RF.net: So a lot of people are saying that you guys sound a lot like the System Of A Down. What do you think about that?

Daron: I think it's a sound that's evolved from System Of A Down. I don't think we sound.. I mean, I'm the main writer of System Of A Down, so everything I write is gonna have some kind of connection with that. It's not something that bothers me, I myself have told people that Scars is an evolution from System Of A Down, so it's no surprise that it might sound somewhat to the sound.. that you can compare it a little bit, you know?

RF.net: Sure. I'm sure you've also heard Serj's solo album "Elect The Dead" as well?
Daron: Not really, no!

RF.net: Really? Okay, just cause it has gotten similar comments as well, that it sounded a lot like System Of A Down. Considering that both albums are not that huge departures from the System Of A Down sound, people are asking, why didn't you guys just then record another System album with these ideas and combine them together?

Daron: Because four people make System Of A Down, and if one of those people in that four doesn't wanna do System Of A Down, then you can't do System Of A Down.

RF.net: Alright. Is there any kind of rivalry between you guys, between these new bands, in terms of...

Daron: No, I don't wanna get into questions like that, I wanna talk about Scars. I don't wanna talk about System Of A Down soap operas and shit.
