Serj Tankian released the official video exclusively
on AOL for his first Harakiri single, "Figure It
Out." The video was directed by Ara Soudjian. "It's a comical
political song talking about abusive capitalism and the differences created in
economic stature and the reaction to it" says Tankian about the video. "CEOs
have gotten away with murder, until now..."
Harakiri, the new studio album from singer,
songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, poet and political activist Serj Tankian is
set to be released July 10th on Reprise Records/Serjical Strike. Harakiri,
a Japanese word meaning ritualistic suicide, is the follow up to 2010's Imperfect
Harmonies and the third solo release from the System Of A Down
frontman.
"Harakiri proves that Serj Tankian is not just one
of the best vocalists in rock and metal, but one of the most passionate and
provocative artists at work today." - Revolver
Harakiri is presently available for
pre-order on the singer's official website. $2 from the sale of each
pre-order will be donated to a non-profit organization to fight global hunger.
The single, "Figure It Out," is available digitally at services
including iTunes, Amazon and Spotify. Fans can also check
out the lyric video on YouTube.
Serj and the rest of his bandmates in System of a Down
will be performing a handful of dates in August.
