A Perfect Circle - Thirteenth Step

The past several years has seen a renaissance, of sorts, in the prog rock world. Bands such as A Perfect Circle and Porcupine Tree, as well as the most recent album by Opeth, have delivered a slower, more intense and moody brand of prog rock, rather than the flashy, technically dazzling brand you might be afraid of. More In the Court of the Crimson King than The Gates of Delirium. This second album by A Perfect Circle is a journey best taken in your home with the lights dimmed. Then again, it works in my car, too. I just make sure the windows are closed. Check out the next single, Blue, and Weak and Powerless.
