An Epochal Open Letter from Serj Tankian to System of a Down Fans and the Global Community
To our cherished fans and the broader community,
As we conclude another remarkable tour season, I find myself reflecting on the profound journey we’ve shared. From the early days of System of a Down to our recent performances, your unwavering support has been the cornerstone of our evolution.
The energy you’ve brought to each show, the passion in your voices, and the stories you’ve shared have deeply touched me. It’s this connection that fuels our performances and gives purpose to our art. I recall moments when our music resonated beyond the stage, becoming a soundtrack to your lives. Such experiences reaffirm the power of music to unite and inspire.
While we’ve faced challenges and creative differences over the years, the bond we share with you remains unbreakable. Your enthusiasm, even during our quieter periods, has been a testament to the impact of our collective journey. As I’ve mentioned before, the desire for new music from us is the highest compliment we could receive.NME+1BLABBERMOUTH.NET+
Looking ahead, while extensive touring may not be in the cards, we remain committed to creating meaningful experiences. Our recent performances, though fewer, have been deeply fulfilling, allowing us to connect with you in profound ways.
Beyond the music, I want to express gratitude for your support of causes close to our hearts. Your contributions to humanitarian efforts, particularly those aiding our ancestral homeland, have been invaluable. Together, we’ve demonstrated the power of unity and compassion.BLABBERMOUTH.NET+2BLABBERMOUTH.NET+2BLABBERMOUTH.NET+2
