System of a Down's Serj Tankian on 20 Years of “Toxicity” | Broken Record (Hosted by Rick Rubin)

System of a Down’s classic Rick Rubin-produced album “Toxicity” turns 20 this year. Released in 2001, one week before 9/11, the politically charged and wildly bizarre album provided the perfect soundtrack for a world descending into chaos. Serj Tankian, the lead singer of System, is no stranger to conflict. His family is Armenian and migrated to Los Angeles from Lebanon to escape a civil war when Serj was 7 years old. In LA he grew up in a tight-knit Armenian community along with the rest of his younger System bandmates. As Serj’s star began to rise in the late ‘90s, his activism intensified. And to this day he continues to raise awareness around the Armenian genocide and the impact of corporate greed. Last month he released the documentary called “Truth To Power” which documents the intersection of Serj’s work as a musician and an activist.  Today we’ll hear Rick Rubin talk to his good friend Serj about how hearing bombs drop outside his childhood bedroom turned him into a lifelong activist. Serj also explains how a pretty odd and funny line about a tapeworm almost caused System of a Down to break up, and why the first time Tom Morello of Rage Against the Machine heard System play, he called it music for crazy people.
