis2]

Eh,Daron said they WOULD get together  again.

[fuducker2]

no he didn't

[leechowning]

@fuducker2 watch the announcement of hiatus in houston in 2005. And alot of people haven't noticed, But all of SOAD except serj played ad a benefit concert for bassist Chi of deftones, and since Scars is over, FCC is over, And serj's symphony is finished, expect to see SOAD here in the next 2 to 3 years on tour with a new album

[fuducker2]

@leechowning scars on broadway REALLY broke up??? well thats good cuz they're terrible. i didnt know FCC is over. isnt shavo still with Achozen? i want SOAD to get back more than anything.

[stewrty]

his last tour with them :| i think that was a hint..

[serjfan3]

Great guy. My personal idol. long live the system!

[kwagga2001]

[TaLiShAkUm09]

[XxoXBarbiedollXoxX]

[ultrasupertrunk90]

[McAshley100]

FCC stands for Flying Cunts of Chaus

[DRockPiano]

[antimindify]

chaos.........................­........sorry

[pkeetin]

please at least spell things correctly if your going to leave a retarded immature comment :)

[youkickedmuhdog]

:o can someone tell me what the FCC stands for? I know it's something like flying cunts or something but i forgot.

[Pizza300]

Flying Cunts of Choas

[youkickedmuhdog]

ahhhh thank you :]]

[Living666Zombie]

I think i heard its the FLYING CUNTS of CHAOS

[lovecedu]

CANT WAIT!!!

[tomasisonhere]

i want to hear the orchestra he is talking about. What is it called?

[HazMat728]

damn he said "perfecto" in spanish perfectly!

[aGothicStory]

I've actually been struck by how kind and gentle Serj Tankian seems. He's a powerful activist for justice but as a man he's a kind, beautiful spirit.

[Nickhatred893]

honesly his physical appearence struck me as an angry kind of vicious person when i first saw him performing, but when u get a good look into his eyes cant u see the kindness?

[SONIK198666]

and extremely inteligent

[palbo4]

what's FCC stand for?

[Mikeovhell]

Flying Cunts of Chaos

[comiclander]

serj is a great artist... I think hes doing so well... I think people is to selfish to let the artist make what they want...

[Anzaldua3012]

He looks like very cool guy. I love the end "perfecto" lol

[guitarzane97]

he should grow his hair long again, it looks cool long

[TheSmrdla]

lorenzo no Serj wrote all the songs,Daron did most of the music

[TheGuerillaTactics]

Daron did 90% of the lyrics.

[oldgeorgiaboy95]

EARTH NEEDS SOAD NOW MORE THAN EVER

[perikoguevara789]

YES!!!!

[crapmaster5000]

YES

[NickJonas6678]

he is doing great, scars isnt really doing awesome. COME BACK SOAD! (i love them all anyway ;) escepially serj and shavo

[crazzychrisp]

well...soad was the greatest. but over all this is where serj feels the most comfortable. because he is the one man band. me makes every song by himself. at a HOME STUDIO. using piano, drums, guitar, bass, and his undeniable voice. he is truely...a musician.

[MarcoDF91]

Serj is a REAL musician... I think he was the soul of S.O.A.D., daron gave a more metal-influence, but Serj was the creator and the most important member.

[LorenzoLaw989]

Daron wrote nearly all the songs so...

[deeewd]

he wrote most of the music,but not the lyrics,actually. well, he kinda took over those in mezm/hypn, and that's why i guess a) the records sounded simpler/poppier/flatter b) serj was unhappy.

[TheGuardianOfHalo]

i didnt like hypnotize and mezmerize as much as toxicity and system of a down (album)

my top five is:

1. Toxicity

2. System Of A Down

3. Steal This Album!

4. Mezmerize

5. Hypnotize

:)

[h3rsh3y94]

thats my ratings as well

[Haj366]

That is very true!

[isomikieee]

I'd like to see soad on next BDO

[angelsmellsdeath]

i dont care what he does i just wanna bang him

[dawnofthewolf2]

"I'll always be a member of System of a Down," he said. "That will never change. There's no rule that says you have to make records constantly, like clockwork, to continue being who you are. We want to live our lives, [because being in a band] really consumes a big part of your life, and sometimes you just want to stop and slow down. We started being just these guys in a band, and the next thing you know, everyone's asking for autographs. It plays with your head."

that is by daron malakian

[aajpity]

SOAD is back, in 2010 with there new album titled "Disease"

[jaygp777]

how do you know? thatd be sooo awesome if they surprised everyone with a summer album for this year.

[Tulwar300]

send me a link

[yeamotherfucker666]

how do you know?

[rawkenday]

soad is my fav band but serj shoud do what he wishes he is such a great guy

[aajpity]

What Hypnotize and Mezmerize(not mesmerize) produced lots of great songs incuding "B.Y.O.B.", "Question!", "Lonely Day", "Hypnotize" which are all good songs.

[biggysmallz222]

GO BACK TO SOAD!

[matulaak988]

You do realize that if SOAd ever got together again, it probably would not be how you want it to be, right? I mean serj is doing a solo album to broaden his horizons, shavo has become MUCH more an experienced musician and daron and john did the same thing as Serj. Theyve all changed, but they havent gotten any worse, so just chill and let them write the music that comes to their minds. Im personally enjoying SOB, Achozen and serj's solo, and awaiting their second albums.

[emmyjake15]

They are on Hiatus Because Serj Wanted to make a solo album they are getting back together

[matulaak988]

not neccesarily. both serj and daron may want to stick with their new environments

[haimhaouzi]

is serj gonna release another solo album ? (i hope so)

[TheJesperL]

Yes. But it's going to be more like jazz than rock.

At least that's what I've heard

[aajpity]

Jazz that would suck, SOAD is coming back 2010 though

[MarijuanaGood4U]

nice, sunny, windy day

[RedXIV]

"I like different. I live in different":)

me too

[HLGGanoth]

Serj seems happier now he is doing his own thing.

Im sure there are aspects he misses about being in SOAD but you guys are missing the big picture.

He still composes music (GREAT music at that) and is happier now making his own work.

Let him do what he wants to do.

[soccerkid5001]

this is great wat you just wrote!

[Z0AD]

5:12 serj say: perfecto!!!

[Nejitheultimate]

lolz thats funny

[systemofadownfans]

soad is not cooming beck not serj naither scars can do what system done

[musicbugey]

im sorry but i dont think soad coming back:(

[ShortTrack90JS]

Please come beck SOAD :( comon ! ! !

[Petermanoa]

Check for "Toxicity Vedres Csaba" on YouTube, you'll be blown away I guess.

[Sledgeface12]

It is so unusual seeing a guy being so nice who sang B.Y.O.B and Sugar. Hes a vegetarion too. Unusual

[dslayer415]

Everyone, let serj do what he wants to do, if he doesn't want to get back to SOAD, then he won't, he doesn't care what you think, he does what he wants.

[japproductionsthree]

dslayer415, it doesnt matter what people say(if they want serj to come back or not) its not like by typing that message your going to have a great impact. Fucking let people say what they want jackass

[cmpunk121212]

serj, you need to quit the side projects..time for system to get back

[serjtankianrlz]

yeaaahhhhh, cmpunk, serj should quit doing what makes him happy and get back to soad with this junkie daron because YOU want him to... hahaha stop dreaming of impossible and start thinking, man

[cmpunk121212]

yeahh he should..serj used to be a junkie with him...i respect that serj wants to do this..but i really would like if he would go back to soad

[serjtankianrlz]

it would be awesome if boys could get back together but i know that now it wouldn't be the same... for them and for us too

so let them do their solo projects and maybe, one day...

"accidents happen" :D

[jaimeduendeozzzkr]

this is what serj wanted to do

look at this interview and than look the uranium 2005 interview

he seems kinda happier

but still

system of a down has to come back

[nonstopmarko]

"i wahnt all be snich snich snich PERFECTO" i love that paart the en lol

[YoDioSephiroT]

I love sarj tankian voice ! nothing gay of course but I really do

well this interview is cool and everyone is right serj looks freaking great with his hair cut and his moustache xd

[jimbo222000]

[Khajiit523]

[Wierdoinc]

[cheese27happy]

[mafuhungy]

[SerjTankianGoddess]

[CaptnJackieSparrow]
