Maynard James Keenan never sits still. Between Tool headlining festivals this year and Puscifer's Normal landing back in February, you'd think the guy would rest. He doesn't.
Now A Perfect Circle is back, and it's officially a duo: Keenan alongside guitarist Billy Howerdel. They teased the reunion earlier with "Starless," a rock radio belter that hit in May. This time they're going bigger. New track "To Whom It May Concern" arrives with a tour announcement, and it's a moment that fans have waited on for years.
APC always operated on their own clock. Remember the gap between Thirteenth Step in 2003 and Eat the Elephant in 2018? Patience is baked into this band's DNA. The payoff tends to be worth it, and this new gem carries that same slow burn tension that made "The Outsider" and "Judith" such killers.
Two new tracks in one year. A tour on the horizon. A Perfect Circle are moving, and the momentum feels real.
