Mer de Noms [PA] by Perfect Circle (A) (CD, May-2000, Virgin Records USA)

To tell the truth I bought this cd out of curiocity , I was curious to listen Maynard perfom with others than Adam Danny and justin and I have to say I am very surprized. APC have a solid and clear sound and I am sure that If your a Tool fan youre gone love them too..

Every song sound different. Although, 3 Libras is one of the only radio played songs, all the songs are equally good....get it if its cheap- don't buy it new

I hope that it plays as good as it looks.11111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111

One of the best cd's I have ever listened to don't think twice buy this cd. If you like Tool you will love this cd!!!!

An extremely listenable album. Not quite as ... as TOOL, but fun nonetheless. A must-have for any Maynard James Keenan fan.

For a 48 year oldhippie raised on Zep , ACDC , Sabbath , the 70's 80's and 90's now this 2000 thing , this album has won me over. I've seen TOOL twice but never got the privilage to see APC . But I still , after wearing out 2 cd's , can't get enough. I just ordered on line the Vinyl copy of this . I love listening to vinyl at home. If you like melody leading into hard rock , you'll love .... A PERFECT CIRCLE .....

good album. I liked almost everysong on it. I like 13 steps better though. i dont know what else to say to make 100 characters...

I had this CD when it first came out, but lost track of it over the years so i decided to re-buy it. I remeber it being a lot better in 2000. One of those albums for which each song was excellent not just listenable. Now it seems kind of dated.

I'm a big contemporary Tool fan, mostly because of my love for their mathematic syncopations and harmonies, progressions and crescendos. I was excited to hear this little side project, but was mostly left with disappointment. I've never been much of a listener of pop-rock, and A Perfect Circle was no exception. Overall, this album came to me as a bland tone with lots of needless trills and distasteful melodies. If you're into mid 90's pop-rock, you may like this album, but don't expect to hear the originality that you get from Tool.

Tool is one of the few Heavy bands that has made it's mark and will hold up for a very long time. Perfect Circle is, to me, an extension of Tool. More than just a crappy side project, Perfect Circle can stand on it's own without riding the "coat tails" of Tool. Maynard is a genius with his lyrics and the band has a flowing sound with just a little "edge" than Tool.

I bought this cd becaus im an avid Tool listener...and i like to be involed in Maynards projects...this is a great CD and i recomend it to EVERYONE who likes Tool....Keep on Rockin!
Peace, LOve & Metal,

Keegan Maynard's finest work as far as A.P.C. is concerned. Keegan's lyrics and vocals are hauntingly dark and hit on a level of emotion that not many music artists can reach. Favorite 6 tracks include the hollow, magdalena, judith, orestes, 3 libras and (my personal favorite)- sleeping beauty.

This is definitely APC's best disc by far. Solid from beginning to end. The musicianship is excellent in every form. Troy left to play in QOTSA (one of my faves), while Paz left for ZWAN (Billy Corgan's Pumpkin like band, also recommended). This is really Billy's band with Keenan helping out on vocals. It's one of the reason's I like this CD. Billy's sense of melody is more in the forefront here than Keenan's pension for the weird. I think "Sleeping Beauty" is one of the best songs ever in this genre, even though it was never a single. If you're thinking of buying a APC CD this is the one!

i never recieved the item... sent 2 messages, but nothing... no sense of anything and I got lost my $...
