A PERFECT CIRCLE - EAT THE ELEPHANT / 2018 / BMG / ALTERNATIVE ROCK

5/10

Y'all know this is just my opinion, right?

[moppenboek]

So you like perfect circle but didn't like Mer de Norms, Thirteenth Step and eMotive. So than what exactly is it that you do like about their track record?

[chittychins]

Melon is just jealous of Maynard's beautiful bald head.

[jacksonrhodes]

Jesus christ anthony you didn't actually have to eat an elephant to make your point

[bplusstudios]

Really, Melon? You think that spending the second half of the review yelling at Maynard and begging for a new Tool album is going to do anything? We get it, you've heard of the Fibonacci sequence.

[DrowningMoon]

I understand you feel like tool is better than a perfect circle but did you really have to say that tools new album will be a 11/10 and be the best album of 2033?

[TheAndrewj]

Worst album cover of the year. I'm calling it.

[MrPatters]

Review 19th century composer Frédéric Chopin's new album

[rooftopsignals]

You KNOW he didn't give it the NOT GOOD review just because he still needs MJK to record the vocals on the new Tool album

[joestar]

The Thirteenth Step is one of the greatest albums of all time

[AbyssLMachiine]

Actually surprised he didn't talk about "by and down the river" my favorite track on the album.

[OwenMorganTelltale]

I swear, this dude throws out witty references like crazy.

[matttraverso]

We all know you just checked the description then swiped to the comments

[mikemerifield]

Dug the review Melon, but did you really have to go on a five minute rant about hentai when you mentioned the octopus on the cover

[jacksonanderson]

Would've been a solid 7 if not for the album cover

[TappySapJr]

I kinda liked this album. It wasnt heavy, it wasnt light, its was a grey area. Much of the tracks sort of present a grey area, with hints of happiness and anger/sadness. Overall, I see it as APC's experiment into making music seen as an art form rather than something to be entertained by. I'm not sure if I'm right, but its a personal thing I gathered from a few listens once my vinyl came in. I wasn't sure if you'd cover this Anthony, but I'm glad you did and spoke your mind. 10/10 for Best Teeth

[smjames]

Surprised that he thought the first 2 albums were "spacey".

[abstractswirls]

I personally love this album. I appreciate the sociopolitical messaging behind the wise lyrics, and the hard hitting instrumentation. One of my favorites. The melodic atmospheric and dark tone of the album is beautiful

[CunningCondor]

I really do not understand the dislike for this album (cover art aside).

APC has always been about ambience and experimentation and simply using more pianos doesn't magically make it bad. Also I shouldn't have to point out that APC and Tool are completely separate bands with the vocalist being the only connection. One should never go into APC expecting Tool sounds.

[IceKoldKilla]

He said "rapping" 😂 Are you serious?

[SlyRyFry]

lol hourglass is prolly my fav song from the lp its a decent album i enjoy, 7/10
