Heh, have I said something out of turn? Am I thinking of The Deftones? Or are they emo? If theyāre emo, I am equally clueless.

Itās the technical, progressive nonsense with loads of different time signatures and shit. Much worse.

I remember when I first got into metal and alt rock and all that Kerrang non-jazz they were an incredibly mysterious bunch, not doing any press photos and very rarely being interviewed. It would probably have been better if theyād stuck to that tbh.
Huge band for me as a teenager. Still have a handful of tracks I really love. Maynard is, at best, a really creepy dude. Iāll give them a 4 and flounce out of the thread to avoid all the gleeful kickings theyāll get.

Never heard them, 1 for having songs called Prison Sex and Stinkfist.

Iāve tried many times. Not for me
This is fairly problematic for me, to be honest. Donāt think DiS is the place for this type of shit.

Exactly the same as this
Iāve tried with them, Iāve really tried! But I just donāt get it. Some decent hooks in there but too much meandering and some of the lyrics are just cringe.
I do really like a perfect circle though, even their new one which got slaughtered on here.
So, in summary:
A Perfect Circle >> Tool
just popping in to say itās a 5 from me, theyāve been my favourite for years. Muting this thread now. Bye.

I loved the song Sober off that first album, but the rest of it failed to hit the same level, and I gave up.
Fast forward a few years - I was at a party in Nottingham in 2001, and some maniac put Lateralus on, in full. Weād had a few āspecial cigarettesā and it made so much sense at the time.
Even in the cold light of day I think it holds up as a decent album, but the rest of their stuff doesnāt do much for me.
