System And KROQ Team For “Souls” Benefit

System And KROQ Team For “Souls” Benefit

FMQB
March 8, 2005

System Of A Down is partnering with KROQ/Los Angeles to present
the band’s Souls 2005 benefit concert on April 24 at the Universal
Amphitheatre. This is the third concert under the “Souls” name
organized and headlined by System Of A Down. Proceeds from the concert
will benefit organizations that work to stamp out genocide around
the world.

The members of System of a Down all have lost family members and
family history to the Armenian Genocide during World War I. “Because
so much of my family history was lost in the Armenian Genocide,”
said guitarist/singer Daron Malakian, “my grandfather, who was very
young at the time, doesn’t know his true age. How many people can
say they don’t know how old they are?”

As reported yesterday, the first part of the band’s double-disc
Mezmerize/Hypnotize album will arrive in stores on May 17. The first
single, “B.Y.O.B. (Bring Your Own Bombs),” will arrive at radio later
this month.
