Me like….Pulse Content reports two weeks after System Of A Down bassist Shavo Odadjian blamed singer Serj Tankian for holding the group back from making new music, Tankian himself has spoken out — and more or less confirmed what Odadjian said. Asked about the chances of a new System record, Tankian told Artist Direct, “A new record requires three years. It’s not something I can do right now. When I can commit to a three-year album cycle, I’ll be down to do it.” He added, “I can’t write a forced record. It’s like romancing someone at a time you don’t want to be romantic. It’s not even a choice.” Although Tankian did not address Odadjian’s statements directly, he said, “You can’t do it on anyone else’s timeframe. You can’t take orders. We’re not making pizza.” Tomorrow, I get a turn at trying to convince Serj to make some pizza! ;> …..The Full Throttle Fest Chicago festival will be staged from June 20-23 at Toyota Park.
