Ashes Divide

[borntohula]

the first taste of billy howerdel's (a perfect circle) new project "ashes divide" can be heard here:

it's not bad. very cure-ish, like 13th step was.

[hum-an-ole]

Good stuff. Thanks for the heads up!

my pleasure. it's nice to see someone actually respond to the topic, out of the 32 views, haha.

i gave it a listen. sounded like apc to me. who's in this band?

[Crusader]

maynard?

[Some Random]

maynard + howerdel would just = apc again. not that i'd have a problem with that.

thomaaaass?

as far as i know, billy does all the instruments aside from drums. that duty obviously goes to josh freese, the notorious one man orgy.

 

it does sound a lot like APC. i've got nothing against it for sounding that way, though. the first APC record was pretty much all billy's writing anyways, aside from the lyrics. billy has a good voice. it didnt seem that way on the emotive record, really. although it was difficult to discern who was singing at times, so i guess that's good?

[hum-an-ole]

I'm interested to hear what comes next. This does have a similar feeling to APC, but if it's one or more of the same guys, I would say that's pretty justifiable. Plus it does have a different twist to it. I have no complaints, I love APC's sound (although Emotive didn't quite do it for me, but I find this to be much closer their earlier stuff, which is great IMO).

I like the sound of it, but because it does sound so much like APC at first, it feels like the voice should turn into Maynard's before the song ends, but it doesn't. Either way, i like Billy Howerdel, so if he's a good song writer in the lyric department as well, this could be good.

[borntohula]

he seems to be a decent singer. so it'll be interesting to see where the project goes, and more importantly, what people come on the road with him.

[Shiri]

Sounds good to me. Doesn't really remind me of APC (which I love, well, at least their first album) but I'm definitely looking forward to hear more.

[borntohula]

new song on their myspace. sounds kinda bland. like a perfect circle had a child with evanescence and some soda crackers.

[shade]

pretty lame.

 

Billy shouldn't sing. He is a unique guitar player though.

Not bad. Might check them out after they release more material.
