Elasticity (EP)

Elasticity is the third EP by American metal singer Serj Tankian, released on 19 March 2021 by Alchemy Recordings and BMG.

The EP is made up of five songs Tankian had originally written several years earlier,[2] for a possible System of a Down reunion album that did not come to pass because the other members of the band did not see "eye-to-eye" on their suitability.

[3][4] Tankian decided to record the tracks himself with engineers Vlado Meller and Dan Monti and release them under his own name,[5][6] expecting this action to allow the band to move forward.

[2] The album was expected to be released in fall 2020, but was delayed due to renewed strife between Armenia and Azerbaijan;[8] Tankian instead spent that period engaged in international awareness efforts.

[6] The album features some lyrics referencing the 2021 documentary film Truth to Power, which chronicles Tankian's efforts to gain international recognition for the Armenian Genocide.
