Since the break-up of Spring Offensive, Dave Voss has played drums for many bands including the recently successful Leicester Post Rock Band Maybeshewill (http://www.myspace.com/maybeshewont), and Octimus, throught this, time was spent writing personal material along the Journey, including songs about life experiences and the dispise of love songs. Influenced heavily by Elliott Smith, Damien Rice and John Frusiciante, the music conciously reflects these influences with great respect, Through acoustic melodies to dynamic rock instrumentation.
'...What stands out about Dave's music is the quality of his musical arrangements for guitar and keyboard and the accomplished way that he works his lead vocals alongside the backing...'
(Leicestershire Arts http://www.artsinleicestershire.co.uk/singers.htm)
'...Dave's songs are melodic and atmospheric, slightly dark at times but always evoking strong emotions and poetic reflections. Moody and sometimes sultry, his songs comment on life and experience, sometimes serene but at times rising to a crescendo as he visits some powerful feelings...'

yyeah you must play mor gigs this is very important for artist. ooo ! I invite you to Poland on special gig for me ;pp heh it's joke of course ;D
i see that you like placebo and others alternative music , so maybe i invite you for big music festival in Poland 'Heineken Opener Festival' .it's every year in summer haha ;d
hm.. playing on drums must be so hard for beginner i think.For me it's to much things to overrun in them... where do you exercise playing ? In kind of 'music school' or in friend which have drums ? Maybe in next song you merge acoustic guitar with new skills on drums ? it'll be very interesting ;)
Moreover, can i count on lyrics from 'filled with reason', or maybe this is your treasure and i can't get this from you ;P?
Take it easy :D I know , that you didn't promise , but you wrote some notice on your 'internet diary' ;P so , ok , i understand - i must wait for new song still a few weeks hm... i'll try survive with this think :D And how are you enjoy on drums ?
This is a long time.. i just only try to playing on guitar ;) now i wait for new, acoustic guitar ;) I definitely prefer sound from acoustic guitar than classic. But you know it will be great, and provided that i will be spend more time on exercise... ;)
yeah, i read that Elliott is in your opinion very special artist, and i understand your feelings because he is really good ! I think that everyone shoud have some master, and from you - this is great decission ;D
I suppose that some of my friends are going to hear your music, and i think that i'll find your new fans ;p heh Because I and my friends very like acoustic sound from guitar ;]
I don't think so, that not many people seem to like your music ... I suppose that many people didn't hear your voice and songs ...hm.. and i don't no how is it with career in usa, but i know one ... it's very hard with this kind of music everywhere.. , because pepole will be hear simple texts, more bass and by occasion very rowdy music... they can't appreciate artist with other music..
After my hyh.. very chaotic speaking (i have hope that you understand my english..;p)and i will tell you, that now i wonna to hear more and more your tracks ;D so i will be waiting ;)
Looks like we had the same idea commenting each other at the same time! Yeh would be good to gig together definitely! I havent got an EP as such at the moment. Youcan get my songs off a site called rawrip though but that's about it for now! Should be getting some new songs up here in the coming weeks. Keep in touch, Dan.
