Jimmy Chamberlin Complex
Nieuwe band/project van ex-Pumpkins drummer Jimmy Chamberlin. Denk aan rock gemixt met fusion, so nu en dan wat uhm, "post rock" achtige dingentjes? Ik ben geen held in omschrijvingen :)
"Ranging from the sweet and lush (the ethereal “Loki Cat”) to the moody and mean (“Cranes of Prey”), Life Begins Again is the brainchild of both Chamberlin and friend, colleague and multi-instrumentalist Billy Mohler, an L.A.-based songwriter who has worked with everyone from Macy Gray to Fred Durst. The two first met when Mohler, who sings lead on “Newerwaves,” auditioned for Zwan. While he wasn’t hired for the gig, Mohler and Chamberlin became quick friends. It was him who Chamberlin called first after securing a record deal.
The two proved perfect collaborators: “It was kind of like, ‘Oh, I got this riff,’ or ‘Oh, I got this idea,’ and we would kind of talk through the parts and write the songs together,” Chamberlin notes. “His strength melodically kind of tied into my strength as far as “tunesmithery.” He’s a good part writer, and I’m a good song assembler. So I think in that respect our relationship really complements each other.”
Billy Corgan doet ook n nummertje mee, namelijk op "Lokicat". Zeker de moeite waard voor iig Pumpkins fans en liefhebbers van "fusionrock" of whatever.
