Think you know @serjtankian Think again. Join the @systemofadown frontman and writer in conversation with journalist and filmmaker David Farrier, to celebrate the release of his incredible first memoir, Down With The System.
With nearly 40 million record sales, three albums topping the Billboard charts, a Grammy win, and a legion of fans, System Of A Down is one of the biggest metal bands on the planet. At its core has always been Serj Tankian, whose journey from the streets of Beirut to rock superstardom is as remarkable and unlikely as youll find.
In this exclusive conversation, Serj will retrace his extraordinary journey, exploring what it has taught him – about music, about art, about activism, and about himself.
From teaming up with Tom Morello to push social justice causes on unsuspecting metalheads to arguing with LAPD officers over the best way to quell his rioting fans, Serj will share an immigrants tale, an activist’s awakening, and a rock memoir unlike any other.
Down With the System with Serj Tankian was originally broadcast on Tue 14 May 2024.
