My Genre: Hard Alternative Rock Favorite Lyric
Around your neck and tug you to the ground
But I'm more than just a little curious
How you're plannin' to go about makin' your amends
To the dead
My Experience:
Like most other APC (A Perfect Circle) listeners, I started listening to the band because of Maynard James Keenan (Singer for other popular bands, the greatest of these being "Tool").
My friend Bomber told me to check them out because he knew I was such a big Tool fan.
I see APC as a lighter, and less angry version of Maynard's previous band. I know, I know, it's terrible for me to say something like that, but it's just how I view them.
I find the lyrics simply incredible, especially songs like "The Noose" where Maynard describes someone who has obviously committed an atrocious murder, but has been reborn spiritually (Most likely through Christianity).
He uses the Metaphor of a Halo to describe his reformation, but then says "And not to pull your halo down, Around your neck and tug you to the ground" to describe it turning into "The Noose".
Essentially he is saying that, just because you have made peace in your own mind for the wrong things you have done, doesn't mean the people you killed will be brought back, nor does it mean you won't have any punishment.
It is a powerful message delivered through metaphor. Exactly what you can expect from A Perfect Circle.
- Incredible Lyrics
- Often uses alternative tunings
- Simply Stunning Lyrics, often using well-thought-out metaphors.
- Sometimes Progressive, sometimes not.
- Maynard's voice is, obviously, perfect
