Shavo Odadjian Unleashes a Trove of Riffs for System Of A Down’s Potential Album

When it comes to the alt-metal legends System Of A Down, bassist Shavo Odadjian is not just holding the rhythm together, he’s a creative powerhouse primed with ’10 to 12 albums of riffs’. That’s right—there’s more than enough ‘ammunition’ for a new SOAD album, and fans couldn’t be more electrified at the prospect. These riffs could form the backbone of the band’s first record since ‘Hypnotize’ in 2005, reigniting the unique sound that helped define a generation.
- Over two decades of riffs waiting to be unleashed.
- A legacy of powerful, politically charged music ready to be revived.
- An iconic band that hasn’t lost a beat in creativity or social commentary.
While some have whispered about the challenges of getting all members aligned for a new project, Shavo’s revelation indicates that his passion for SOAD remains unbridled. Despite side projects and the passage of time, it appears the volcanic energy of the band is still simmering.
Seven Hours After Violet may have marked Shavo’s distinct return to the metal scene after 20 years, but let’s not forget, his riff-writing machine has never stopped churning out potential hits for System Of A Down. It’s a testament to Shavo’s consistent commitment and the magnetic pull of the band’s shared chemistry that remains strong, hinting at the possibility of a monumental comeback.
