System of a Down singer goes solo

Serj Tankian will release a solo album during the summer.

System of a Down singer Serj Tankian dropped his first solo album in 2007, Elect the Dead. His second album, Imperfect Harmonies, was entirely recorded at the singer’s Los Angeles home.

No specific release date has been given but he did announce it will come out during the summer.

In an interview with Blabbermouth, Tankian revealed that his second solo work was influenced by Elect The Dead Symphony. This symphony recording from his first solo album was recorded in New Zealand last year.

The singer explains that the music on his upcoming album is darker than the first. He says, "Imperfect Harmonies could be classified as rock because it is punchy with many peaks throughout, but the instrumentation is somewhat different."

Between now and the release of his second solo album, Serj Tankian is performing Elect The Dead Symphony with several orchestras in Europe. Some American dates are also planned in July.
