Maynard James Keenan on the Many Mysteries of Puscifer

[@yeetfeet1878]

Maynard is one of my favorite musicians, artist, inspirations, and people.

[@isaacbranch6244]

Parabola saved my life

[@yeetfeet1878]

@@isaacbranch6244 Lateralus saved mine. And many other tool songs of course

[@andrewhigdon8346]

I saw Puscifer live on the Conditions of My Parole tour. Awesome. It was presented just as he described the Talking Heads show. And I always wondered where he got the idea. And being a live sound engineer I was stunned by all the technical planning needed and implemented for this show. It was a large theater/hall stage, empty but for Corrina and Maynard singing upstage center, just two mic stands and the two of them. Then, over a short time, came the mini Airstream, pulled by hand, and out came the guitar player and his rig, a campfire, grill, chairs, the works, while upstage left a hay wagon rolled out, again, pulled by hand, and I think it had the kit on it, plus maybe the bass rig, but bottom line was that we, the whole audience, watched a stage production get built in real time before our eyes while simultaneously performing without any gap in music and also blowing our minds with the beautiful Americana feel yet making a parody of the whole moronic, ignorant, undereducated, “ignorance is bliss” shone clear as an azure sky. Puscifer. Yes.

[@biskack4367]

i saw that show in St. Louis. Not only was it amazing to see the set come together, but the story he told during that setup, was a beautiful thing

[@OhDeviantOne]

Saw this in Las Vegas. One of my all time favorite live performances.

[@theturtleclub4963]

Just saw Puscifer and Tool in the same weekend about a month and a half ago, the only thing that would have made it better would have been for A Perfect Circle to have played as well. Still an absolutely epic fucking weekend.

[@petermerkin7672]

Puscifer is getting some recognition...finally. how they have managed to put out such good music and stay under the radar seems by design perhaps.

[@EarthSurferUSA]

Unless he "tows the line" the industry will ignore him. That is just the way propaganda works, and the entertainment industry is 95% anti-American values propaganda. This is not new in the USA, but it has grown since the mass usage of the Radio and TV. This is just a possibility in my mind; If Maynard did not sense something is wrong in the entertainment industry, he would not have started a vineyard, (a way out).

@cynthiamay your comment was way more diplomatic than mine so I ended up deleting mine . Freaking TOOL army. Nothing is good enough for them! even a new TOOL album. Just like Eminem's Stans! No other rapper could possibly be at the RAP GOD EMINEM!! HA Tool is one of my favez but fortunately I understand every song cant be 15 mins worth of sick bass, drum and guitar solos. Unless its TOOL. TOOL ARMY forgets other music w/in that geNRE exists or is EVEN Allowed. Music SNOBERY!! & TUNNEL VISION . ANYWAYS yeah ego open mindedness.

[@andrewhigdon8346]

@@ryanduray1 don’t be an idiot, the virus is real, plenty of people are still dying, and I make my living from live music, so I’m the LAST person on earth who wants things to be “locked down” or even need “social distancing”. I hate it. The masks drive me crazy. Trust me, my life has been excruciatingly difficult over the last year plus. I want and need live music, it is my meal ticket, I’m a live sound engineer and own my own small sound company, and my future is so uncertain I can barely think about it. But that doesn’t make the virus any less real. And until we all do our best to prevent the spread of this plague, it will be with us indefinitely. If we were to all follow the CDC guidelines, we could be back to normal in less than six months. With all the naysaying deniers such as yourself, we will never be back to normal. Get a grip on reality. You can’t just wish away this one.

[@ryanduray1]

@@andrewhigdon8346 Did you even read my comment? Where did I deny the existence of the virus? All I said was that the panic will go on for several more years. They're already saying that vaccines won't provide a return to normalcy. I feel horribly for people whose livelihoods have been destroyed by all this, yourself included. However, Texas and Florida are wide open for live music, at least at smaller venues. Maybe other states will follow their lead, maybe they won't. If densely populated states like Texas and Florida can fill baseball stadiums and music venues without having the virus run out of control, then there's really no excuse for other states not to open back up. But, one team of politicians can't possibly admit that the other team might be right about something. I never once denied the virus, but I'm extremely skeptical towards how it has been handled.

[@ryanduray1]

@@andrewhigdon8346 Exactly. The level of blind obedience our society is showing towards our government continues to amaze me. One example is fauci initially saying that masks are completely useless, then later saying that wearing two masks is "just common sense". These people closed every gym, but the liquor stores remained wide open. I could go on and on about the insanity that has been eaten up by the people, but I wouldn't be telling you anything you don't already know. It's nice to see some people who don't just believe everything they're told and follow blindly. This entire situation stopped making sense a long time ago.

@@NooDLES411911 Most human evolution of the mind came from the USA, (because it was citizens of the USA who were allowed to think and achieve, creating our free enterprise system), and I am sorry to tell you, your cell phone, (technology sold to us by bad people), does not make you free to continue. Mankind reached it's peak around 1913, (not talking about technology, but the right to compete), and it was the USA. That was about the time the progressive movement entered the USA, (German economic professors to start. Richard Eli being one), and we started letting government take over and destroy just about anything we built. Anybody want to buy a restaurant now? (one tiny example). Me?

I think that is a interesting idea, revamping some work that was already published, (published as a sequel of sorts?). As we get older, we never stop learning things as we get better at figuring out reality, (which we can if we "think" about it, defines us as human). Revamping your previous work will actually show the evolution of your mind. That is interesting and it can be very noble and powerful,---if the mind is going in a rational direction. We don't make up reality, (it kicks our butts when we try). It is what it is, so we can discover it. Wow. Leave it to Jim to find a "break through". I am actually a bit overwhelmed by the potential.

[@EarthSurferUSA]

A 10 song album of revamped past published songs, (things you want to change), with the title of the album "Evolution of a mind. Vol.1" OK, 12 songs.

Existential Reckoning is definitely different, but not in a bad way at all it’s a great album.

My first listen to the album left me feeling meh, but after seeing them live and then going back to listen a year later its so amazing, peak music imo, peak in its own way though, cause they are very unique. The sound design, the way it sounds through good headphones, is pretty unmatched. And the concert felt like a psychedelic trip even though i was completely sober.
