Serj Tankian put "The Unthinking Majority" on Elect the Dead, the solo debut he released in October 2007 through Reprise and his own Serjical Strike label, his first record away from System of a Down, the heavy metal band that made his name. He composed it himself, but he kept it in the family on the drum stool: John Dolmayan, his System bandmate, sits in as a guest, while Dan Monti, the album's guitarist and bassist, lays down the bass line.

Tankian said the record mixed brand-new songs with ones that had been taking shape for years, and he likened the thrill of making it to the rush of cutting the first System album.
