Serj Tankian Elasticity 12" Vinyl EP

"Electric Yerevan" will be the focus track and comes out alongside the EP on March 19, 2021. It will also be featured in the trailer and end credits for the upcoming Serj Tankian-directed documentary, Truth Is Power, out on April 27.

One of the most unconventional frontmen in rock, Serj Tankian, the voice of System Of A Down, emerged as a solo artist with his debut album Elect The Dead. System Of A Down's five genre-bending studio albums have sold over 16 million copies.

Serj Tankian has always created music as an outlet to express his thoughts and feelings with a level of passion and consciousness that few in today's world of music can rival. An Armenian immigrant born in Lebanon and re-rooted in Los Angeles, Serj was introduced to the melding of cultures, ideas and ideals from a very young age. The principles learned from this integration and adaptation have led to his understanding of the oneness of all things and have since maneuvered and transfigured into the music that he lives to create.

Early in his career, Serj found an outlet as the rabble-rousing lead singer and songwriter of the massively successful rock band System of a Down, a band that has reached into the hearts and minds of millions of people relaying multiple messages of love, awareness and activism. Despite this success, Serj has not grown complacent with his art, always striving to open up new channels of sound and arrangement to articulate his musical expressions. Serj Tankian's resume also includes the formation of a record label, Serjical Strike Records (established in 2001) which has released albums by 8 critically acclaimed artists, including Fair To Midland, Buckethead and Death By Stereo.

Along with fellow musician Tom Morello (Rage Against The Machine, Audioslave), Serj co-founded the non-profit organization Axis Of Justice in 2002, which strives to bring together musicians, fans of music and grassroots political organizations to fight for social justice. He has also dabbled with the world of broadcasting as co-host of the Axis Of Justice Radio Network, which can be heard via Sirius Satellite Radio and KPFK in Los Angeles. With a mission of spreading diversity and understanding through music, poetry and activism, Serj Tankian will continue to surprise and enlighten those who listen to his music and hear his words.
