My question is, im wondering one of three things: did ashe leave the band, did the other band members want to go in another direction, or did daniel approach tesseract about wanting to come back? Basically, who initiated the change? They can spin it anyway they want in their statement, but I wonder what really happened.
If ashe left on his own for creative reasons, then why did he take the job a year ago? Didn't he know tesseract's sound?
If tesseract approached daniel, I gotta ask why? You just had a breakthrough that was widely acclaimed. Why tinker with the lineup?
If daniel approached them to come back, why did they take him back? It makes him look like a dude who sees his ex in a good place and wants her back. He left. He left once, and he could leave again. Did they feel like fans were saying their live shows were lacking with ashe, as opposed to daniel? Surely, ashe was a good fit musically, so it couldnt have been his voice.
Its suspicious that the band announced a vocalist departure and addition in the same press release. You would think they'd announce ashe's departure, and then take some time tofind a replacement. But the moves are coming hand in hand. It gives the impression that ashe is being booted, as oppoed to leaving for creative reasons.
