System Of A Down frontman Serj Tankian says that the band is still on hiatus, despite bass player Shavo Odadjian recently hinting that they would be back in 2010.


Tankian said, "We always have offers to play, from festivals and stuff, but we have not decided to do anything as of yet," Tankian explains. "We're in touch. We talk. We call it an indefinite hiatus, and that's how we still look at it. Nothing's really changed."


The band have been on hiatus since 2006.
