Title: Sound bleeding into one
Product review: I've been a longtime Tool fan and an admirer of MJK's vocalizations, but A Perfect Circle left me cold. Compared to the current crop of popular metal flooding the airways these days it does little to distinguish itself and while its musicianship is skilled nothing about it really screams out to be noticed. The songs follow the same formula throughout and in the end all blend into a single sound. Where are the songs that stand out? Where's this album's Prison Sex? Where's its Sober? Where's its Learn to Swim? I'm sure the Korn and Limped Biscuits fans will love it, but that's not saying a whole lot. And what is it with Maynard's bands that they don't include lyrics in their liner notes?
