A Perfect Circle gear up for album release with new song 'So Long, And Thanks For The Fish'
/A Perfect Circle have shared their new song ‘So Long, And Thanks For All The Fish’ ahead of the April 20 release of their new full-length album EAT THE ELEPHANT.
“We all cope with the absurd in our own manner,” says Maynard James Keenan in reference to the new track.
“The Italian side of me produces and shares wine with friends in order to feel grounded and connected in the midst of all the madness. But once the wine is gone, the drunk and sarcastic Irish side of me goes straight for the unreasonable jugular. #comedyfirstandalways”
A Perfect Circle made their Coachella debut over the weekend, playing several new songs including the aforementioned ‘So Long, And Thanks For All The Fish’, ‘Eat The Elephant’ and ‘TalkTalk’.
On the day of EAT THE ELEPHANT’s release (Friday April 20 at 2:15pm NZ time) Maynard James Keenan and Billy Howerdel - in partnership with Revolver - will answer fans questions in a rare Q&A.
