'Scars on Broadway' First Daron Solo projects / 'Lonely Day' next single |

System of a Down released two chart-topping albums in 2005, Mezmerize and Hypnotize, and the band's prolific songwriter Daron Malakian is already back at work. However, that does not however mean there's another System record on the way -- the guitarist is bashing away on a new project called Scars on Broadway.
"I haven't decided if I'm going to make it a revolving door of musicians or one solid band," Malakian says, "but it all revolves around my writing."
He has time to sort that out, as System are about to film a video for "Lonely Day" and hit the road this summer. After that, the band will take some well-earned time off, and Malakian will seize that opportunity.
"We all want to take a little bit of a break," he says. "But I don't want to sit around, so I'm going to make an album."
Malakian wants to make perfectly clear that System will be alive and well afterwards. "Serj did Serart," he says, referring to System vocalist Serj Tankian's 2003 side project. "We're always doing things outside of System that come back to System in a positive way."
'Scars on Broadway' should be lunched after the next System's summer tour.
"Lonely Day" is officially the next System single from their latest Album "Hypnotize", been already played on both the official Site and myspace, should probably be out by Next March.

I can't wait for Daron's solo album. I'm so excited about that. He's incredibly creative and I'm sure that his album will be great. I heard that "Lost in Hollywood" was going to be their next single (rumors), but "Lonely Day" is a good choice too. It will allow other people to see a different side of SOAD.

I dont understand people's problem with Lonely Day being the next single. It is a good song and lie people have said before, it will show a different side to them. a side that NOT alot of people see. so in my opinion i think it is an EXTREMELY good choice for the next single.

i think hypnotize was the worst choice to make a musicvideo out of it, i just wonder , they could shatter whole rap music with ''kill rocknroll'' or.... HOLYMOUNTAIN could also deliver a great holy intention, i believe that they'r the best but their double album has not the previous organization and i guess that is bcoz of darons interfering in singin'(might be one of the reasons),,, i see that many of you love daron and i respect this. wanna knwo others idea. thnX.

The band knows best for sure, im not sure why people are making much noise about it, I mean this is the first slow single ever, why not having a slow single at least for change besides, the song isnt that bad at all, its good song, cant wait to see the video

That's pretty cool...but I thought it was going to be Tentative! I think either Dreaming or Kill Rock 'N Roll would have been good choices. I eman, come on, the worst they say in KRNR is Asshole.

I think Holy Mountains would have been a far better choice if they were picking based on sheer emotional impact. Plus, Lonely Day just isn't SOAD for me. It sounds more like something by Green Day. I reckon Lost in Hollywood will be their next single, although it should be Holy Mountains or Stealing Society.

Holy Mountains or Violent Pornagraphy should have been the next single.

After thinking it through...Its a damn good choice for a single. And for people bullshitting about it being Darons decision and all that....I recall Daron not wanting Lonely Day even being on a soad record...but all the other members loved it and wanted it on.

1) I don't like SerArt songs.That's not my style.And I think I won't like Daron's solo project too. I like Daron as a part of the entire System. I don't think will be that good whitout them. 2) Altough I like Lonely Day very much..but it's not among my favourite songs from Hypnotize.I'd prefer Soldier Side, Holly Mountains, Kill Your Rock 'n' Roll.But yet it's good they didn't decide to make a vid for U-Fig.That would be worse. I guess they're making vid for Lonely Day to attract more "non-system" fans, to sell more CDs, to get more popular, to receive awards, it's marketing ppl...

Mica_Yerevan: "I guess they're making vid for Lonely Day to attract more "non-system" fans, to sell more CDs, to get more popular, to receive awards, it's marketing ppl..." Are you serious? Do you even know what this band is about? How many times do they say that they make videos and songs for themselves? Daron Malakian: "We don't make songs for the radio, we don't make them for MTV, or your channel! [Fuse] We make them for ourselves." Obviously, they must have had a good idea for a Lonely Day video and went for it. I trust in them. They've never once let me down.
