Circle of Dust

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Circle of Dust was a mid-1990s coldwave industrial band created and run by Klayton (then known as Scott Albert) who is now famous for his solo band Celldweller. The band spawned numerous offspring projects, primarily lead by both Klayton and his lead guitarist, Darren "Klank" Diolosa, including Klank, Angeldust, Argyle Park, and CHATTERBOX.

Circle of Dust was popular in Christian circles during most of the 1990s, even though Klayton broke up the band in 1995. After their breakup, Klayton released one "last" album, Disengage. The liner notes to Disengage contained bits and pieces of an interview he had done, in which he explained that he had chosen to disband Circle of Dust and start anew with a later project called Angeldust (which also featured Criss Angel), as well as various photographs hinting at feeling rejected by churches. Circle of Dust was criticized by some Christians for not having religious enough lyrics, while other Christians criticized the music for being too chaotic. While there have been many other Christian bands involved in similar controversies, Circle of Dust was often considered to be one of the most controversial.

Since the breakup of Circle of Dust, there have been several re-releases of CoD albums. Among CoD fans, there are rumors that further re-releases of Klayton's material (including early CoD albums and his previous work on a project called Immortal) would be made. In 2005, Retroactive Records re-released the original self-titled Circle of Dust album, Brainchild's Mindwarp, Argyle Park's Misguided, and Metamorphosis (remixes of Circle of Dust, Brainchild, and Living Sacrifice).
