Ο Serj Tankian δημοσίευσε lyric video για το “Your Mom”! Το clip σκηνοθέτησε ο καλλιτέχνης και animator David Bradford, που έχει συνεργαστεί με τον Tankian τόσο στο προσωπικό του σχήμα όσο και με τους SYSTEM OF A DOWN.
Όπως εξηγεί ο Bradford το concept για το “Your Mom” : “Καθώς άκουσα το τραγούδι με την συναισθηματική ακουστική κιθάρα, οραματίστηκα ένα πουλί να πετάει πάνω από την φύση, εντελώς απονήρευτο για τον κίνδυνο που παραμονεύει στις κατακρεουργημένες περιοχές από τον πόλεμο. , Αλλά αυτό δε σταμάτησε το πουλί από το να πετάξει μέσα στον κίνδυνο και πήρε τη μορφή του ‘Your Mom’.”
Το “Your Mom” είναι το τρίτο τραγούδι από το ep του Tankian”Elasticity” που οπτικοποιείται.

Serj Tankian has unveiled a lyric video for the song “Your Mom”. The clip was directed by artist and animator David Bradford, who has worked with Tankian on solo projects as well as projects with SYSTEM OF A DOWN.
Bradford explains his concept for the “Your Mom” clip: “As I listened to the beginning of the song, with the more mellow acoustic guitar, I envisioned a brave bird flying over a countryside, unaware of the danger waiting in the ashen, war-torn lands ahead. This didn’t stop the bird from gliding into danger and took the form of ‘Your Mom’. As the fighters continue their campaign of destroying the Earth with their bombs and chaos, the mom summons the strength from her connection to Mother Earth and becomes the personification of justice against the fighters. She kicks their asses and returns to the form of a bird, perched on the carcasses of the destroyers and restores the Earth’s balance.”
“Your Mom” is the third song from Tankian‘s five-track EP “Elasticity” to receive a visual accompaniment, with the Los Angeles- and New Zealand-based musician previously releasing both the Vlad Kaptur-directed video for “Elasticity” and the politically charged “Electric Yerevan” video.
“Elasticity” is available now digitally and on CD, with the galaxy-colored vinyl version of the album arriving on April 30. A collection of autographed, and limited-edition “Elasticity”-themed merchandise can also be found on the Tankian webstore.
