    Imagine being a 12 year old in the year 2000- You're into metal and your favorite bands are Deftones and TOOL. 7th grade is almost over and the summer is coming up. You're sick of all the nu-metal clones and need some exciting new music. You put on KROQ in the morning one day and you hear "Judith" playing on the way to school. You had no idea Maynard had a side-project! You get the album and fall in love. The next month, your favorite band Deftones releases WHITE PONY and flips the script on modern metal. You're cruising at night with your older brother, listening to the album for the first time and then "Passenger" comes on.... I can remember the "cool night air" from that night like it was yesterday. A little less than a year passes by and TOOL releases LATERALUS a week before your birthday. What a time to be alive.

      People don't know it well enough to know that most of it is his work. Maynard did contribute more musically on Thirteenth Step but this album is almost 100% Billy, even some vocal melodies, but Maynard wrote lyrics and tweaked it. And ofc, sung it expertly. This might be why it's a good choice to watch the Live At Red Rocks for The Outsider. You get to see Billy uncontrollably rock his ass off.

      @@braindedpxl APC is owned by Billy and Maynard. They signed the checks. That's why they stay in it and the other members come and go. Maynard doesn't play instruments, so he entrusts arrangement and composition to his fellow musicians, but he still has an entire career of musical experience, so since Thirteenth Step (their second album) he became more influential in what ideas got approved and how Billy went about composing it. But Billy is the composer, fundamentally. The vocals for Mer De Noms (first album) were mostly decided by him, but on the later ones he said he would often be surprised at the way Maynard chose to arrange his vocals on the songs.

    That moment at 9:02 when Maynard holds the scream and then Billy and Paz come in and haromize the scream is the peak moment of the song for me. Just a wall of power and emotion after all that relentless drive in the song leading to it. Top 3 APC song for me.

    • @linkenski
      @linkenski 3 года назад +1

      You have to hear the "Live@France" live performance. It almost sounds even better there, because he does the scream perfectly pitched, sustains it all the way to the "ohhhh" at the end, and the way Billy compliments it sounds really good there. There's a slight crack right before it calms down, where Maynard's vocal goes up one half-step and then back again, but it almost sounds intentional and it gives it an extra bit of tension. Billy also plays the slide in a new variation in the second chorus that adds to the emotion.

      I might not remember every detail correctly and this is a complex story but according to what I read the song is like a prequel to "Wings for Marie" double track. Maynard's mother Judith married a man who brought the family into a Christian fundamentalist cult. While Judith was getting sick to the point of not being able to move nor speak, the self-entitled, hypocrite, judgemental members of the cult kept on saying that her sickness was evidence of a punishment for her sins, even though she was a genuine good person and believer. That behaviour is what triggered young Maynard's rebellion to the cult and made him despise organized religion in general. He understood they were full of shit but in some way he was also angry with his mother for keeping her faith in God without questioning. This is why he wrote "Judith". After some time he wrote "Wings for Marie" because growing up he understood that his mother's faith was not to blame but the abusive cult who tried to weaponize it against her and everyone who did not take their bullshit. I summed it up and my English isn't perfect, so I hope what I wrote makes sense. 😅

      Now imagine a woman praying for her son to be saved and the jury is still out. I wonder if God is faithful to remove a heart of stone and replace it with a heart of flesh. Read Revelation 11:7-15 and know the day when Jews and Christians will rise from the dead in the millions making the Muslims wonder if they really did wipe Israel off the map and if they really will be able to keep Palestine whole.

      Any verse in the Bible can be defended with logic and context, while no verse can be shown to be good in the Quran with logic and context. Allah is the most damned entity of the ancient Hebrew Bible. How interesting that Yahweh would know Allah is the cause of all trouble.
      Now imagine a woman praying for her son to be saved and the jury is still out. I wonder if God is faithful to remove a heart of stone and replace it with a heart of flesh. Read Revelation 11:7-15 and know the day when Jews and Christians will rise from the dead in the millions making the Muslims wonder if they really did wipe Israel off the map and if they really will be able to keep Palestine whole.

    The first time I heard this song, I was in highschool and very much Catholic. I felt such a blend of confrontation and empathy, which has been a blessing as I converted to evangelical christianity, and now sitting somewhere between agnosticism and atheism this song has been a beautiful comfort. In my stupid idealism, I ignored the unanswered questions and kept running forward because that's how salvation works, right? The reality is, the truth is a bitter fruit. Thank you for this. I really needed to dig back into this song again tonight

      I was literally just thinking while watching the vid earlier, I'm not an atheist, but i have *questions!* 😆 I was raised Baptist in KY. Never been big on religion. Nowadays I'm somewhere between Christian & agnostic. I rarely pray & never go to church. But i do still pray when I feel it's needed lol. If that makes sense.
      Most of my fav creators are usually atheist. Altho, I LOVE Coke Studio Pakistan!!! Omg, pls check them out. Rohail Hyatt is a master producer. I looove Sufi songs & my fav singer is actually Sanam Marvi, a Sufi folk singer. "Khabaram Raseeda Imshab" was also my most listened to song while pregnant recently. Pls listen to it!! 🙏🏻
      Anyway, I used to get a kick when I was a teenager, to listen to TOOL or APC in the car with my uber religious mom. 😆 Bc it's hard to understand the lyrics, she had no idea I was listening to "blasphemous" music lmaoo. Good times. I was around 14 then. I'm 36 now & these bands are still BANGERS!
      Happy I came across this vid & got to read all of your wonderful, relatable stories! Stay blessed - whether by God or the universe - & always keep rocking 🎸🎶🎶

Everyone leapt to their feet and we all erupted into a huge army of excitement and wonderment. Everyone was looking around like, "are you hearing this like I'm hearing this"?

In 46&2 he is doing shadow work to work through these parts of himself to become sane/human/more. Of course, there is a lot more to this, but that's always been my head canon.

      Billy and Adam's playing styles are very fun to compare too. Billy writes more harmonically advanced pieces on guitar but Adam Jones has an almost complete tightness to the way he performs their riffs, as if he just played them 100k times and can't make a mistake. Billy can't control himself when they do live performances whenever he gets to the epic parts and he still plays it incredible but he's not nearly as concerned with pitch-perfect performance if he can jump around and do huge upstrokes for pure flair. I really like how their composition styles differ and what it brings out of each project.

      The music itself is often produced and recorded by only Maynard and Billy, and the others are more there for the live performance. Granted they're older now, but man I would love to see a modern APC concert with Paz and Troy in it. No offense to Iha or the new replacements but Troy was uniquely talented with his style and power, and Paz is such a multitalent. She really added to the atmosphere of their live shows by having great backup vocals. And that's something Maynard has really focused on with Puscifer. He almost always uses a female co-singer.

    Still here man! Thanks for the great commentary. I don't think there's a single video I've skipped out on early

    When you gave the chicken skin sign it's like you instantly transmitted it to me. I'm a huge fan of APC so I've listened to it all a million times but I still love this song. The lyrics are just savage yet filled with emotion and you can understand where his mind was at. What he saw her deal with and yet still believe. 10,000 days in fire is long enough. It was time for her to go home.

    One song you'll definitely love by them that shows off Maynard's voice as well is "The Package"

    Just arrived but loved the breakdown. Wouldn’t mind a bit longer on the breakdowns either. I’m always impressed by people who can intricately pull something apart.
