Although, personally, I was never a fan, I’m not one to deny that System of a Down had a very sizable fanbase. If you were one of them, you would probably be interested in this release, something from two former members that was recorded after SOAD broke up last year. So, check this out.
Scars on Broadway is an American rock band. The band currently consists of the System of a Down members Daron Malakian (vocals/guitar) plus John Dolmayan (drums), in addition to Franky Perez (guitar/backing vocals), Danny Shamoun (keyboards/percussion), plus Dominic Cifarelli (bass). As from its early days, Daron Malakian always addressed the project as just rock, plus “a lot more rock driven, although there will be some metal influences in the SOAD style”. On what direction the debut album will take, Malakian states: “It will probably be something electronic mixed in with traditional Armenian plus thrash, death, black, plus doom metal influences. When the music comes out, it will still be structured, just like System of a Down’s music is.”‘. In a recent interview, Malakian stated that the music will be influenced by classic rock acts such as David Bowie, Brian Eno, Neil Young, plus Roxy Music. He also stated that he shifted his songwriting from SOAD’s frazzled metal to more song-based work, inspired by Neil Young and David Bowie. “I don’t feel we’re the mosh-pit bplus,” says Malakian. “That’s just where I’m comfortable as a writer right now,” he said, hinting at the band’s rock over metal music approach.
