Ascension Of The Watchers (ex Fear Factory) Week: Day 4
02/22/2008
.
(antiMusic) Fear Factory's Burton Bell makes his triumphant return to the metal spotlight with his new band Ascension Of The Watchers, who released their debut album, 'Numinosum,' this week. But don't expect a Fear Factory clone, it's a new musical avenue for Burton. He is ably aided by his friends John Bechdel (Ministry, Killing Joke) and Edu Mussi (Still Life Decay) for the creation of 'Numinosum'. Other contributors include the CD's producer Al Jourgensen (Ministry), as well as the late Paul Raven (Ministry, Prong, Killing Joke) and Ben Bell. To celebrate it's release we asked Burton to tell us about some of his favorite tracks from the CD. Here is Burton with today's song "Sounds Of Silence": This has been one of my favorite songs of my life, mostly for the lyrics. I believe the lyrics are still pertinent today. I have had a 45 single of the song for quite some time. One night, for fun, I played the 45 single at 33. What I heard was AMAZING. It was the darkest song I have ever heard. I decided to do the 33 version of Sounds of Silence. Burton is currently out on the road with Ministry on their farewell tour.
