I got the new A Perfect Circle album, eMOTIVe, yesterday. There are a few songs on it that I like and a few that I will never like. But, I would have bought the album no matter what, just to support the band. They definitely made the covers their own. Maynard seems to have added a new vocal style to his repertoire–the jury’s still out on that one, though.
Of my two favorites, Imagine and Passive, Passive is my favorite. Passive is from Trent Reznor’s Tapeworm project that never came to fruition. I was never really into the song Imagine before, but I like this version of it well enough.
If you thought their last album was too mellow, this one is definitely not for you. All in all, I liked the t-shirt I got with the cd better than the cd.
