"This week, we highlight Puscifer's "Self Evident." Puscifer are set to return with their first album in more than five years, announcing a February 6th release for their upcoming LP, Normal Isn't. Maynard James Keenan and company unleashed the first single, "Self Evident," and it's an absolutely hypnotic song. Over a driving rhythm section, Keenan and Carina Round engage in call-and-response vocals that are instantly captivating."
"Lyrically, Puscifer's longstanding dark sense of humor shines through, with lines like, "You're an idiot/ You embody every bit of it/ Even set a new precedent/ Empirical/ Concrete evidence/ Minimal due diligence/ We've concluded what is obvious/ You're a bunghole." Not too many bands can pull off a song with the word "bunghole" in it, but then again, not too many bands are anything like the wholly unique Puscifer."
Puscifer return with a first album in more than five years, Normal Isn't, set for February 6. The lead single, 'Self Evident,' delivers a hypnotic sound built on a driving rhythm section and captivating call-and-response vocals between Maynard James Keenan and Carina Round. The lyrics display a longstanding dark sense of humor, culminating in a blunt, provocative line that underscores the band's unique voice. Honorable mentions include Angel Du$t's 'Cold 2 the Touch,' which pairs galloping Motörhead-style drums with aggressive melody and Justice Tripp's braggadocio, and Bad Omens' 'Dying to Love,' which expands the band's sonic boundaries with massive guitars.
