Yerevan /Mediamax/. System of A Down lead singer Serj Tankian has announced that the band has released new music together for the first time in 15 years to raise awareness of “a dire and serious war being perpetrated upon Artsakh and Armenia.”

“We as System Of A Down have just released new music for the first time in 15 years. The time to do this is now, as together, the four of us have something extremely important to say as a unified voice. These two songs, “Protect The Land” and “Genocidal Humanoidz,” both speak of a dire and serious war being perpetrated upon our cultural homelands of Artsakh and Armenia,” wrote Tankian.

 

He has noted that the corrupt regimes in Azerbaijan and Turkey not only want to claim Artsakh and Armenia as their own, but are committing genocidal acts with impunity on humanity and wildlife to achieve their mission.

“They are banking on the world being too distracted with COVID, elections and civil unrest to call out their atrocities. We’re here to protect our land, to protect our culture, and to protect our nation. This is not the time to turn a blind eye,” underlined the musician.

He has also announced that “Protect The Land” and “Genocidal Humanoidz” are now available for purchase here, where band proceeds go toward Armenia Fund.
