Serj Tankian

Serj Tankian’s new EP, Foundations, mines music and lyrics from previous decades and reframes them in a hard-hitting, intensely focused collection. Tankian calls it, “A retrospective of songs from different eras in my life, meant to compliment the memoir.” Like all of Tankian’s work, the five tracks that comprise Foundations encompass a wide range of sounds and styles. It is music that traverses multiple eras and vast swaths of emotions. It is also very much a rock album – “music of rebellion,” as Tankian puts it.
