System Of A Down's Daron Malakian has officially resurrected his Scars On Broadway band with the release of a brand new single and music video called "Lives".
The new song is the lead single from the forthcoming Scars On Broadway album, Dictator, which is set to be released on July 20th release and features Malakian writing, producing and playing every instrument-including all vocals-himself on the effort.
The "Lives" video was directed by Hayk Matevosyan and is streaming here. Malakian is donating a portion of the track's sales proceeds to Armenia Fund, a Los Angeles-based non-profit dedicated to worldwide humanitarian aid.
He had this to say, "I want to help the innocent people currently caught in Azerbaijan's ceasefire violations against the Republic of Artsakh and prevent another genocide against Armenians."
Daron shared this about the song and video, "The traditional Armenian folk dances and colorful costumes that you see in the video are an homage to Armenia's rich history and culture. The song and the imagery in the video are meant to inspire pride among-and empower-the survivors of a historical tragedy."
