The Voice of System of a Down THE VOICE OF SYSTEM OF A DOWN “4 K” review in Kerrang - “System of a down frontman returns with a fearless and thrilling third outing!” – KERRANG “With shades of Foo Fighters, Metallica and even Rammstein working their way into the mix, a distinct punk-rock feel also sharpens many songs’ edges, most notably on the raucous ‘Fuck, Let’s Figure It Out’ and ‘Uneducated Democracy.’ While fans’ hopes for a new SOAD album continue to loop over Serj Tankian’s recent output, Harakiri easily contains the best music released under the vocalist’s name.” – AlternativE PRESS “It’s fitting that the leadoff track on Tankian’s upcoming solo disc, ‘Harakiri,’ is titled ‘Cornucopia,’ as it sonically and lyrically exemplifies the wide range of musical flavors that fans will hear on the album.” – LOUDWIRE “Although Harakiri will definitely appeal to the fans that discovered Tankian through his work as the frontman for System of a Down, the album offers a wider scope of musical textures that even non-metal and hard rock fans could sink their teeth into.” – AOL/NOISEcREEP “For better or worse, rock and roll has been intertwined with politics since, well, before Nixon, and there have always been those outspoken few who have seen rock music not only as a means of escapism, but as a powerful vehicle for combating corruption and injustice through education.” – Guitar WORLD “With his third full-length solo release, Harakiri, Serj Tankian has crafted a classic. It’s easily the singer’s best work since System of a Down’s Toxicity in terms of songwriting, vision, and execution. That album remains a landmark for hard rock at large, but the vocalist elevates everything to a new plateau here.” - ARTIST DIREcT “On “Harakiri,” his third studio solo album, System of a Down’s Serj Tankian is poet, jester, agitator, and seeker all balled into one frenetic rock ’n’ roll singer.” - BOSTON GLOBE “The third solo album by the Armenian-American singer for System of a Down is by turns brilliant, baffling, beguiling and belligerent.” – USA Today “[Harakiri] was arguably the most up-tempo punk-rock oriented record he’s written since the SOAD days and sure enough, the disc lives up to that billing.” – ABSOLUTE PUNK FEATURING THE SINGLE ‘FIGURE IT OUT’ SERJTANKIAN.COM • YOUTUBE.COM/SERJTANKIAN • FACEBOOK.COM/SERJTANKIAN • TWITTER.COM/SERJTANKIAN.

    N°2 | February 2021 Structures of Genocide: Making Sense of the New War for Nagorno-Karabakh Joel Veldkamp * “Terrorists we’re fighting and we’re never gonna stop The prostitutes who prosecute have failed us from the start Can you see us?” - System of a Down, “Genocidal Humanoidz” On December 10, 2020, Turkey and Azerbaijan held a joint victory parade in Azerbaijan’s capital of Baku. Turkey’s president Tayyib Recep Erdogan and Azerbaijan’s president Ilham Aliyev stood together on a dais in front of twenty Turkish and Azerbaijani flags, as 3,000 members of the Azerbaijani Armed Forces marched by, displaying military hardware captured from their Armenian foes. Military bands played the anthems of the old Ottoman Empire, the Turkish dynasty that ruled much of the Middle East in the name of Islam until World War I. Azerbaijani jets roared over the capital, dropping smoke in the green, blue and red colors of the Azerbaijani flag. Certainly, there was much to celebrate. In forty-four days of brutal combat, Azerbaijani forces reversed the humiliating defeat they experienced at Armenia’s hands in 1994 and recaptured much of the disputed territory of Nagorno-Karabakh. Turkey worked with Azerbaijan hand-in-glove during the war, supplying it with weapons, providing intelligence and air support, and bringing in thousands of battle-hardened fighters from Syria to fight on the ground.1 The victory opened up the possibility that the hundreds of thousands of Azerbaijanis driven from Armenian-occupied territory in the first Karabakh war, many of whom had lived for decades in squalid camps in Baku and its environs, would be able to go home.2 It was an impressive vindication of the alliance of these two Turkish states, exemplifying their alliance’s motto, “two states, one nation.” But a darker spirit was on display during the parade.

SUGAR - Chorus (Guitar) Words and music by Daron Malakian, Serj Tankian, Shavo Odadjian, and John Dolmayan Copyright©1998 Sony/ATV Tunes LLC and Ddevil Music All Rights Administered by Sony/ATV Music Publishing, 8 Music Square West, Nashville, TN 327203 International Copyright Secured All Rights Reserved System of a Down is the collaboration of four musicians from L.A. that share one relatively unusual characteristic—they are all of Armenian heritage. Serj Tankian (vocals) and Daron Malakian (guitar) met in 1993 as their two bands shared the same rehearsal studio. Shortly thereafter, they united under the name Soil. After several lineup changes, including the addition of Shavo Odadjian (bass) and John Dolmayan (drums), System of a Down was finally born in 1995. Amid lyrical assaults ranging from the personal to aggressive political and social indictments, SOAD draws upon an unusually wide range of stylistic influences including rap, jazz, hardcore, goth, Middle-Eastern, and even Armenian music. Dynamics can change on a dime. Vocalist/lyricist Serj explains, “We don’t just concentrate on an aggressive sound, though we have that. Anger becomes more angry when you’re quiet at first.” Nowhere is that better exemplified than in “Sugar,” the third cut from their self- titled 1998 debut. First, a word about the tone: More than any other band in this book, the guitars in “Sugar” have a pronounced lower midrange peak in the 600-800 Hz range.

  • The Devil's Music
    religions Article The Devil’s Music: Satanism and Christian Rhetoric in the Lyrics of the Swedish Heavy Metal Band Ghost P.C.J.M. (Jarell) Paulissen Department of Biblical Sciences and Church History, Tilburg School of Catholic Theology, P.O. Box 90153, 5000 LE Tilburg, The Netherlands; [email protected] Abstract: This paper is an inquiry into a contemporary heavy metal band from Sweden called Ghost. Ghost released its first studio album in 2010 and, while there is some discussion as to what their genre is exactly, they immediately became a rising star in the metal scene. Yet what is of particular interest from a storytelling point of view, especially with regard to theological answers to philosophical questions in popular culture, is that the band presents itself as a satanic version of the Catholic Church through their stage act and lyrics. This made me curious whether they are trying to convey a message and, if yes, what that message might be. For the present paper, I have focused on the latter by performing a non-exhaustive textual analysis of the lyrics in a selection of songs from each of the four studio albums released so far. Ghost turns Christian liturgy on its head by utilizing devout language that is normally reserved for God and Christ to describe Satan and the Antichrist, a strategy I have called the ”satanification” of Christian doctrine, and in doing so their songs evoke imagery of a satanic faith community at prayer. The band then uses this radical inversion of traditional Christian themes to criticize certain elements of society, especially those aspects they associate with organized religion.
