On May 6 of this year, we posted about System of A Down frontman Serj Tankian saying that the band was definitely talking amongst themselves and that new song ideas were being thrown around. To go back a little bit further to April 2015, Tankian stated that there really wasn't a timeline for any material, and that things would happen as they happen naturally.
Then, the night of August 31, bassist Shavo Odadjian posted a picture of drummer John Dolmayan playing drums to… something. Which would be exciting by itself, if it weren't for that the fact that the hashtags were #systemofadown and #letsdothis.
COMMENCE SPECULATON/PANTS SHITTING! Could it really be that after 11 years, we'll finally be hearing some new System Of A Down material? Unless this is preparation for a tour, which would still be great considering the infrequency of the band's live performances.
