Recently speaking to NME, System Of A Down’s Shavo Odadjian opened up about how the legendary band were “always talking” and would likely “never break up”. He also spoke about frontman Serj Tankian‘s comments on how a new System record would be a “fresh start in a brand new way”.

“I don’t know what he means by that,” Odadjian said. “We’ve done things a certain way in our career where it’s always going in a new direction. Every time we do something new, it’s in a direction you don’t expect. Process-wise, we’ll have to see when we get together. If it goes in a way that works for one person but not the others, we won’t do it. It has to work for all four of us.

He continued: “Once that special time comes when we’re all in sync, we’ll figure out a way to do it. I’m not saying that it’s going to happen for sure – I don’t want people to turn this into clickbait like ‘Shavo says there’s a new record coming!’ I’m just saying if something happens, it will have to be in a way that all four of us are comfortable with.”

In other news, Tankian recently recalled his time working on the last two System Of A Down albums, and said that he “emotionally checked out” during the recording process.
