System Of A Down Guests On Saul Williams' Album

System Of A Down's Serj Tankian and ex-Rage Against The Machine frontman Zack De La Rocha are among the guest musicians contributing to Saul Williams' self-titled, sophomore album due September 21.

"Serj approached me months ago and told me, 'Yo, I wrote a song for you on piano,'" Williams, a poet and political activist, told Rolling Stone magazine. "He gave it to me on CD right when I was recording the album and I was like 'Oh my god, this would be a perfect introduction.'" The collaboration resulted in the album's opening track, "Talk To Strangers", where Williams recites his verse over a nervy piano refrain flecked with samples of female opera singers. Read more.

Audioslave are good in their own way. So is Rage Against the Machine, whose 4 CDs I got recently. I didn't know until now that Zack was still in the music industry...(you know, 'cause he's more political and all...)

[white_waltz]

Serj is awsome. Zach is awsome. I will write a mathmatical equation to explain this:

awsome person+awsome person+ person there helping=x

the answer is determines by how awsome or lame the person there helping is.
