Yes!!! Those are the two I most want them to react to next along with Gravity! They're some of the best tracks APC has ever produced, and that's saying a lot. While the whole album is undeniably beautifully crafted and without a single skippable track, I basically had those 3 on constant repeat in 2003 for a long time. And every time I hear them now, I'm instantly transported back to that time. The build up on The Package is utterly exquisite, the meaning behind The Noose is utterly haunting, and the musicianship within Gravity is utterly hypnotic. Really hoping your comment gets enough likes for George and Ryan to see it!

I prefer the album version. That song has more emotion in its guitar alone than 90% of bands full catalogs. Combined with arguably MJKs best singing, and Josh Freese leaving Earth during the guitar solo.

Billy howerdel might be the most criminally underrated compositionalist of all time

Billy is much more than just the other guitarist, APC is his band. He wrote 90% of the music. Maynard obviously wrote the lyrics and the vocal melody but Billy is the mastermind of APC.

This is one of my absolute favorite songs. Thank you guy's for reacting to it.

If you want to hear more killer dirty bass, do Weak and Powerless off this same album.

Their arrangements are very well constructed. They do well with putting vocals and lyrics with music. Storying telling with the elements of emotion.

Weak and powerless is a must. Such a banger

This whole album is incredible. The Noose is sooooo good!!!

Saw them perform this live and it was absolutely an out of body experience for me

Pet is a beast of song so glad you covered it

Jeordie White was Mansons bassist (twiggy) during the best years of that band. Had the bulk of the song writing credits for Mansons biggest hits. Dude's a beast. APC is also Billy Howerdel's band, he's like Billy Corgan is to the pumpkins

Funny that you mention Pumpkins, the current rhythm guitarist is James Iha.

What your describing at 6:20 is the sound of a heavy rhythm guitar and a distorted bass playing the same heavy riff that’s syncopated. Then you hear Billy Howerdale play the lead guitar over it while singing the harmonies. Also you asked what it’s called when they bring it down quiet. That’s called Dynamics. So you go from super heavy loud angry Maynard to a very tiny subtle pretty sound. That’s just dynamics. The solo section does the same thing. Heavy distorted bass and rhythm guitar playing the identical heavy riff and the lead doing its own thing over it. I’m such a nerd I just realized. So when you hear that BASS forward sound, it is in fact mixed really loud and the doubling rhythm guitar is mixed lower compared to the bass. I love this sound too

This is a great song. Their entire Mer de Noms album is great. Magdalena and Orestes are my favorites from that album, but really you could pick any song of theirs and find something great about it. Good pick here. Also, Thomas, Breña, Rose, 3 libras, and the hallow.

It's a concept album, listen in order for context on everything. Masterpiece album plain and simple!

The Package is incredibly good. The climax especially.

This song is all about the heaviness and the lyrics! The LYRICS!

Saw APC in 2003 at Lollapolooza. We all waited patiently for them to start and suddenly we hear “go back to sleep”, and nothing. Hear it again and the curtain drops, goes straight into this song. It was awesome. What a great song to start your set.

They need todo this whole album its a masterpiece

I've been following you guys since your start. You guys always put a smile on my face. Even when you do not like a song you guys critique it in a non-negative way. Kudos to Ryan on his articulate insight on the song! Much love and appreciation to you two. PEACE

Maynard can do no wrong on any song or any of his bands!

Pet is probably my most listened to song even this song is probably the definition of a perfect song

I love them. After many years of listening to them.... I love Maynard but I really feel like Billy is the one that makes this group sound so amazing. I may be wrong but damn.... His influence as well as his harmonies are super

This was the 1st song that really grabbed me and introduced me to MJK and the music he's made thru his variety of bands (2 decades ago!?)...always good to see the appreciation continued via others and their perspectives.

When you reacted to The Outsider, I was hoping you would hit this one. I was so glad to see this pop up on my feed. Another top-notch reaction....thank you for the countless hours of enjoyment.

The Hollow, Magdalena, The Noose, The Package and Talk Talk are all great choices next

FINALLY! It's probably my favorite from them.

Awesome choice for a reaction. Also glad to discover a new band through your intro. They’re good!

Counting bodies like sheep’s to the rhythm of the war drum is a remix. Should definitely check it out

"Counting bodies like sheep..."

I requested this over four years ago, lol.

An interesting all star band, at the time of this album release: The guitarist Billy Howerdel played with Nine Inch Nails The Bassist Jeordie White played with Marilyn Manson The Drummer Josh Freese (Freeze) played with pop punk band The Vandals Other notable members have been: Tim “herb” Alexander of Primus James Iha of Smashing Pumpkins

This is my favourite bass of any album. There's so much love given, and emphasis on the basslines across all tracks.

omg i can't believe you guys reacted to a perfect circle!! i haven't heard them in ages lol. you guys are digging DEEP!!! edit: btw i'm still in the middle of the video so idk if they mention it but james iha from smashing pumpkins is one of the guitarists i'm pretty sure!

This album is a 'must listen from start to finish' for me.

Yas! I love this song 🙌

A Perfect Circle - The Noose. Such a brilliant song. And it is again very different to what you have heard already from them.

Many songs will hit the playlist from these guys!! Whole album is fantastic!

Follow this with Counting Bodies Like Sheep to the Rhythm of the War Drums!

That whole album is fire! 🔥

Orestes is my favorite song by them, is beautiful

The Package!!

One of my fave apc songs

Friggin love this song!!.. This cranked up in the car is FIRE!!!

ORBIT CULTURE!!!! "North Star of Nija"

This song took a while to grow on me when I first heard it years ago. Then I left it for a while and when I went back to it.... My god what a banger..!!!

I saw them play this whole album live in Atlanta a week before the album came out

Josh Freese... the new drummer for Foo Fighters. Dude has been one of the best drummers of the last 20+ years.

A Perfect Circle style is to have the bass and drums up front and the guitar just adds color in the background. That’s Billy Howeredell style as a guitarist

@LostInVegas Perfect Circle's singer is Maynard Keenan. The singer for Tool and Puscifer.

SO glad you did this one! I'd suggest The Noose or Gravity from the same album. Not quite as heavy but both gorgeous tracks.

Great song! Everything on this record ins fire!

Incredible song and lyricism 🤘

Killer Mike scientists & engineers

This is dope ..this album is 🔥🔥

Just fyi- there was definitely some sarcasm that got lost in Maynard’s delivery when he told y’all “here is the link between reality and the beyond” or whatever he said. He is not that pretentious AT ALL. He is a proud person I would say, rightly so, but not at all egotistical and certainly does not take himself that seriously. Much love to you guys 💚
