V-_W ... whatever
Yeah, basically. In 1996 Maynard asked to hear Billy's demos, and offered himself as a vocalist should he decide to start a band. Billy originally had a female vocalist in mind.


That would explain The Constantly Consuming mix for the Hollow.

After eMOTIVe and seeing them live, they're music is tainted to me. I now find them quite tacky. I used to love Mer De Noms and 13th Step, no i have no desire for them what so ever. I don't mind so much if they broke up. They should've done it prior to eMOTIVe.

Emotive was an awful step for them, and so was their song placement in numerous movies, but when I look at it, Mer de Noms and Thirteenth Step were amazing and I can't shun them for those incidents. As far as live quality goes, I'm undecided. I've heard some amazing APC concerts and then I've heard some really lousy performances.

They had a contract. |:

They released Emotive/Amotion to finish their obligation and get out of their contract.

Yeah, well.



Yeah, it was really all just inexcusable.

truthfully I do not want A Perfect Circle to break-up but I think that is Maynard's decision not ours. APC have made great songs and tried to fill a hole where Tool once stood. But the power of Tool's fans dominated. Tool is a much better band in my opinion, but I think if they do break-up they will definetly get back together.

Yeah I agree, it's just it's sad to say that it might be true though. I wouldn't mind one more CD.

Oh jeez....i can't even think about APC over.....
It's horrible for me. i really do hope they make at least one more album.
Mer de Noms and Thirteenth Step were so awesome. Not to mention Emotive and Amotion....

I still have hope...i really love this band.... crying

APC is over. Let's hope Tool will be back.
I guess there is an upside to every downside. Or at least I hope there is.

I thinks A Perfect Circle is done, unfortunately. They've been my favorite band for ages. Though, Maynard did say they may get back together, depending on the circumstances...
You have to excuse eMotive. It was just to get out of a contract. APC made music for reasons other than fame/fortune. They couldn't do work their style or method with the company holding that contract over their heads.
I don't think you could really compare APC and Tool. The two bands have completely different styles.
On a side note: What do you think about Maynard's other side project, Puscifer?

Nope and this time it's straight from the horse's mouth

Maynard
Hello, APC fans.

As many of you may have heard, Billy and I are engaged in our own little projects for the moment.

His is called Ashes Divide and mine is called Puscifer.

Puscifer is perfect for those of you who suffer from ADHD, Obsessive Compulsive Accessory Purchases, Vinyl fetishes, Turrets and/or An Irreverent Sense of Humor. You will need to bring one, severeal, or all of these disorders if you seek to embrace/understand Puscifer.

We've included a number of websites for you to browse so you can determine if this is in fact your flavor.

If not, no harm done (you can remove yourself at the bottom of this e-mail).

We'll hopefully get along just fine without you, although we'd of course prefer to have you along to join us for the giggles.

Please be advised that A Perfect Circle and Tool are still alive and well.

This is simply MORE.

Because as you know, MORE IS BETTER. ALWAYS. God bless America.

Peace,

M J Keenan

Newsletters will be monthly, bi-monthly or whenever there's a worthy piece of news to share with you. Submit questions for Maynard and the rest of the Puscifer posse by replying to this email. Future newsletters will include answers to your top Puscifer questions.

Perhaps Maynard's just giving himself some time to do some work in his vineyards.


That's what i was thinking.
But then again, hes with puscifer, too... confused
