same here, only have mer de noms...although I've heard a few songs from thirteenth step, and the other album, but my fav song would be Orestes. Overall a very good band. Although I prefer Tool. Been listening to them since AEnima. Good stuff.

I had an art teacher who was able to make a perfect circle on the chalkboard using a very refined windmill motion of his arm. Perfect circle every time.

Edit: was not a big fan of that album of covers and remakes they did though. They pretty much butchered Lennon's Imagine

You know that's a cover of a John Lennon song, right? I mean, that's like his most famous song from his solo work...

Most of that album is covers, although they sound very different from the original versions.

Yeah Maynard isn't the founder of A Perfect Circle just the singer. But they are a great band.

Tool is by far a better and more creative band but I really dig APC all the same.

i think they're overrated like tool. When enough people say 'these people are smart' then more people want to jump on the bandwagon to feel like they are in the know. But I'm probably 'overthinking it'.

I only know of their song 'The Outsider', which is pretty good. Otherwise, I can't give an opinion.

Meh, you have to go a bit deeper. Howerdel is a good friend of Keenan, and when he was at his house, he showed him some demo's for "A Perfect Circle" and Keenan was like "Wow, that's super cool, I would like to sing for that kind of music." Howerdel was like "Ok, sexy, I originally wanted a girl singer, but your voice works too." Then the band was "formed." So while Keenan is an original member, the glory should go to Howerdel.

Interesting... I would like to hear how it would have been with a female vocalist, myself.

The Outsider and The Noose are really good songs, and I really dig their cover of When the Levee Breaks by Led Zeppelin.

Other than that stuff, they kind of bore me.

Right, because it can't possibly be that they just like the music, because they're not a band that you like, after all. Nobody here even said anything about them being "smart" so I don't even know where that came from. Here, I could probably do the same thing with any band that you like:

Oh, you like that because they are popular. You're just jumping on the bandwagon. - OR

Oh, you're one of those indie people who like stuff just because it's not mainstream. Look at how hip and trendy you are.

Maybe people just like it. Nah, you don't like it, so it couldn't be that.
