System Of A Down singer Serj Tankian is featured on Brendan Angelides’ new cover of David Bowie’s “I’m Afraid Of Americans.” You can check that out below:

Angelides commented:

“I always loved Trent Reznor‘s remix of Bowie‘s original. I’ve been working on a new album for the past year and as this particular beat came together, I unexpectedly started singing those words on top. The first person I thought to collab with was Serj Tankian. Serj has been an inspiration to me forever and I’m now lucky to call him a friend. The video is built from our childhood photos. We filmed ourselves to drive the motion capture, then face-tracked, composited, and had a mosh party.

It’s the next single for my upcoming album ‘Can You Feel The End Begin?.’ I keep thinking about what happens to creative communities during authoritarian times. It’s half of what this upcoming album is about. Can’t wait to share it with you in a couple of weeks. Out on Aug 14th.”
