Puscifer

I first heard Puscifer’s ‘V’ is for Vagina album a few years ago when it came out. It's the side project of Maynard James Keenan, frontman for Tool & A Perfect Circle. It was good but as a massive fan of Tool & A Perfect Circle, it was just a little left field. This album is nothing like he’s done before & pretty hard to define, very experimental to say the least. Stand out tracks for me were definitely ‘Momma Sed’. But the rest didn’t really capture me at the time. Have a listen for yourself. But lately and what’s gotten me to re-listen to ‘V’ is for Vagina is the remix album -‘V’ is for Viagra.

The depth of these tracks is just amazing. There not just remixes of the original songs, there songs unto their own. Which made me go back to the original songs & really appreciate them. A lot of credit does have to go the guest remix artists and it’s a diverse group including Lustmord, Josh Eustis of Telefon Tel Aviv, Troy Van Leeuwen of QOSTA & APC, Joey Jordison of Slipknot. Mate! The list goes on and on. Google it if you interested.

But having said that, these remixes would be nothing without the starting point of “V” is for Vagina. Adding to the fact that Maynard is a bloody musical genius. Whatever genre, whatever style.

In my opinion the man shits gold for breakfast!

Just remember not to take it too seriously its MJK after all & he’s just messing with our minds. I will post Cuntry Boner soon (maybe on a 'i hate country post' or something)

Here’s some favs from V is for Viagra:

For the Village: Momma Sed (Alive at Club Nokia) on the “C” is For (Please insert Sophomoric Genitalia Reference Here) album.  ‘Push it Live’ all over again. Brilliant!
