Title: Disappointing
Product review: I've always liked A Perfect Circle, from the time before "Mer de Noms" came out when they toured with Nine Inch Nails on their Fragility tour, and even now I still believe that they are one of the most original and hardest working bands in the genre today. "Emotive", a cover album attempting to express Maynard and co.'s political views, starts off strong with "Annihilation", but from that point forward the disc is anything other than what it's title would imply. The following covers, most notably John Lennon's "Imagine" and Marvin Gaye's "What's Going On" lack any charge or emotional legitimacy, which is a surprising fact considering the band covering them. "Emotive" is still worth a listen though for hardcore APC fans, but it is a great disappointment from an otherwise excellent band.
