Thirteenth Step

"A Perfect Circle is the quieter and more melodic side of Tool frontman Maynard James Keenan (with guitarist Billy Howerdel)... and seeing as though we probably won't be getting another Tool album for some time yet, "Thirteenth Step" will do just fine. In fact, it's a tremendous recording that will literally grow and crawl all over you just like the exotic amoebic life form that graces the cover of the CD. "Thirteenth Step" may prove to be a little too mind-expanding for the more conservative "rock" fan, but give it a try anyway..."

A Perfect Circle's all-star line-up now includes James Iha (Smashing Pumpkins) on guitar, Twiggy Ramirez (Marilyn Manson) on bass and Josh Freese on drums plus original members Tool singer Maynard James Keenan and guitar tech Billy Howerdel.

"Thirteenth Step" features the dark, edgy single "Weak & Powerless".

A dramatically powerful album that picks up sonically where "Mer De Noms" left off, "Thirteenth Step" is a conceptual exploration of the darker side of the human psyche.
