Puscifer Update

Maynard’s not the type to sit idle, and recently as well as working in vineyards, rehearsing with A Perfect Circle and writing with Tool, he’s been working on some new Puscifer material.  According to a recent tweet it would appear that this work is no complete and a release “window” set:

Finishin up new puscifer tracks. mixin this month w hopes of an Oct release. It’s sounding pretty tasty. Fairly confident you’ll b pleased.

I’m looking forward to hearing what’s next for Puscifer!  No word yet on how many tracks have been recorded, my guess is it will be an EP…

^ Which is ironic, seeing as how an EP has less playing time than a standard disc…

The Puscifer show I saw was way more entertaining than the APC shows I’ve seen. And that is not a slight, at all, on the APC concerts I’ve been to.

I don’t feel the need to lap up EVERY single thing each Tool band member gets involved in. I don’t follow Tool blindly.

I don’t think many regulars here do either… I find the studio Puscifer pretty much unlistenable, and nearly didn’t go see the live show because of it. I’m sure glad I decided to go a few years ago. It was a killer show. And even though I much prefer APC and TººL, I can appreciate what MJKs trying to do with Puscifer, at least live.

Well…he DID take Neil Hamburger out on tour with him.

anytime someone uses the words “fucking awful” you can be sure they don’t know what the hell they are talking about.

you have a small mind, no music taste, and you’re just a negative asshole.

This Puscifer release is going to hold me until the next tool album comes out. The C IS FOR ep was the shit. His vocals on there…..just beautiful.

Or it could just mean that I don’t like Puscifer.

I have plenty else to be positive about….!

i just thought of something
what if you had the scene in the shawshank redemption where andy starts playing the record over the loud speaker system but instead of an opera we heard the beginning of the grudge and all those motherfuckers are just stopped and starring at the speakers….lmao to myself of course….damn thats funny to me

Puscifer is just another creative outlet for MJK. You dont have to listen to it. I honestly dont get all the hate/negativity.
I for one am NOT a ‘blind follower’ and still think its beautifully & well-crafted music. And besides for T()()L, of course, one of the most entertaining live shows I’ve ever seen.
Can’t wait for this.

I’m really looking forward to the new material too. I guess the only reason I started listening to Puscifer is because of Maynard, and my love for tool. I can’t say whether or not this made me ‘want’ to like it more, and if it was some other tom, dick or harry producing it, I would just move on. I think we can all agree that if you’re a tool fan, you do give the other material tool members produce more time and that’s because we trust their taste, motive, and creative outlets. But just to back up the fact… Read more »

Just bought this on vinyl. It sounded epic through the eye of a needle. I agree with the “appetizers are nice but I want my steak and potato, please” comment. I know I will enjoy his new album, but it will be bittersweet and tease my taste buds that are longing for some new TooL.

Agreed with everyone, Puscifer live is the shit and I will go to as many shows as I can if/when he decides to tour and I would suggest everyone else do the same

If I’d have said : Puscifer’s awful and anyone who likes them is mentally and socially backward and has unemployed parents – then I’d probably have a case to answer to.

Since I didn’t, I’ll stick with my original stated opinion : I find that the the music of Puscifer is awful.

I’ve seen Tool 7 times, A Perfect Circle 2 times & Puscifer only once. I can easily say may favorite live performance of Maynards was the Puscifer show. I went to this show not expecting much and left with my jaw dropped. Maynard actually likes to show off his talent with Puscifer, instead of standing in the background in the dark with his vocals turned down.

I think though Maynard will always fall back on the ‘I’m only one fourth of this project,’ defense in regards to TOOL and why he doesn’t try to take over out front now like he used too. Remember too that his vocals and the dynamics (in TOOL) are varied so maybe he feels it’s better to tone it down to keep things level, so to speak….
