“This was something I never wanted to do. For me, the system of a down is made up of us four. If one of us is not part of the system of a lowering, I don’t really want to be part of the system of a down. We thought of this possibility? Yes. But were we in this question? No. We don’t want to go to the names.

“I thought: ‘I don’t want to look laterally on stage and see other people.” […]. I think the Serj mentioned something in his book on the tested singer could not do guttural or something like that, and that’s why we have not chosen it [para substituí-lo]But this is not true. Serj and I never had this conversation why it didn’t happen. I was told: “I don’t think I want to continue, I don’t want to do it without being”. “
