Title: Outstanding
Review: Naysayers only criticize this album because they know the unbelievable music Maynard James Keenan and friends have put out and hold them to the highest possible standard. This album is more musical than most anything you'd hear on the radio today. It is vastly different from Mer de Noms, which is another reason people say bad things about it. A lot of people don't like their bands to change. But I love evolution. I think its a truly fantastic album. I've listened to it over and over again and still love it. The emotional intensity of Noose is palpable, and songs like Vanishing and Gravity give me chills every time I hear them, much like Orestes from Mer de Noms. Not many of the songs I would call "single" material. Most of them are winding journeys of beautiful music but they aren't tight little packages that the radio likes, with the exception of Weak and Powerless and maybe Pet.This album reassures me that A Perfect Circle is second only to Tool in modern artistic rock.
