A Perfect Circle - Delicious [Audio]

[@giuliazanon355]

I will never be grateful enough for this song. It helped me get out of 12 years of a toxic relationship. I can breathe. I can reason. I can sleep. Good night. Sleep tight.

[@brokenseatbelt]

" Choice and bed be made, good night. Sleep tight. " Love that line. This album is a masterpiece.

[@joepotash234]

Duudeeee, so rad.. And the riffs behind that chorus have so much balls

[@Utubesuxmycock]

hits me everytime so powerful and striking!

[@jonfaris1895]

Yes. Master class in relevance, and poignancy.

[@HawkOfLight1]

it's reported that Hillary Clinton was asleep during the presidential election night of 2016, not because she was nervous, but because she was assured of her victory. After her loss it was quite unlike her to walk away, but as they say choice and bed be made.

[@HawkOfLight1]

@@mytzlplk5929 But it's a politically driven album. It's called Eat the elephant. He gotta song bout that Trump feller as well, maybe. The hourglass song is about nuclear warfare, something that almost happun with u.s. and Korean North. To me the song about Feathers (Not the Band) seems to be a call for speaking out politically instead of leaving it to the paid for opinions on cable teevee. Although A Perfect Circle is not a band who is absolutely political they have been boldly political in the past with that emotive album. I would be dipped in shit and rolled in bread crumbs if this album be about anything else.

[@januszstolarek9862]

I’d high five all APC members for taking another angle at their style. Great set of songs and a great journey listening to this record. Unique album. Is it better , is it worse than before ? Who cares!? It’s different and it is APC!

[@SteveRayburn]

I'm with you here, I think it's unreasonable to expect a band to go in the same direction all of the time, and they were brave enough to take the music a little further this time.

[@joeymario21]

2:32 until the end of the song is just pure magic. Love that they just flip that shit so fast

[@HermeticAscetic22]

This one's got the most number of plays on my phone. The vocal melodies and the acoustic guitar make it stand out on the album.

[@RayoAtra]

this is by far the most classic APC sounding song on the album.

[@johnscurlock2920]

Remember that the wiggles before sides

[@corywashburn]

How inconvenient and unexpected And harrowing for you As consequences tend to be For the rest of us So delicious To witness your dread Poetic justice consummate Not unlike you to heedlessly Hoist away your smug grenade Arrogant and insolent You don't give a damn Collateral be damned Not unlike you to hoist away Hoist away your smug grenade Choice and bed be made Goodnight - sleep tight So delicious For the rest of us To witness your dread Poetic justice consummate Not unlike you to heedlessly Hoist by your own vain petard Wrong side of history You don't give a damn Collateral be damned Not unlike you to hoist away Hoist away your smug grenade Choice and bed be made Goodnight - sleep tight

Google told me it was "Wedding just as consummate" but now that you mention it, it ALSO sounds like "Poetic justice consummate". How can we know for sure!

[@lancejames9228]

one of their best

[@user-uo9kf1sx5o]

@@Ayelis heard of context? Its "poetic justice".

[@maryannhammontree2116]

This song was a perfect ending to a phenomenal concert, the only ❤ song the let us record, and I have part of it! I luv singing it too! Makes me feel fantastic!

[@Masked_Official]

This has a late 90's and early 00's vibe. I get slight mer de noms + smashing pumpkins vibe

[@flynnmarland5531]

YES THANK YOU!

[@cashew0243]

yep same, i got very strong SP vibes from this one

[@gamefreak457]

cashew 024 Probably James Iha’s influence. He played a huge part in the Smashing Pumpkin’s sound

[@johannaeriksson7553]

Nice catch! Just read an interview in Kerrang where Billy said that he actually wrote this song back in the Mer de Noms era and they were apparently spinning a lot of Radiohead’s OK Computer throughout.

[@fuel20]

The ending reminds me of Duran Duran's, "Ordinary World".

[@fosterseth]

You could stick this track on Thirteen and it wouldn't be too out of place. My favorite track on Eat the Elephant so far

[@nos3ble3d]

No. Maybe on emotive.

[@bmy5teriou525]

I don’t understand the hate of the new album. APC is back... We should all be overjoyed.

[@cikame]

It's very different to their previous work, there are some good songs on the album and this one's alright, but a lot of the tracks kind of tread water without going anywhere... to put it simply. For most other bands you could say "ok, they had an off album, hopefully the next one's better", but we really can't hope for another can we. Personally as much as i love his past music, i think Howerdel has run out of ideas, the Ashes Divide album kind of went the same way with The Stone being an absolute banger, then everything else kind of floating around with little direction.

[@movimentodoscacos]

It depends. One should be happy for APC releasing new stuff and willing to change up their sound for a bit. But that doesn't mean one should like it just because of this. IMO this record is really mediocre, and I really expected better from APC.

[@jessicaglaspie9005]

KZbinCommentReader agreed

[@jackgoff4859]

Agreed, however Disillusioned and Delicious would go on my "APC Greatest Hits" if I were to make one for sure.

[@StrangeMuzikFan]

Well you have those say their band has sold out. Then those who say they sound too much like there last release. These guys are still killing it as usual, but everyone's got an " in depth perspective" these days..

[@mirvin1977]

Best song on the whole album. Love it.

[@IIISWILIII]

James takes us back to 1994 with that more than just a little Pumpkinish outtro!! love it

[@oompaloompadoompa-de-doo3614]

I figured Corgan always played that part since Iha was more of a rhythm player

[@IIISWILIII]

@@oompaloompadoompa-de-doo3614 he may have, I was referring mainly to the clear pumpkin influence

[@tararawson2630]

You know that Billy Howerdel does all the writing for APC, right?? Iha is little more than a session player.

[@johnminton2661]

Eat the Elephant is APCs best album! Everything they do is great but this album is amazing!

[@clarknichols]

that tone in the ending solo... both jawdropping and tearjerking. i have never heard such an incredible guitar tone. billy howerdel is a genius

[@th3cha1rmak3r]

A Perfect Circle has always shown admiration for Failure. This is the best tribute to that admiration up to date.

[@uthinkuknowme2649]

Tomislav Androš Failure are legends, I think Greg is gana tour with the band

[@maximusaurelius7306]

2.35 when it just takes off, holy shit I got goosebumps! Fu*king so powerful and beautiful. Thank you “A perfect Circle”

[@ambrosiovaleriorojas3529]

This song is amazing... the lyrics, the music, the ending... ACP is like any good band that keep evolving their limits. Brilliant!

[@mao9312]

Favourite song on the album for me

[@Djuzza]

For me too.

[@FDupp-og1mi]

Probably the best song Ive heard in a decade

[@natecarpenter4206]

Me to before eat the 🐘 which has been the best advise I've had before the people that are close to me by far! but just when to begin! has me hesitating and nervous I'm alone! If U or any one truely understands myself by that statement, interpretation or view I'm here to say we are not alone! But we are many and life, opinions, views and actions will weave us together as one and alone but as many and as human!! We are not alone while being alone and as one, your views and opinions keep u thinking your nothing like me or the person living up the street but as it's always been we are off our paths and thoughts and prayers, hopes and our way of how we think is to how it is you live ,.

Love the almost Tull vibe with the vocal and lyrical aesthetic.

[@micaheaton6492]

One of the best songs of the decade

[@mr.e695]

Absolutely beautiful in the harshest of ways! I wish the last 1 minute of this song, after those lyrics crush you, was a MONTH long!! It moves my soul!!

[@AJeziorski1967]

Must've hit repeat a dozen times on this song today. It's brilliant from start to finish.

[@crow3497]

I can't help but live this album with all my heart. They are amazing in concert live. Finally calling out the blind

[@Muscle462Memory]

Pure APC ecstasy

[@pineal23]

Album just keeps on giving, my top track from the album has changed 3 or 4 times already.

[@brokenseatbelt]

pineal23 Same here. After a week it was Eat the Elephant now it's Delicious and By and Down the River.

[@adamfowler5475]

This album is a beautiful grower, frankly just like 13th step and mer De noms was. I'd expect no less.

[@roehrc]

So far, by far my favorite. Wow, goosebumps. Still working on listening to the entire album, but, wow, goosebumps!

[@seanturpin01]

❤

[@BrianBell-s3v]

There's tons of songs about right up here. Don't know many but even the old songs before this is exactly the same fits perfectly.

[@corywashburn]

I forgot how good the ending is. If you don't listen all the way through, you're missing out.

Love the creativity in this album 😍😍

[@dianamay5094]

feu are u lost?

[@areshermes1995]

There is more creativity in this album then almost any other..... Its not all about the sound, its a harmony of frequencies and meaning(MEANING) Leave the Lead state of mind and work towards the Golden consciousness. Peace

[@stillawakening4721]

Ares Hermes whoa whoa whoa, hold up. You had me up until you made it seem (probably unintentionally) that previous albums by APC had less meaning. This is simply inaccurate. Mer De Noms was just more of a personal perspective album Hollow, Thinking of you, Sleeping Beauty, etc... 13th step was as well with most if not all inspired by addiction and the problems it brings. This album seems geared toward our shared experience of existence.... Disillusioned is a perfect example of this...✌😁

[@lslewis]

Yeah, they're evolving...as every band/artist should. Enjoying this^^

[@movimentodoscacos]

&% I can explain: this album brings nothing new to the table, it is creative in a sense: Maynard and Billy never explored these sounds as much as they dod on this record, but that doesn't mean the sounds are new. Some songs are trip-hop-ish, some others more like classic rock/pop inspired and there's plenty of classical instrumentation in the record too. I don't see anything new or that hasn't been done better by other bands. But I'm totally fine if you guys like it, to each it's own. That being said, this record is objectively non-revolutionary and brings zero new things to music in general.

[@qriofficial1769]

So far, this is a solid album.

[@michaelstaton4048]

Been waiting for A Perfect Circle to grace the music scene again. Love this new music!

[@cotone00]

[@adamfowler5475]

now this song has thirteenth step elements written all over it..this gives me that same vibe and tone that 13th had.

[@AFarCryAway]

This reminds me of a classic rock song with an APC twist. I really enjoy how chill it is :D

[@tonydownsouth7070]

AFarCryAway Absolutely, my thoughts exactly. Almost like this could be a Rush cover or something similar. Idk. That's what my ears heard

[@VectorBandit]

SAME

[@Aaronyoutoobe]

Jethro Tullish

[@roehrc]

Yes! I was going to say Jethro Tull as well.

[@Aaronyoutoobe]

I can't believe there aren't 100 others.

[@ahmology]

These lyrics man :)

[@stratstrat644]

After the 2:50 mark, this really sounds like an old school Smashing Pumpkins song to me. ... James Iha's influence is clear here.

[@flynnmarland5531]

Even reminds me specifically of Lift by Radiohead at like 3:20

[@Utubesuxmycock]

yeah its the phaser in the lead guitar so fking nostalgic!

[@hopefull2070]

I admire this band, always have, always will. It must not be easy to pour your heart and soul into music, allow it to consume you and then send it off out into the world, either to be ravaged or adored. There is never quite an in-between. I suppose the main seed of truth lays within its initial structuring, each member of a perfect circle has provided their articulate and intelligent creative expression and so on that foundation alone its a very special album. In my view, art on any level keeps on transforming, it does so through unique interpretation and individual perspective. A perfect circle's artistic musical expression becomes ours through this wonderful transformation. I take great solace in the good seed of intention, no matter what, when this music was agreed upon and sent out into this world by the band it's initial intention was purposeful in its expression. I wholly admire that fact alone. ~X~

[@PaulMarsay]

In love with this song.

[@Picklescarchannel]

This is 100% like old APC, for all those complainers you must at least like this one ;) Another great track on an amazing album

[@janselarreola4819]

It totally could pass for a song from Mer de Noms

[@cajon502gt5]

As an APC Curator, yes, it pleases me, along with talktalk, Feathers, the doomed. The track Eat the Elephant is not bad at all, is slow but good, just like Blade Runner 2049. Track #5 is a disaster that they include to attract new generations I suppose.

[@pajeroberts4277]

Pickles exactly jfc stop expecting TOOL from APC. Two different bands, two different sounds. This album is amazing 😍

To anyone who feels they don't like this album........This is an APC album in every sense of it.I hear all the influences referenced by Billy, such as............Adam Ant, The Cure,David Bowie, I personally hear some cranberries in there and I was never that familiar with Sioux and the Banshee but I'm sure the influence is there!!!!!!! I don't give a dam, collateral be dammed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Coming from someone who has followed since day 1.

[@brandonjeffers7164]

Honestly I kind of expect in a year or 2 this album will be seen as better than the others. Gonna catch come flack for that but every song I've heard on this album has been ahead of its time.

[@corywashburn]

Brandon Jeffers Maybe not better than the others, but in the same tier for sure. More variety than ever but still oozing APC.

[@brandonjeffers7164]

Cory Washburn Good point. I just listened to 13th step earlier as well and realized no album can be better than that one lol but the criticism I've seen against this album will definitely diminish the more people listen to it as it's own record and not with a preconceived notion of what the album "is supposed to sound like".

[@corywashburn]

Brandon Jeffers Exactly. If the album was what I expected it to sound like, I would not like it so much. I can see a lot of people are getting hit by the shock value and not letting the music pierce through their ignorant shell.

[@brandonjeffers7164]

Cory Washburn Yea hence my year or 2 aspect of my comment lol some folks need a little longer to appreciate the art of it all. Speaking of appreciation I appreciate the intellectual, respectful response to my original comment. Good on you to disagree but like an adult lol

[@jamesmickryan982]

The ending is Epic music to my ears, takes one away....

[@Ayelis]

It makes me think of all the people who "don't give a damn" that they're on the "wrong side of history", who support someone who thought it was "inconvenient and unexpected and harrowing" to actually win a competition when he didn't think he would, and now despite his own calls for unity, he actively fights against "the rest of us" who have to deal with the "consequences" of his actions. You've made your choice and your bed, now sleep in it. Your tears will be Delicious.
