It looks like there may be some new System Of A Down music in the future. John Dolmayan told Kerrang! that the band actually have about 15 songs written. The only thing is, Serj Tankian has since told LA Weekly that still have to “see if that’s going to be System music or not.” For now, you can see their full statements below.

Dolmayan said the following:

“We’ve been working on a new album for the last six months and there’s about 15 songs that I think are album-worthy. We don’t know what’s happening in terms of release, it’s still not 100% as far as plans go. I want everyone on board and feeling good about it, that’s what we’re trying to accomplish right now. There’s a tremendous amount of pressure on us, though, because it’s been 11 years – at least 12 by the time it comes out.”

He also added:

“Our playing ability is better than it ever has been and we’re trying new things. We’re not trying to make ‘Toxicity‘ Part II, just because it was by far our biggest album. This needs to be something for a new generation of SOAD fans, so everyone can see we’re not resting on our laurels.”

Here’s what Tankian had to say:

“We’re going to get together and see if that’s going to be System music or not. And who the fuck knows? If it is, great, and if it’s not, then great.”
