Serj Tankian and Film Composer Bear McCreary Team Up on Explosive New Song “Incinerator”: Stream

The post Serj Tankian and Film Composer Bear McCreary Team Up on Explosive New Song “Incinerator”: Stream appeared first on Consequence.

Film and television composer Bear McCreary has unleashed “Incinerator” as the latest single from his recently announced album The Singularity, arriving May 10th. The song features Serj Tankian on vocals, and has a sonic vibe that would fit comfortably in System of a Down’s catalog.

“When I got the music, when I got this song specifically, I was blown away,” stated Tankian. “It’s explosive.”

The song is explosive, indeed, starting out with a blistering guitar riff before Tankian’s soaring trademark vocals take the spotlight. About two minutes into the track, Tankian shifts into a chaotic rapid delivery reminiscent of SOAD’s “Chop Suey!”

The tune serves as the album’s leadoff track, with McCreary remarking, “Once I heard Serj’s searing vocals, I knew immediately that ‘Incinerator’ would be the first song on the album, acting like a warning that a massive, aggressive, and emotional journey lay ahead.”

Last month, McCreary released “Type III” featuring Rufus Wainwright as the first single off The Singularity. Other contributors to the LP include Slash (Guns N’ Roses), Corey Taylor (Slipknot), Jens Kidman (Meshuggah), Joe Satriani, Buck Dharma (Blue Öyster Cult), Kim Thayil (Soundgarden), Scott Ian (Anthrax), Brendon Small (Dethklok), and more.

To celebrate the album’s release, McCreary will stage a live concert at Los Angeles’ Fonda Theatre on Sunday, May 12th. Tickets are available here.

System of a Down, meanwhile, only have one show scheduled for 2024 thus far, a headlining set at the 2024 Sick New World festival taking place April 27th in Las Vegas. Tickets to the one-day fest can be purchased here.
