Serj Tankian is the lead singer of the famed Armenian-American rock/metal group System of a Down. Outside of his exploits with the band, he has released four solo studio albums: Elect the Dead (2007), Imperfect Harmonies (2010), Harakiri (2012), Orca Symphony No. 1 (2013) and Elasticity (2021), each of which has been more experimental than the last in order to distinguish his work from that of SOAD.

He also released an album with the group Jazz-iz Christ in 2013, which was a mostly instrumental album with few tracks featuring his vocals.
