We might get a new A Perfect Circle album before new Tool

by | Mar 30, 2017

Can’t say we’re too surprised, but we’ll take what we can get. It does appear that a new A Perfect Circle album will be on your playlist before the new Tool record.

APC recently inked a deal with BMG. And if our crystal ball is correct, there’s a good chance that’ll get released this year.

Maybe even sooner than later. Next week the band will be hitting the road for the first time since 2011. They’ll be crossing the entire US — and we presume they’ll play a new song or two.

As far as the new album goes, the forthcoming album will serve as a follow-up to 2004’s Emotive.
