System Of A Daron - Malakian Talks SOAD, Scars & Stadiums
System Of A Down guitarist and songwriter Daron Malakian returns to talk about the new Scars On Broadway album Addicted To Violence, out July 18th (his birthday)! He deep dives into his songwriting process, including the wild origin of “Chop Suey,” why he prefers writing songs over shredding solos, and how Scars gives him the creative freedom and outlet SOAD no longer provides. Daron shares stories from System’s sold-out stadium tour of South America, his pride in the band’s Armenian heritage, and what it feels like to headline in front of 60,000 fans after two decades without new music. He also nerds out over pro wrestling, breaking down his love for AEW’s Timeless Toni Storm (watch the video) and Will Ospreay, plus WWE's Gunther and Chad Gable – and how wrestling directly influenced his own onstage persona. Plus, he has stories from Ozzfest, the Sunset Strip, and why he calls himself an “accidental guitar player.”
