Hollywood Drum has written up an article about the show which can be read here
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.

Following the Street Drum Corps, rock band Ashes Divide cranked up the lights and turned up the amps. Led by lead singer Billy Howerdel, the group rocked with finesse and style.

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.

Artistdirect.com posted a favorable review of ASHES dIVIDE’s set at the Projekt Revolution show that took place at the Verizon Wireless Ampitheater in Irvine, CA.
“After Street’s tribal drumming finished, Ashes Divide flew the crowd back to outer space. Helmed by A Perfect Circle mastermind Billy Howerdel, Ashes Divide played a set filled with slow, warm guitars and intriguing, strange choruses. The band kicked things off with “The Stone” from their debut, Keep Telling Myself It’s Alright. Howerdel has certainly come into his own as a frontman; he stood center stage smoothly playing and singing simultaneously. He gyrated to the hazy melodies the band created, while vocally carrying the choruses of “Prey” and “Stripped.” To his left, guitarist Andy Gerold simply shredded, providing the perfect technical complement to Billy’s “feel”-based style.”
