POWER SERJ

In case you haven't clicked the Musician Of The Month link that I just newly put up after Halloween, the artist to the left of this text here is Serj Tankian. If you're wondering, 'hey isn't that the guy from..' yes that is the guy from System of A Down. He just recently put out a solo album that I do so love to death, so I decided to do some research and actually do a Musician of the Month Feature. Are you ready? We start in....NOW. Elect The Dead, Takian's newly new (yes, newly new) solo album, continues to give either political...hold on....there are some random guys in my suitemate's room and it's making me afraid. Anyway, his album continues to give either strong political harmonies or random sporaticness that we all love about System of A Down. The only things astoundingly different are the increase in amazing piano riffs and the lack of the guitarists high pitch voice, but don't worry, Tankian himself provides that for us every once in a while on the album. My recommended songs have to be "The Unthinking Majority" and "Praise the Lord and Pass the Ammunition." "The Unthinking Majority" is just an amazing political rally song. If you ever want to start a revolution, this would be the song to do it to. Just like when I have a revolution against these random ass men in my suite mates room making all sorts of noise, I will play this song loud as hell. The song also provides amazing breaks for the delicious piano riff that just makes my soul leap into some kind of Russian dance (yes, I know he's Armenian). "Praise the Lord and Pass the Ammunition" is a mixture of that politicalness and sporaticness that I talked about earlier and that is exactly why I like it. Tankian sings about the "guns being above the ground" but the song in itself switches rhythms and even goes into a soulful harmonic part. That part basically electrocutes my soul. I don't know how. It's like a...umm...how do I explain...POWER SERJ of the heart. IT'S OVER NINE THOUSAND!

You'll like Serj Tankian if you like: System of A Down, Rage Against The Machine, Static X, Mindless Self Indulgence, etc.
