Posted on by Oran


After much teasing and titillation, Puscifer — the experimental music-and-performance-art collective spearheaded by Tool and A Perfect Circle frontman Maynard James Keenan — has finally announced its fourth full-length, Existential Reckoning, due out October 30th via Alchemy Recordings/Puscifer Entertainment/BMG.

The 12-track LP includes the singles “Apocalyptical” and the newly released “The Underwhelming,” a subtly bluesy number that rides a swaggering beat and Keenan’s sonorous vocals — stream it below:

Puscifer currently revolves around the core trio of Keenan, singer Carina Round, and guitarist and co-producer Mat Mitchell. According to Keenan, the new album draws on “past influences for Mat and Carina and I.” “Devo, Kraftwerk — it’s all there,” he told us in May. “B-52s, the old Talking Heads sensibilities — those are all written into our DNA at this point.
