System Of A Down frontman Serj Tankian has announced a new solo EP, ‘Foundations.’ Tankian took to social media to announce the EP, which is due for release sometime in the fall, and revealed the track’s first single, ‘A.F. Day’ will be released on May 17 alongside an accompanying music video. Tankian also shared a snippet of ‘A.F. Day’; you can check out the teaser – here.
Consequence of Sound writes that Tankian said ‘A.F. Day’ was written during the “early days” of System Of A Down, but was unreleased. Tankian shared: “The majority of the instrumentation and vocals are recordings from that time. Dystopian in mood, it’s a reflection of the angst and anti-authoritarian attitude I had to conformity.”
‘Foundations’ will be Tankian’s first project since releasing the solo EP ‘Perplex Cities’ in 2022. He also announced his upcoming memoir last year, titled ‘Down with the System’, which promises to be “far more than just a rock ‘n’ roll fable”. ‘Down with the System’ is set for release on May 14 via Hachette Books.
