During a recent interview with Loudwire Nights, System Of A Down’s Shavo Odadjian discussed the possibility of new music from the band. The bassist says his “door is always open” when it comes to the idea of new material.

Odadjian said the following:

“Listen, bro, my door is always open with that. I have a hundred riffs waiting, if they need anything for me. The way it would work was Daron [Malakian] would come in and he’d have complete songs, which I fucking respect, man. The dude’s a fucking sick-ass songwriter. And then Serj [Tankian] would have songs he’d bring in complete. It would just be Serj’s were a little different than what the mold of System became. So we would use some of it, but not all of it. And I feel like that’s where the disconnect happened. It wasn’t like someone fucking cursed anybody. It wasn’t like someone banged anyone’s girl or cussed out… Nothing happened that you can’t be cool with. We’re still cool with each other. We walk on stage. We love each other. So there’s always gonna be that. I wanna always play shows with them. And you never know, bro. I’m always gonna leave that door open. It shouldn’t be shut.”

He also added:

“It’s a fucking shame that [new music is] not happening, because we can do so much. Look, we went in, we did two songs four years ago. How they sound, man. I mean, that could be an album of that shit. And we can even write crazier songs. That was quick. Daron brought a few of those in — boom, boom, boom — and the song was done; it was, like, two days. Imagine if it was going in and writing actual music and caring about the album. ‘Cause we compose albums. We’re not, like, songwriters. We’re songwriters that make albums. It’s all about the composition of the album.”
