I'll always love the part of this video where Paz does up her hair during a break in the bass. I know they had to speed it up, but it's still a really cool shot.
I don't know if it was known at the time, but the lyrics for this song came to a resolution in the Tool songs "Wings for Marie / 10,000 days", where MJK writes a bit more explicitly about his mother, who he loved and highly respected, but whose strong religious views (in spite of her literal paralysis) he rejected.
Beautiful album. Stood above so many at that time. Still does.
Bought this and Deftones' "White Pony" on the same day. That was a great day for music buying
Fucking David Fincher man. One of my favorite and most formative band, music and video all in one
IIRC, Judith was written in his frustration with his late mother's faith in spite of her illness (before she passed). Essentially criticizing the rationale in sustaining support for a god that would burden you with such a debilitating illness despite your immense personal virtue.
Contrast this song to 10,000 Days, in which he admires and absolutely stands behind his mother in her faith after she passed, imploring her to demand her angel wings for her unrelenting faith in the face of adversity:
To me, understanding these songs together is paramount to understanding their tremendous philosophical connection, individually.
They kick off a tour in 2017.
I went to undergrad in Arizona - one night when I went grocery shopping at a Whole Foods in Phoenix, I saw that Maynard was having a promotion for stronghold vineyard (his wine) - i was dumbstruck at my luck. I made my way over to the wine section to see if this was actually real, as stories of Maynard interacting with the general public are few and far between. He was there, he was charging people to taste wine with him, I caught his eye, smirked at him and the whole premise of what he was doing, and I swear he smirked back. This may seem like an insignificant moment to most, but as a 21year old who followed perfect circle around the country, this made my whole year.
The world needs more music from APC.
