The world over, many artists are inspired by art of another medium: music. This universally emotional conduit has proven time and again how inspirational it can be when it comes to visual artists and the creations they bring into the world. Pretty much everyone can relate to the ethereal feeling of seeing a vision in your head when that certain song begins to play on the radio.

I, myself, am incredibly inspired by both music and lyrics in my own art, and decided to create a regular news feature specific to certain bands/musical artists to showcase the works on DA that have encapsulated those unique visions that music gives us all.

Bands are chosen by me based and searched in the DA database. I am more than open to suggestions if you would like to see a certain band or artist featured. Choice of art is based on personal opinion for original works inspired by songs/lyrics/bands. I will not be including fan art, concert photography, any art including use of the band's copyrighted album art, photography or logo (unless logo is applied to an original art work), or any "interpretations" of a copyrighted image the band has used. I will feature original art works, from an artist's imagination based on the featured band.


This Feature: A PERFECT CIRCLE
A Perfect Circle (often referred to as APC) is an alternative rock supergroup formed by guitarist Billy Howerdel. The band's latest line-up featured Jeordie White (Marilyn Manson and formerly of Nine Inch Nails tour line-up) on bass, James Iha (formerly of The Smashing Pumpkins) on guitar, and prolific session drummer Josh Freese (also known from Nine Inch Nails tour line-up).

Although the group never officially disbanded, A Perfect Circle has been on hiatus since 2006, having not written new material, toured or recorded; but the band's personnel have kept busy with other projects.





If you know of, or have any, art pieces you'd like to share based on Nightwish's music that I have not featured here, please post a comment below and share it with us! And as always, feel free to recommend bands or artists you would like to see in future features.

Until next time...
