About this listen
From Serj Tankian, lead vocalist for critically acclaimed band System of a Down, comes a striking debut poetry collection, highlighting his best early works as narrated by the author himself.
Like System of a Down's multi-platinum-selling second album, Toxicity - hailed by Rolling Stone as "a bouquet of smart rock and ardent social argument" and by SPIN as "the sound of now" - Tankian's poetic style is willfully eclectic. Sometimes introspective, sometimes direct and cutting, these poems deal with subjects as wide-ranging as euthanasia and the nature of time itself.
Cool Gardens is honest, heartfelt, and humorous - a talented artist at his uncompromising best.

Weirdly pretentious and too often cringy.
I had to go back and listen to System's older songs to cleanse my pallete after this. Some of the poems were very much decent, but overall it was a strange experience. I appreciated the explicit exercises in vocabularly and the showcase of poetic devices, but the content left quite a bit to be desired.
