A Perfect Circle - Get The Lead Out [Audio]

[@freckleface1986]

This would be the coolest Bond song

[@MetalMan2k]

"Get the Lead out. Suck it up, buttter cup.....You got places to be." - Maynards vocals always amaze. Especially this part.

[@jenniferfinklea2209]

Years since this released... I cannot tell you how relevant all of this still feels. What an absolute genius songwriter. Sure, some may not like this music, but, please look at the lyrics. I LOVE this album and the lyrics are spot on...as usual.

[@mertmunson1417]

I am in love with all of it my friend!

[@mamaharumi]

Lyrics don't matter much to me, I just want music to sound good. That's why I like maynard so much - his voice just sounds good. I love this album though, probably my favorite from APC. I know people don't like it but people also criticised 10,000 days which is my favorite album of all time.

[@praszu]

Yeah 3 years since release.

[@TheRealMadbeatle]

come on dude, this is kinda new lol.

[@juggalette331]

"suck it up, buttercup" lol. that's all I can do is laugh at that he put that in there. Love this group and all his others.

[@sehlordhorr8540]

I was sweating it, not knowing if I was digging this song, then I heard what you typed in and, now, I’m as calm as cookies in cream :)

[@freckleface1986]

I think it's a dig at the "gun up buttercup" folks. "Get the lead out"

[@daBak93]

I dunno why, but I like it the more I listen to it.

[@kaisersosay3387]

daBak93 I agree. 👌

I think thats a sign of good music ;)

Per other comments... if you feel this album is a bit " different " or "softer" than you had wished.. keep listening,with every play it will grow on you gracefully... so beautiful

[@CorpsesReborn]

This song 5 years down the line is like screaming.

[@TonyStewartKY]

This entire album is amazing and Pucisfers last album was a masterpiece. it seems that anything Maynard touches turns into fine wine.

[@roehrc]

I see what you did there...

[@upsetupsetmace8379]

This album is a masterpiece what a blessing to be alive with these guys ✌

[@monasaid1839]

APC new album reflects the mental and spiritual maturity after the turmoil, rebellion and anger. I liked the old albums and I like the new one that is totally different in its essence. It’s not angry, it consoles, it reminds us to look around and understand we’re not alone.

[@wendymaduro1546]

This album is a bit strange. I feel like I’m experiencing some sort of delayed gratification. The more I sat and listened and experienced the music on a visceral level, the more I noticed I understood and loved it. It wasn’t love at first listen, it took time, time to process and chew on it and sleep on it. A wonderful album

[@Hammerpowah]

Real art requires time to understand it well enough, when i was shown with tool and APC i was really confused about kind of the music it was, after all i'm also big fan of this wierd creations of these minds

[@dimitarkanev8910]

All truly masterful albums are like that, it takes time to understand it, to feel it, to get used to the different new sound and experimentations. Then with every listen you discover more and more and it gets better and better. Many different feeling goes through you, many interpretations many meanings you can even find very little sounds added that you hear for the first time... Amazing...

[@aliceinf-ingwonderland8152]

Exactly. I feel the same way.

[@brandilong1972]

@@dimitarkanev8910 I couldn't have said it better myself!

[@hitbox524]

I feel like an angry tool fan when Maynard’s style changed, I can’t appreciate this as much as older a perfect circle, delicious is an incredible song though from this album.

[@willow9625]

For some reason this is the song i listen to most of the album. Not sure why but it just seems like the strongest song for me.

[@Keirfey]

This song embodies the maddening pressure of time as regards our lack of love towards each other. They all kinda do (songs), but this one is direct...

[@HermeticAscetic22]

The new album is riveting! It continues to grow on me with every listen. It's great to be able to listen to new music from APC after so many years. :)

[@merkabertdesigns9458]

Jayansh Singh same with me. Took me a few listens for it to grow on me.

[@merkabertdesigns9458]

Mutual Assured Destruction You're just mad because APC didn't remake an old record. We can see how far it got Breaking Benjamin. Same sounding shit.

[@roehrc]

Agreed. I really wasn’t sure about it at first, but now am eager to buy the album. I feel it’s a masterpiece actually, but it took a while to get to this point.

[@JimmyC74]

Is it crazy to listen to the same song over and over and over?

[@winteronmercury1]

This song feels so good after the emotional rollercoaster of the rest of this album. I've definitely listened to the whole thing more than 50 times. Different from their older stuff, same beautiful gravitas.

[@JoeyRagolia]

I love this song. It's so dynamic and unpredictable, yet peaceful.

[@TheAlmightyFoo]

Joey R it literally doesn't change the rhythm or beat throughout the entirety of the song. Sure... Totally unpredictable.

[@JoeyRagolia]

that's your opinion. :)

[@TheAlmightyFoo]

Joey R Sure. But it's also fact. The song's structure has little to no movement and the parts don't change... Ever. It's as much of an opinion as it is to state "if I jump, I'll fall back down towards the Earth"

[@areshermes1995]

The absolute meaning behind every song makes it more than music! People need to hear this!!!!

[@chastenchilders6353]

Took till 2020 to truly appreciate this album and these songs. Huge growers

[@gbo9816]

A Perfect Circle did exactly what they said they were gonna do. Just take the step take the swing take the bite and go all in 👏🏻👏🏻

[@MrJackstar123]

Seems like a lot of people always cloud their own personal opinions about a band's new album by letting nostalgia get in the way. There's way too many people criticizing stuff through comparison instead of looking at something as its own thing. Personally, when a band I like that I consider to have a lot of talent comes out with a new album, I'm hoping its going to sound different from their previous stuff. I don't want talent to be wasted on the same sound over and over, I wanna know what else they can do.

[@jamesmitchell2114]

Zylph right on my friend.

[@zackjoseph9127]

Yeah but you gotta stay true to the bands orogional style a little bit. Tool evolved but with the original style intact. This is... a dissapointimg and seemingly soulless endeavor

[@burnintrees420]

Member berries agree lol

[@xXskyanethiaXx]

Maybe. I still feel their music will never be as good as their first two albums. I understand they're trying different styles....I just wish they could make the same level of amazing music that they used to.

[@MirrorHeadz_Music]

@Zylph This is pretty evolved and better than other music out right now. You have no idea what you're talking about.

[@NicolasBeyl]

Just genius, the whole album is beautiful, original , fresh, I like guys taking risks

[@jamessouza7065]

You like what I tell you to like.

[@hexnotic]

I am SO grateful that I got turned on to APC last year after going down the TOOL rabbit hole. Yeah I was extremely late to the party, but I was able to avoid having 14 years of baggage waiting for new tunes to be released. MJK is a picky as hell artist, and his attention to detail has never been lacking. The people that he works with are equally talented in the same sense, and they are all 100% in tune with each other while playing a set. These dudes know exactly what they are doing here, and they know exactly what they wanted out of this album. Maynard is showing off his wide range of vocals within the tracks, and his emoting with the phrasing has only been sharpened with age. He knows his limits, and sticks to them. Billy has most likely had some of these tunes underneath his hat for some time now, and I'm sure it was no easy feat to rework them to what they are here. The writing in this whole album is being interpreted every which way, but if you step outside yourself getting the message is fairly easy. The writing is slightly cryptic as always, but if you have been following the MJK/ TOOL/APC/ Puscifer train for the past year or two then everything leading up to this makes a lot more sense. Go back, and listen very carefully to interviews with Maynard in his 50s. There's something special to learn here folks. I showed up for the insights, and the wonderful vibes that this music provides. I did not show up because my expectations of what a 14 year sequel may sound like. The lyrics in this very song blatantly state: No time to coddle you. So figure it out for yourself what all of this means, and in the process support the musicians, and learn something productive about yourselves.

[@gearshiftdeftone]

I enjoyed reading this

[@462-u8w]

@@gearshiftdeftone yes

[@nikodemvankenobi]

The song bangs, you have to drop your expectations, just because this isn't their usual sound, doesn't mean it blows.

[@AquariusC]

"This music is only enjoyable if you have no expectations". Wow. Second time I have heard that. Eating shit follows the same principle. It tastes great if you have no expectations!

[@nikodemvankenobi]

C F This isn't what i said, at all, lol. Maybe it phrased it poorly, excuse me then. What i meant is, we shouldn't cross it off, just because it's not their usual sound, just because it's got something from the R&B genre, doesn't mean it blows.

[@MineCraftTimezzz]

i like the new sound, a good artist can change and adapt sound to keep fans interested. nobody wants a repeat of stuff like breaking Benjamin again. bands like korn changed sound basically every album and still is staying relevant.

[@MineCraftTimezzz]

Amir Frost variety is the spice of life, life is too long to do one sound

[@stabenheimer]

Desmond Darst korn is still relevant? in what country?

[@rc4529]

THIS SONG IS DOPE!!! SO HAPPY TO SEE APC OWNING THE MAINSTREAM SOUND AND MAKING IT SIGNIFICANT

[@StrangeMuzikFan]

APC tracks are aces for the soul when your coming down.

[@controlfreak110]

This track parallels really with some of the slower emotive tracks. “When the levee breaks” could be play right before this and mesh fine. Subtle track which is a usual trope with APC.

[@BrunoSantos-vv3iq]

Beautiful, listen 5 times and u will love it

[@mr.e695]

This is by FAR, the most important album Maynard has ever been a part of. Mature, conscious, and full of light for the world at crucial time in our evolution, or lack thereof. It may not be what most "fans" are used to, but innovators are always ridiculed. People will be forced to open their eyes wide for this. The album transcends music and art, with some of the most important spiritual messages that so desperately need to be heard. I highly encourage people to share the album with loved ones, and "walk them through it" if necessary. Much love

This one reminds me of alt-J. Anyone else getting that vibe? Also... i love this album, not a let down at all, it's very different, but that's a great thing! Congrats on what you have made MJK and APC, looking forward to seeing you in June!

[@edgarhons]

I'm just now getting into A Perfect Circle and have now completed their four studio albums. I suppose for long-time fans who weight the old albums greater, the evolution is disappointing. But to judge this band as four albums at once, it's quite a cool progression they've made and I'm glad I didn't listen to four albums of the same stuff over and over. I want bands to build a sound and then see how far that sound can go, and it's been a pleasure listening to APC's work.
