Tankian And De La Rocha Guest On Saul Williams’ CD

System Of A Down’s Serj Tankian and former Rage Against The Machine frontman Zack de la Rocha are among the guest musicians contributing to Saul Williams’ self-titled, sophomore album due September 21st. “Serj approached me months ago and told me, ‘Yo, I wrote a song for you on piano,’” Williams, a poet and political activist, told Rolling Stone. “He gave it to me on CD right when I was recording the album and I was like ‘Oh my god, this would be a perfect introduction.’” The collaboration resulted in the album’s opening track, ‘Talk to Strangers’, where Williams recites his verse over a nervy piano refrain flecked with samples of female opera singers.
