System of a Down frontman Serj Tankian issued the following update
on his official MySpace page:
"Being that the holidays are a time for being with family, I felt
it appropriate to update everyone about a project near and dear
to my heart, the debut album by my dad, Khatchadour. The album,
Inchbes Moranank, will be out in December at selected record stores,
iTunes and our very own web store at SerjicalStrike.com." MySpace
and Facebook profiles have also been created for Khatchadour.
According to the unofficial System of a Down website, SOADFans, this
collection of music features new recordings of traditional Armenian
folk songs that Khatchadour has sang for the majority of his life,
along with 2 brand new songs in "Hrant Dink" as well as the title track
"Inchbes Moranank."
Produced by son Serj with new arrangements from famous Armenian
composer Andranik Mouradian, the album is a collection of 11 songs
that brought the father and son team back to yesteryear, when the
love of singing was passed on from father to son.
"Growing up as a kid, he would sing and I might sing along with him.
So, I think in some ways, he put the love of music in me and more
specifically the love of singing." explains Serj of his father,
