Serj Tankian recently released his EP, Elasticity and has now shared a lyric video for “Your Mom.” The animation was handled by director David Bradford, who has previously worked with Serj and System of a Down. Bradford provided an explanation for the concept of the video:
“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.”
The frontman previously dropped a video for “Electric Yerevan” and the self-titled track, “Elasticity,” which were both directed by Vlad Kaptur.
