Citing influences ranging from Johnny Cash to Johnny Thunders, Van Leeuwen has applied his distinctive, intense sound to bands that merge the heavy with the ethereal.

The band included Troy Van Leeuwen on guitar, Paz Lenchantin on bass and Josh Freese on drums.

The rumour-mill attached to a band of as much cult popularity as Tool is always active, and when fans received word of a potential spin-off project, anticipation began to grow.

 Live Review: Mark Lanegan Band
Lanegan’s tenure with the Queens of the Stone Age-circus obviously didn’t do him any harm: at the end of 2001 he played at the tiny, but cosy AB Club, whereas this time around he performed in a venue about twice as big.
Gravel Voice was in a good mood throughout the entire concert (proof: he repeatedly mumbled a tombstone-styled “thanks a lot”), so it was a sure thing there’d be an encore, and indeed, Van Leeuwen and Lanegan returned with a bare-boned acoustic take on “Mockingbirds” from the man’s 1990 debut album.
It was followed by “River Rise” during which they were joined again by the rest of the band, and a surprising cover version of Beefheart’s “Clear Spot,” one that actually sounded even more convincing than on the latest EP.
