LIVE REVIEW ASHES DIVIDE - PROJEKT REVOLUTION - CAMDEN, NJ
“On Projekt Rev, Ashes Divide….
Billy Howerdel, who formed A Perfect Circle - was really impressive, and appealed to my affinity for what I like to call "Tool Lite." I loved A Perfect Circle. I loved the melodic, floaty feel to their tunes, some of it a bridge over from the similarly-feeling, yet much harsher, sounds of Tool that Maynard Keenan brought to the band. Though with Ashes Divide, it now becomes easier to see where a lot of the band's - both bands - sounds have originated. Onstage, the backdrop and lighting, the use of the fog machine, all lends nicely to the "feel" of Howerdel's music, and I really enjoyed Ashes Divide's set. His chosen touring band is excellent, and they lend a nice charisma to the stage without overshadowing the more serene Howerdel as he plays and sings his songs. With the past popularity of A Perfect Circle, and the never-ending love of Tool, I can easily see how Ashes Divide has quickly gained a foothold in the music scene, and I feel it's well-deserved. Maybe they are not the most complex arrangements Howerdel has ever written, but it's good, good feeling music any way you look at it. Another good choice for this tour, definitely.”

MAMMOTH PRESS REVIEW OF ASHES dIVIDE AT CINCINNATI PROJEKT REVOLUTION
Having been in A Perfect Circle, one would expect frontman Billy Howerdel do be the stereotypical rockstar. This couldn’t have been any further from the truth. He humbly thanked the crowd for showing up early to see his “little band of merry music makers.” Most were unfamiliar with his material, but near the end of his set, it appeared that he had won the crowd over. Later, at his signing at the Island Def Jam tent, there was a long line waiting to talk to the band, take pictures, or just shake his hand. He could have left early, but he stayed for nearly an hour talking to everyone who wanted to talk.
