Serj Tankian's Solo Stuff

Serj Tankian has had a solo project going for a while and he's well into his newest release. Some details about the album are just now getting out.

The new album will be titled Imperfect Harmonies and is currently in the mixing process. Tankian is referring to the sound on his new record as "electro-orchestral-jazz-rock" He continues:

...the majority of the songs have this huge wall of sound presented in a way I have never heard before. It’s not common to have a song that is both electronic and orchestral since one is synthetic and the other organic, but I found a way of meshing a lot of these colors together.

Tankian also says his lyrics are more social, political, environmental and personal and are much darker with urgency. He sums up his solo efforts below:

My intentions have always been to make music that is creative, quality, and moving. I have never learned the static method of repeating myself musically whether in System or now. Each record I have made has been different musically, yet they all carry the same integral spirit.

There is no release date slated yet, but we are promised more info over the next few months.
