To be released on September 16th, A Perfect Circle's new album.
I've had the pleasure of working my ass off to get tickets to one of their many sold out shows they'll be playing within the next month and so on. I'll be sure to inform you how that pans out. Anyfuck, if you've not heard their new single yet, "Weak and Powerless", go ahead and followthis link to hear it. The title of the album, much reflecting the title of this thread, is "Thirteenth Step". The tracklisting is as follows: "The Package", "Weak and Powerless", "The Noose", "Blue", "Vanishing", "A Stranger", "The Outsider", "Crimes", "The Nurse Who Loved Me", "Pet", "Lullaby", and "Gravity".

Just listened to Weak and Powerless. Very good song. I like A Perfect Circle. This album has the potential to break my streak of downloading albums rather than buying them...but probably not.

I eagerly anticipate the new album. But I'm sure I'll be somewhat sustained until it's release when I go see them in concert this weekend [img]smile.gif[/img]
If this album is even remotely on the same level as "Mer de Noms", then it'll definately be an epic worth owning, whether this is your style of music or not. |

I just witnessed one of the coolest shows ever. I saw A Perfect Circle in Cleveland along with a few of my closest friends. This show fucking rocked. It was wonderful to see these guys live finally. For those that don't know, the official new line up consists of the already-band-members: Maynard James Keenan (singing diety), Billy Howerdel (guitar diety) and Josh Freese. New members include former Smashing Pumpkins guitarist James Iha as rhythm guitarist and former Marylin Manson bassist Jeordie (a.k.a. "Twiggy").
So yeah, anyway. We'll just say they played about 6 new songs, and they all fucking kicked an insanely royal amount of ass. These songs are beautifully, beautifully orchestrated and it's a nice fresh sound for the band. They've got a wonderful diversity of soft, beautiful, mellow parts and insane, rhythmic and fuct time signatured, heavy parts. I was rocking out with my cock out. No, seriously, I brought my rooster along with me and we were both moshing together in the crowd. The venue was beautifully small (900 at the most). We were right up at the very front. Pliedes miraculously caught Billy Howerdel's pick at the end of the show, and shoved it in his mouth for safe-keeping... it may still be there. Maynard was wearing a wife-beater, Adidas windbreaker pants, and sandals atop a tall pestidal in the back of the stage from which he tossed slim jims at the crowd. Yeah, I didn't get one. The show was just incredible. We were so blessed to be able to see such an amazing band in such a small place. I cannot stress to you enough how amazing their new shit is. The first single "Weak and Powerless"... nothing. Doesn't hold a candle to the other stuff (aside from the fact that it's generally a horrible choice for a first single). Anyway, who gives a fuck, these guys are true Dieties of Dark Rock. Fucksake. And, oh, by the by, I touched "Maynard's Dick". It's a song, do your homework you perverted fuck.

I can't even begin to describe how fucking awesome this show was... so I'm not.
A Perfect Circle is one of the best bands around these days, and I don't care if rock isn't your style, if you appreciate good quality music, then you will love and respect this more than anything out there. Bow down mother-fuckers, bow down. And for the record, Billy Howerdel uses Dunlop vinyl 1 mm picks (black).... and I have one... |

"It looks like the version of the cd released in North America will not be feature copy protection, but pretty much all others will. So in this case it looks like fans in Europe are getting screwed by the suits even more then we are. Sorry. Also, I have gotten many emails on this subject, and I thought I would just share one of them in hopes that we can play a small part in bringing attention to this issue.
'Hello, I just felt like telling you, that I got the record today (in Switzerland) and it IS copy protected so it turns out, that (after pre-ordering the album on the 7th of October 2003) I can't listen to it because it doesn't play on my discman (Sony D-CJ501) and I can tell you that I'm VERY pissed off!!! This is a total rip-off! Every asshole who downloads the album and burns it onto CD can easily listen to it but the honest buyer can't?? FUCK VIRGIN RECORDS! Sorry to bother you with this, XXXX'" |
