Hi all, I've recently gotten very into this very interesting and original band. Can anyone tell me are they playing anywhere on our fair wee Isle any time soon? Don't they have a new album out too? By the way I'm going to cheekily drop this in even though I shouldn't: any musicians into them around Mayo area and are interested in forming band to play similar gimme msg. (tsk tsk shame on me using the soap box for an obvious musicians wanted/for sale post!)

My my where have you been for the last 4 years. A Perfect Circle is a side project of the band Tool, or at least their lead singer and chief sound tech. Their first record, "Mers De Nom" is pretty much a tour de force of sound. It moves from angry to smooth to disjointed to heart wrenching and is a piece of goddam artwork. I'd imagine you'd be able to pick it up cheap anywhere. The second record, which I cant think of the name of, is more mellow. It's not as dark as the first but it's still good. It's slightly, PJ Harvey/Nick Cave-ish in mood. I think they've released a third record but I cant be sure. It's doubtful that A Perfect Circle would play Ireland unless it was part of a festival. They're one of those cult bands that people adore and it's kinda cool to have their records in your collection. Anyway, it took Tool almost 10 years to play ireland. I'd expect the same from A Perfect Circle.
