Abstract: In an effort to return to his edgy hard rock roots circa System of a Down, Serj has delivered the rocker Harakiri. The symbolism of entire species eradicating themselves on a large scale struck Serj emotionally, and is an underlying theme on the entire record. He took that idea and went to work writing, incorporating all of the experiences of his chaotic year to make a different kind of record. The album features performances by Serj's touring band, The F.C.C.
