Meh I wish he'd just focus on Underoath...

 

So is The Almost on a hiatus or something?

 

Yeah he's said at this point it's kind of in the review mirror for him. He purposely did a quiet bow out by simply just not saying anything about it so that if he chooses to do more in the future, it wouldn't come off as a "reunion", but more so that he never technically ended it.

 

Can't remember where I heard it but I can vouch for that explanation

 

He pretty much said that much when I interviewed him last year for IVM. I got the impression that last Almodt album didn't really get as much love as needed (although it was awesome imo). I was at the concert for this last night. He played a new song from the solo album and it's very different from the worship stuff he's been putting out. A lot of Dustin Kensrue + Johnny Cash vibe going on. It was called "Rasberry Layer Cake". I'm sure there are YouTube videos of it floating around already

 

Update: it looks like the new solo album is under a new project name called Out of the Badlands. Here is the single on soundcloud Aaron Gillespie Out of the Badlands

 

Man..i want more The Almost

 

Ahh thanks for that. I couldn't get into much after southern weather but I'll check out anything he does

 

That song was released and the project was announced months ago.

 

I googled and Aaron recorded drums and did some guest appearances for one christian musician not long ago

 

Who is it?

 

That's a bummer. Thought their last album was their best.

 

I think he said that on Lead Singer Syndrome.
