Los Angeles, CA (AHN) – System Of A Down recently said they’re not
going downhill anytime soon but admit they could use a much needed
break.
World Entertainment News Network reports that John Dolmayan, Daron
Malakian, Serj Tankian and Shavo Odadjian recently announced they are
taking a hiatus from the band to pursue other music endeavors. Many
of the band members want to work on solo projects and believe the
time to do so is now.
Lead singer Tankian says he cannot predict the band’s future and will
discuss it with his band mates when the time comes. He also says that
for right now he is focused on taking some time for himself to put
things into perspective and possibly work on a solo album.
According to StarPulse.com, he explained, "I’ve wanted to make my
solo record for years, but I just haven’t had the time. For the last
11 years we’ve all been wedded to this band, and now we want to take
a break.
He added, "I honestly don’t know if System Of A Down are over or no.
Maybe in a few years we’ll want to make another album. It’s
impossible to tell right now. It’ll be later down the line that we’ll
be able to tell what might happen."
The band’s last two albums "Mezmerize" and "Hypnotize" debuted at No.
1 on the Billboard charts in 2005.
