(Metal Hammer) Serj Tankian has released a video showing him performing his track Empty Walls with a full orchestra. The System Of A Down frontman performed two sold-out shows with the California State University Northridge (CSUN) Symphony at the Valley Performing Arts Center in Los Angeles last week.
Their performance of the song "Empty Walls" from Tankian's 2007 debut solo album Elect The Dead can be viewed online. Tankian is a former student of CSUN.
This month, The Lyra Chamber Orchestra released a video of their cover of System Of A Down's hit Chop Suey. System Of A Down last week confirmed they had 15 new songs written for their upcoming sixth album.
Drummer John Dolmayan said: "We've been working on a new album for the last six months and there's about 15 songs that I think are album-worthy.
"We don't know what's happening in terms of release, it's still not 100% as far as plans go.
"I want everyone on board and feeling good about it, that's what we're trying to accomplish right now. There's a tremendous amount of pressure on us, though, because it's been 11 years - at least 12 by the time it comes out." Watch the orchestra performance here.
