What do the band members do outside of SYSTEM OF A DOWN?
Daron is currently producing a CD for the band The Ambulance. Serj has Serjical Strike Records, where he has signed three bandsBad Acid Trip, Kittens for Chainsaws, and Slow Motion Reign. Sometime in 2003, through Serjical Strike Records, he will be releasing two collaboration projects. The first being Serart with Arto Tuncboyaciyan. The name comes from the first 3 letters of their names, but is has a deeper meaning: Ser means “love” in Armenian, so it also means Love Art. Then there’s the Bad Girls project with Scottish singer Petra Jolly. He has also self-published his own book of poetry entitled, Cool Gardens. Shavo keeps busy working on the visual side of things (i.e. videos, directing, etc.). John will be playing drums on a couple of albums. Whether he’ll be playing on full length albums or just a few songs is unknown at this time.
