Scars On Broadway's Self-Titled Debut Album Available Everywhere July 29!
|
In System Of A Down, Daron Malakian and John Dolmayan earned five straight platinum albums, including three #1's, and headlined numerous festivals and sold out shows around the world. But he is sincere when he says, "I really didn't feel like, 'Hey, just because I'm Daron from System Of A Down, everyone's just going to bow down to this music.'" That he's not taking anything for granted about Scars On Broadway's self-titled debut due out July 29 (Interscope) is evident in his enthusiasm as he talks about the immediate success of the powerful guitar-driven rocking first single, "They Say."
While Scars' eponymous debut still rocks with an aggressive intensity, particularly on the opening "Serious" and "Exploding/Reloading," both of which bring a punk energy, and the hard rock blues twang of "Whoring Streets," the album is propelled by the melodic and rock tunes like "Funny," a song that is a straight-forward pop-rocker in the best sense of the term, the hooky "World Long Gone," and of course "They Say."
The evolution of Scars, a project Malakian has freely talked about since 2005, has been an ongoing one, much of the process centering on finding the right musicians to round out the project. That didn’t really get going until Dolmayan came on board.
