I Was Asked To Listen To The Band Puscifer (First Reaction)

[@justmejoy124]

Though my initial thought was this was spelled Purifier lol I finally caught that that lil devil was spelled Pusifer instead lol tho at first I was brought peace thinking otherwise. All puns intended lol

[@justmejoy124]

Signed by Punifier haha

[@rcstraka]

Check out the long version of Conditions of My Parole

[@ThatMuhfugger420]

Some others u need to add to your Puscifer playlist are Cuntry Boner (Evil Joe Baressi mix), Green Valley, Tiny Monsters, Oceans, Rev 22:20, The Underwhelming, Tumbleweed and Momma Sed. Those are all some of my favorites and I know you'll enjoy them

[@bubbasboyngirl]

It is utterly amazing that Maynard has been at the top of the game for 30 plus years. Three different bands, three different styles, all gold! He is the Mozart of the modern era.

[@thomperkins]

Facts! I truly believe that he is a true renaissance man.

[@terryatkinson9323]

Have you aver heard of Mike Patton? Maynard and Patton are both creative beasts that use different bands for expressing different ideas.

[@thomperkins]

@@terryatkinson9323 wasn’t he with Faith No More? He’s great.

[@CryptoReikiDaddy]

Brilliant minds think alike. Great comparison. :)

[@tteious]

Exactly! Even Eat The Elephant by APC, that people seemed to not enjoy so much, has some incredible songs.

[@Soljarag5]

I saw this live, I was in the front row and right at the climax of the song, Carina Round (the female singer) was directly in front of me and was reaching out in the the crowd. A top 5 moment of my entire life

[@jeffhelton3364]

Also saw them live last fall in San Diego County. I openly wept during the song. Such an amazing ensemble of artists.

[@iisotter8944]

Seeing them in July, in the UK, bought tickets 30 seconds after release, they are still not sold out, and I am really shocked. Seen Tool, APC a bunch of times, not seen Puscifer yet ,so good to know I will not be disappointed.

[@mikerizzle1]

She’s awesome. I met her a couple times in the lobby after the show.

[@keithhutchins8803]

@@jeffhelton3364 I was there front row in my wheelchair!

[@OneDayOfPiece]

I just saw them at welcome to Rockville what an amazing concert. And that same weekend Tool. Best festival I've been to 🤘

[@TheHallbjorn]

Love the condescension line, and the "remedy" prescribed here is a good old-fashioned knuckle sandwich. One of my all-time favorite songs and definitely a top 'pump-up' track.

[@an7ici7izen64]

Grand Canyon, The Arsonist, The Humbling River, Momma Sed... Puscifer has an amazing list of tracks. Ms Carina Round & Maynard's harmonies are MF ethereal.

[@lonelyearthgirl2247]

yes!!!!^^^

[@PatriciaGass-hc3cu]

Grand canyon ans Green Valley

[@lunarlia123]

The Humbling River has a completely different feel from most of the Puscifer songs. I used to listen to that song a lot with a friend while he was passing from cancer at 33. It’s not a hard hitting song, but hits all my emotional buttons.

[@cadleo]

Queen B, Vagina Mine, Humbling River, The Mission, Green Valley, Tiny Monsters... So many good choices from Puscifer EDIT: Im so glad I was wrong and you really grooved on this tune. The rest of the Puscifer catalog (except the most recent LP) is jam packed with more of the same. The live video cd he puts out is amazing, half live show half theatrics.

[@johnwilson1794]

Why does no one ever say Potions? I think it's a banger and one of their best.

[@ambiophonic]

​@@johnwilson1794potions

[@cadleo]

@@johnwilson1794 Potions is also a great one. There are so many I just listed the first half dozen I thought of lol Potions rocks though

[@ImAcoastpedder]

Finally got to see Puscifer for the first time on my birthday this past October. What an AMAZING show ! Never experienced a show like that. Brought my 2 teenage kids with me. They were amazed even having seen TOOL just months earlier.

[@laurabuer4714]

I have yet to see Puscifer, but I will see Tool again this coming October. 😁

[@ethosfm1262]

Puscifer live is Peak Maynard in my opinion! Seen Puscifer three times (each show they've played in Houston) and they are my favorite Maynard project to see live as much as I love Tool.

[@johnnyrokkit]

❤ Carina Round - backup singer in Tears for Fears among other things. An amazing talent in her own right, and a stellar counterpart to Maynard.

[@throneborn]

Man! So glad to see this reaction. I have to recommend Bullet Train to Iowa for your next reaction from them!

[@jacobnorman2292]

These guys live are incredible!!!!

[@scottspears9347]

I saw Puscifer live back in November and they were amazing

[@m.ericwatson968]

Puscifer did a streaming event of "Existential Reckoning" live at Arcosanti, Arizona, October 30, 2020, it was a prerecorded and edited set of performances but they recorded everything live in the Arizona desert, it is a really cool performance, Maynard and Carina's characters are odd, like they're alien "Men In Black" kind of thing'. Maynard's always had a fascination with aliens and conspiracy theories, he resides in Jerome, Az. at the co-op vineyard Caduceus Cellars, far from the larger population, he's not a "people person" haha

[@riznob10000]

Iirc, Merkin Vineyards is where the grapes are grown, and Caduceus Cellars is the name the wine is bottled and sold under. I picked up a bottle of dark red last year, and it was very very nice.

[@BrentLonkey]

I believe the track Potions is from the much rumored side project of Maynard and Trent Reznor's band called Tapeworm. So that might be worth checking out.

[@mercychoke4475]

🎯

[@TheNewAmericanMedia]

Can you elaborate on that?

[@BrentLonkey]

@@TheNewAmericanMedia back in the 90's trent(nin) and maynard(tool) formed a band called Tapeworm, the only thing to ever get leaked from that project has been Maynard redoing the songs for either Perfect Circle or Puscifer.

[@bretthurd8920]

Agostina, The Mission, Horizons, Bullet Train to Iowa, Momma Sed, Man Overboard, Potions, or The Underwhelming would all be great next imo. Glad to see you dive deeper into Puscifer!

[@MostlyCloudy]

the whole Existential Reckoning album is so fucking good.

[@chriswebb7822]

absolutely amazing album, that I thought I wouldn't love after the 1st listen..

[@cadleo]

I think its the worst thing they put out with only 1-2 decent tracks. Everything else on every other LP is fire though.

[@LemonCups]

By far their best offering to date

[@Remykapel]

@@cadleo u will understand it later -bet Its like tool

[@cadleo]

@@Remykapel I understand it fine, it sucks. It has absolutely none of the originality or diversity of sound that their other LPs all have. Its bland, studio sterile crap.

[@horrorqueen-ze9tm]

The thing with Puscifer's sound I noticed is that every song sounds like it's from a different genre almost. You never know what each song is going to sound like. My favorite song of theirs though is " The Mission (M is for milla)" . Maynard's vocals pair so well with Milla's. That's Milla Jovovich from the Resident Evil movies.

[@PowderedToastMan420]

You are in for a treat.

[@DarinNiday]

this band just gets better and better...this is my fav track i think, but so many good ones. solid reacts as always, thanks for the content!

[@senecalouck2335]

Been waiting patiently for this moment. Long time Tool fan that prefers Puscifer most days of the week.

[@Djdbot24]

I saw them on this tour, and they performed in a wrestling ring. They had wrestling matches in between the songs. It was crazy!

[@terribleterrier1685]

Humbling River is haunting and beautiful. Been watching you since you started, I think you'd really like it.

[@lecancellieri]

Their song "Humbling River" is beautiful!

[@scooterreacts1822]

Amazing band!!!.. Enjoy the ride with Puscifer bro!

[@JohnSmith-me4ik]

Th Remedy! Finally! Please do Bedlamite next

[@dannycarter5299]

So glad you liked this song ! If you haven’t done "mama sed" or “conditions of my parole “ ! The live version of this song is available and btw the lady is Carina Round

[@crystalscolza1663]

Gotta do the directors cut of condition's of my parole though.. hilarious! It's like a little movie with it.

[@mrdude49]

He did Momma Sed, but that new version they did fuckin slays and should absolutely be on Polo's list!!!

[@DELTA_N9NE]

The Arsonist is another banger you should check out and Humbling river.

[@ericmichael1964]

Favorite Puscifer tune. I love the message...

[@betweentheair]

Autumn is a dope song

[@lihil73602]

Love your reaction to this band! You should check out "The humbling river" and "Horizons"!!!

[@juggalonumber27]

DUDE, you MUST do Conditions of My Parole!

[@harbinger_9152]

Two of my fav bands in a row?? POLO, you spoil me.

[@ddconger1]

Grand Canyon. Going to be cool watching you go on this Puscifer journey.

[@caseyafternoon3545]

A perfect circle - talktalk. I know you’re gonna love it 🙏

[@sublimeking9517]

Also I would love to see you do Puscifier-M is for Milla. Milla Jovovich from Resident evil series does vocals on it with Maynard and it’s amazing.

[@MikeCalhoun]

Milla's voice makes that track.

Telling ghosts is a great track

Puscifer & A Perfect Circle are touring for Maynard's bday next month? I'm fkng going. Seen all 3 of the bands Maynard is in 'T00L' dozens of times & always amazing

[@jesseturnip]

Puscifer is all over the map from country style to dubstep remixes, enjoy

[@mikerizzle1]

Puscifer is so good. Seen them live about 6 times. They always have a good show

[@anthonyrollins9825]

my fav line - you speak like someone thats never been smacked in the f@ckin mouth thats ok we have the REMEDY you speak like someone thats never been knocked the f@ck out but we have your REMEDY....... absolute fire

[@williamost9083]

The Humbling River is an absolutely perfect track, no kidding. Check it out!

[@MelissaBergIllustration]

I love all of Puscifer, but the album that introduced me to them and is my favorite is Conditions of my Parole, the whole album is amazing.

[@TheNewAmericanMedia]

Front to back, like the Weezer blue album. Both are masterpieces.

[@HopeUnger-r7f]

Love that one

[@kentmains7763]

If you get to see them live it is a must-see show!

[@Maltozombie]

Bedlamite from the Arcosanti show please! also Postulous is an absolute banger from their most recent album.

[@MitigateOurRuin]

My favorite Puscifer song!!

[@thombrady420]

I got to see them them four times when my buddy was playing bass for them. They're an incredible live band.

[@averagebear5889]

Found this band today. Momma Sed then Remedy. So good, must hear more...NOW!

[@janellebloomberg35]

Totally check out Bedlamite next by Puscifer..

[@kennethroth2823]

I'm seeing them on June 3rd and I can't wait to see them!

[@HUSKIIII]

Humbling river! Dear brother! Also pet and the hollow from APC!

[@greggladson8127]

Maynard is everywhere, and it’s an awesome thing.

[@johnjohn37371]

Carina's voice still gives me chills....check out The Humbling River...

[@harbinger_9152]

*Potions* !! Trent Reznor collaboration. It technically was at the start of Puscifer.

[@jarenvarney8094]

man! everything this band has put out is amazing! listen to all of it lol

[@HopeUnger-r7f]

My second fav song from this band.

[@thetourist4926]

Saw them on this tour. They had a wresting ring on stage where Maynard and corina stood but also had 4 luchadors that wrestled during parts of the show.

[@mercychoke4475]

Thank God! I've been waiting for you do do this. Puscifer is fkn AWESOME. Will blow your mind! Go down the rabbit hole... it'll be one of the very best things you'll ever do! 🤯🧠💨 🐇🕳🎭>🤘

[@acousticscarab]

Humbling River or Momma Sed. You gotta do one of those next, if not both. Absolute bangers and you'll love them if you loved this. Glad you're getting into them. Keep the videos coming!

[@boomshakalaka8457]

Please listen to “Grand Canyon” and “Green Valley” Both very good songs by this band

[@laurabuer4714]

Ok, Momma Sed or Conditions of My Parole. I'll buy you more coffee. 😁

[@nmchaser]

Conditions of My Parole is one of my favorite songs... Such a great track

[@laurabuer4714]

You have to pair it with the official video. Absolutely hilarious and amazing! 😅

[@mercychoke4475]

Gotta do the Director's Cut version/video of CoMP. Fkn HILARIOUS. Song rocks hard, one of my favorites, but there are SO many... 🎯

[@timmiller2913]

Humbling River is amazing. The directors cut video for Conditions if my Parole will have you dying of laughter. Bullet Train to Iowa is a fun track also

[@Dan-ji4db]

Great song, next PLEASE do Grand Canyon

[@steventheurer6956]

My first exposure to Puscifer was “Cuntry Boner”. Not the best song of theirs but it’s hilarious. I think my favorite is “Potions” and I’m pretty sure that’s a collab with Trent Reznor, if I’m not mistaken.

[@pablozee6359]

Yep, this song still hits. This band is straight magic. If you want to be even more impressed with what Maynard is all about, check the KZbin video series of Maynard on work. It made me make more of an effort to seek out friction in my life and truly embracing effort and process.

[@chadwilson2176]

There is a live version with Maynard and Carina in front of the wrestling ring. They had luchador's wrestle during the show. I saw them in Texas and I thought I was at the wrong event. There was actual wrestling matches before the concert started.

[@Lostrelic]

Conditions of my parole (the directors cut) great tune, fun video and a whole other side of him

[@pamb440]

Polo, I made this comment a little over a week ago when you asked for Puscifer & A Perfect Circle recommendations, listen to The Remedy by Puscifer! So glad you finally did and loved it. I knew you would. You should also check out Conditions Of My Parole (This song is just pure fun and you know Maynard had a blast with it from the video perspective and the lyrics) The Humbling River and Potions - Deliverance Mix. Peace ✌

[@sharilynbratton6476]

One of my top Puscifer songs, though I admit I haven't heard ALL of their songs yet!

[@angelabordack]

Here we go!!!!

[@benjaminburris8982]

Humbling River. Monsoon, The Mission, Horizons, Man over Board. So in listened to this track everyday for months after it came out, it so groovy. When it was pointed out that it is in 5/4 time, it just blew opened my mind. Every time I sit at a drum set, ince then I have to play in 5/4, at least a little. Keep going. Spiral Out

[@ValereeSayre]

"Queen B", "Blue Movies" "The Mission (ft Milla Milla Jovovich) are all fantastic.

[@jasonb3908]

Haven't even watched this yet but wanted to say I've been waiting for it and glad you enjoyed it, because I know there is no way you didn't like this lol

[@9milli320]

I'm really surprised there are only 1k+ likes to this!

One of my favorites outside of this one is The Humbling River. Check it out!

[@justintime1234]

I love how making the 4Runner is the ultimate approval. ❤

[@biirdman_]

I love this track and it was my introduction to the experience of Puscifer. Ive never connnected with a band so much on so many levels. I would recommend the track "A Singularity" off of their Existential reckoning album. Love the raw emotion in that track. Cheers!

[@timhendricks8913]

I was watching Maynard on Steve o's podcast. Hopped off that to check this out.

[@plick2003]

Humbling River for sure!

[@louispouler6104]

"Potions" is absolutely the next track you should do from Puscifer. I would also accept "Humbling River"

[@Viccerz]

You gotta check out Humbling River, it's one of Maynard's best vocal performances

[@Jadedxx]

💯

[@CrispyVisionStudios]

Definitely have to listen to bullet train to iowa off their latest album existential reckoning. The list of great songs is massive from them.

[@RomanGrillitsch]

So long and thanks for all the fish

[@garrettmarshall1288]

I knew you’d like this one. I’m getting a taste for what you like.✌️

Maynard incoming

[@timothyneidholdt6807]

Tumbleweed is great as well

[@ryanmustain6545]

My first Maynard show was this tour. They had a full wrestling ring setup, with Lucha Libre wrestlers performing in between songs. The whole show was art. I love Autumn from this same album. You need to listen to Indigo Children (JLE Dub Mix) in the 4Runner assuming you have some low end to thump.

[@brandonboucher7090]

This songs dope

[@awalker8084]

Love it Polo

[@Ms.GreenJeans]

Gotta check out A Perfect Circle 3 libras live on Leno. Amazing! Puscifer is killer. Maynard could sing me ikea instructions & it would sound rockin.

[@Cosmic_Observer33]

That drop really is so good lol

[@PowderedToastMan420]

Break out the luchadores.

[@joeycruz7667]

To me, this song is basically a rock n roll diss track. :D Since you've also been checking out Nine Inch Nails, you might be interested to know Trent Reznor and Maynard had a short-lived collaboration project together called "Tapeworm." They never released any official Tapeworm tracks, BUT Maynard did flesh out two songs they had co-written and release those. One was the song "Passive" for A Perfect Circle. The other was the song "Potions" for Puscifer, which he gave to Reznor as a wedding gift. Highly recommend both of those tracks!

[@UMPeeps1348]

Puscifer is incredible man!!! Def would love to see ya checkout Autumn, Bullet Train to Iowa, Potions, Bedlamite, Horizons, and Personal Prometheus

[@sublimeking9517]

Love the tool and APC and Puscifier reactions. The most popular next Puscifier song would be Conditions of my Parole. great Song. My favorite song, The humbling River. But that’s a slower one maybe do more APC first before you try that.

[@salsashark7386]

This is my favorite Puscifer track but a close second is Simultaneous it begins with a spoken word part that gives me chills and when the music drops its fire hope you get a chance to check it out

[@thepooz7205]

I love Simultaneous, but don’t think it is a good recommendation for a reaction.

[@salsashark7386]

Hey art is art, I think it's a good track I'm curious to see what he thinks of it, that's why we're here isn't it, let Polo be the judge.

[@themartyr9086]

“Tiny Monsters” 😊

[@andimetrum]

This f’in band… songs of sweeping beauty. Songs of stark eloquence. Aggression. Vulgarity. Humanity. The first Pucifer album I bought was at Best Buy. I had to walk up to a 17 year old girl at the checkout stand and purchase a CD called “V is for Vagina”… #MaynardWon Love you Polo. Keep on.

[@scottst1112]

Have you got into A Perfect Circle, yet? If not a song that, to me, blends all 3 bands Maynard vocals in,is Hourglass. One of, if not, my favorite song he has taken part in throughout all of his bands.

[@Grim-zg8ps]

Humble River!!!!!
