|  I saw a perfect circle when they opened for nin during the fragile tour at cox arena in san diego they kick ass i would consider then at least light metal take a look at the soft side of opeth massive amount of similarities many other bands also share same traits like my dying bride and theatre of trajedy i would like to think of a perfect circle as part of the metal family the pit was notible i broke my hip during that show not even with soulfly slayer and megadeth in a row did i get much of an effort is when i saw a perfect circle and nin the ha pit during pantera now that was something that was more than but i wasnt stupid enough to go in there without a shaved head ;) |

band like motely crue the scorpions def lepard dio kiss black sabboth alice cooper ozzy osborne it seems that the "heavy" was traded for "speed" Metal isn't about the speed of the music Metal isn't about how much of an impact Metal is because it's nothing other than elvis is not metal but if he were alive today i guarantte he would be making metal a perfect circle is metal because it isn't anything other than it took a perfect circle to enter the world of metal where tool could not go tool was to rage against the machineny then they tried to hard there is also some stuff that people call metal that isn't i wouldn't even call it music and it goes even father down than rap and it really goes to show where cradle of filth and domue borger(sp?) draw the line from greatness and some really rally crappy wannabe musicans oh yeah and metal people dont cut their hair for anybody not even themselves they cut their hair when they dont want to have to care about it anymore [ October 19, 2003, 08:24 AM: Message edited by: KABLE ] | |

| Mu nótahu   | U took a big risk in buying the albums. Are u freaking kidding me, judging by the bands i've heard u mentioned, APC pretty much walks the floor with them when it comes to arrangement, mood/balance, execution, concepts, lyrics, performance and I could go on forever. The new album is great, i've had it for awhile, there's alot of interesting talk at the Message Boards regarding the "concept of the album" and the Chasey Lane mention in the liner notes(Chasey Lane is ofcourse a porn star if you didn't know). Check Here Like "Mer De Mos" the record is quite "pro tooled" and sum of the arrangements are way to "clustered" for your average listener, in other words you really have to PAY attention to hear all the textures and things that are going on, the production sure doesn't help in comparison to their debut. In some respects the album has this continual ambience similar to that of Pink Floyd's/Crimson's stuff, albeit with a much different style of delivery. I thought Outsider, Blue, The Package and Lullaby were the strongest tracks on the CD. Maynard is great as always, and he pushes himself in a few new directions (including some falsetto in The Package that reminds me almost of Dave Matthews). His lyrics are as ambiguous as ever and i'm guessing that's why they're being questioned by pretty much everyone who actually takes care to listen to them and analyze them(or shall I say OVERanalze them?). Maynard obviously knows how to pick words that fit the music well. Billy's Gibson guitar tone is still here, too, the basslines are higher up the fretboard like Tool. And Josh Freese seems to have a more dominant role than in Mer de Noms tho not as interesting as Danny Carey's drumming within Tool As for the whole is it metal or not? I could careless really! I'd say APC it's pretty much one of the few bands that breathes new life into the current state of modern melodic rock(Trapt, Bizkit, Fuel, Staind, Linkin park[insert current trendy teenage angst band here] [ October 29, 2003, 04:25 PM: Message edited by: Captain Beefheart ] |

| Mu nótahu |  Pardon me then ;) It seems APC is getting tons of "promo/coverage" for this album, they're on a major label(Virgin)so that would be expected. I don't know if eMpTyV is playing "Weak and Powerless" but the single is getting alot of rotation in the radio according to Blender which gave them a 2 star review for Thirten Step, and don't even get me started on THAT, but as I see it, i'm not much worried, they gave the new Pink,, Obi Thrice, Mandy Moore, Darkness 4 stars and give Outkast 5 stars). How's that for insulting my intelligence! If you have Kazaa search around, there's TONS of multimedia(live videos interviews). There's a WHOLE concert from eMpTyV(281 MB!), AW as sum other *live appearances* on Conan, Kimmel and Killborn performing "Judith", "The Hollow" and "3 Libras" and sum Maynard interview from Much Music. At the same time I would advice you to download sum LIVE TOOL VIDEOS for "The Grudge", "Ticks and Leeches", "Eulogy", "Aenima", "46 and 2".
