Last weekend I was introduced to some A Perfect Circle stuff as well as some Tool. I was never a Tool fan (had something to do with the people wearing the T-shirts, I just thought they where another buttrock band or something) but, I have to say that for pure musicianship, Tool and A Perfect Circle are really freaking good! I was pretty amazed at the level of detail it sounded like went into the music and recording. Not exactly my style of music, but I really dig both Tool and A Perfect Circle. Proceed with the chlorophil!

Are you shure we're talking about the same band?
I meant the Death Metal band with orchestra and Choir from Munich (www.haggard.de). I only knew, they where seen and heared in Mexico, Germany and eastern Europe. Would be cool if they made it to Texas.

these cats had a girl that played fiddle
lived here in dallas
might be why i havent heard much from them lately
they may have changed their name to avoid confusion

Rollin' high and mighty traps
Pounced with fire on flaming roads
Using ideas as my maps."

none of which were mine.
Tightened my belt around my hips
where your hands were missing..."

It took me three years of singing this song in the car to realize what this line meant and one moment to declare it genius despite the performer's other less desireable qualities.
