Maynard's New Project - A Perfect Circle

[Mal12345]

Some simpletons thought that Maynard had gone over to the light. Not according to these lyrics:

Don't worry, Maynard is still with us.

This song is the fucking best. Political in all the ways I care about - and the riffage ain't bad either.

I really really really like it. I was excited to see that something new is out by him. Tool is meh for me but I live for APC and Puscifer.

... aaaand why am i not surprised that you're in this thread xD

God i only realised apc released this LAST YEAR and i didn't hear it until this year.

Puscifer isnt my type of thing (tool is), so i guess we aren't identical twins, but still. xD

..Anyway this song was amazing, that poignancy and irony

I just put two and two together about some of the lyrics.
"What of the pious, the pure of heart, the peaceful?
What of the meek, the mourning, and the merciful?"

The pious, the pure of heart, the peaceful, the meek, the mourning and the merciful come from the beatitudes of Christ spoken during the Sermon on the Mount.
"Blessed are the poor in spirit,
for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

Blessed are they who mourn,
for they shall be comforted.

Blessed are the meek,
for they shall inherit the earth.

Blessed are they who hunger and thirst for righteousness,
for they shall be satisfied.

Blessed are the merciful,
for they shall obtain mercy.

Blessed are the pure of heart,
for they shall see God.

Blessed are the peacemakers,
for they shall be called children of God.

Blessed are they who are persecuted for the sake of righteousness,
for theirs is the kingdom of heaven."

The lyrics have a sarcastic tone.

 

[Mal12345]

Nice alliteration in two of the lines of lyric.

 

[Quick]

I actually think I like this song better:

 

[Obfuscate]
