Scars on Broadway

As a songwriter, vocalist, producer, and guitarist / multi-instrumentalist, GRAMMY® Award-winning Daron Malakian creates from a limitless palette. Like painting a moving target, he seamlessly integrates elements of rock, punk, metal, pop, psychedelia, electronic, and Armenian stylings into a living sound untethered from tradition and bound only to inspiration. The music grows and evolves with him. Under the moniker of Daron Malakian and Scars on Broadway, he continues to approach his craft with an alchemist’s open heart, an absurdist’s appreciation for the ridiculous, and an artist’s attention to detail. Malakian introduced Scars On Broadway with its self-titled debut in 2008. The LP bowed in the Top 20 of the Billboard 200, spawning fan favorites such as “They Say,” “Serious,” and “Funny.” The follow-up, Dictator, arrived exactly a decade later during 2018. In addition to praise from Billboard, Revolver, and more, Rolling Stone hailed it as one of the “20 Best Metal Albums of 2018.” The world initially got to know Malakian as a Co-Founder, songwriter, vocalist, producer [alongside Rick Rubin], and guitarist for System Of A Down whose legacy encompasses global sales of over 42 million records, a GRAMMY® Award, and countless sold-out stadium shows. Now, the same creative instinct and internal compass have led him to ADDICTED TO THE VIOLENCE—the third full-length offering from Scars On Broadway—introduced by the single “Killing Spree.”
