About A Perfect Circle

A Perfect Circle is an alternative metal band from Los Angeles, CA, formed in 1999.

Before forming A Perfect Circle in Los Angeles in 1999, Billy Howerdel worked as a guitar technician for bands including Tool and Nine Inch Nails, and he wrote much of the early material himself. Maynard James Keenan supplied the vocals and lyrics. Songs such as 'Judith', which Keenan wrote about his mother's faith, and '3 Libras' set heavy guitar dynamics against slower, more atmospheric passages. The rest of the lineup has changed many times.

'Thirteenth Step' followed in 2003, and 'eMOTIVe' in 2004, a largely political record built mostly from reworked cover songs. The band then went quiet for long stretches while Keenan worked with Tool and Puscifer. They returned to the road in the 2010s and put out 'Eat the Elephant' in 2018, a more piano-led album.
