I've been trying to turn my mom on to Tool. She loves wine so I encouraged her to buy a couple of bottles from Maynard's winery and we drank them listening to the Fear Inoculum album. Great wines btw. We got the high end bottles. Now, I bought Tool concert tickets for us in Dallas 1/31/22. She is the dean of a major university, PhD in literature, and is now a Maynard fan! It took a lot of tries but she spiraled out.
Great reaction, folks! That was nice to have a special guest to enter Doug deeper into the mind of Maynard. They know what they're talking about. Great job, again. BTW, Maynard's mom, Judith passed in 2005. 🙏
"This to shall pass" is a very important mantra in Narcotics Anonymous Maynard got clean about the time apc and puscifer came on the scene a good deal of these songs have to do with his battle with addiction and his relationship with drugs and his recovery as well
Yes Maynard was heavily into drugs in the early days of tool APCs 2nd album the 13th step is almost completely about addiction and the process of recovery
@@dan.j.boydzkreationz 90s would have been early days of tool the 13th step is almost solely about addiction and recovery but yes he's been in recovery a long time
Mate, I love Maynard's voice on this album. Unfortunately for the most part he dropped the deep baritone and went back to his "regular" range for the rest of the Puscifer albums. They're all good though. For some more great deep vocal stuff you have to check out the song Queen B. Their last album, Existential Reckoning, is fantastic. A lot more synthy. Check out Bread and Circus or Bullet Train to Iowa.
Caduceus Cellars is Maynard's winery in Jerome AZ (an old mile high mining town that spills down the side of Cleopatra Hill). The grapes come from his Merkin vineyards in the Cornville and Page Springs area of the Verde River valley below. All of these locales are just west of Sedona. In addition, Maynard is co-owner of Stronghold Vinyards in Kansas Settlement in the Sulpher Springs Valley southeast of Tucson. For the uninitiated, a merkin is a pubic wig. The term dates back to at least 1450.
So glad u did the studio version. This and Potions are my favs. The first time I heard of Pucifer was in a 1995 episode of Mr. Show, David Cross and Bob Odenkirk. They were a joke band then, but not anymore.
Sweet! Which one did you get? If you get a chance come out to visit. The tasting room, Puscifer store & Restaurant are all worth the trip on their own & it’s only 40 minutes from Sedona.
@@DM-il1hf had several from Caduceus / Merkin: Chupacabra Blanca, Nagual Del Agostina 2017, Helio Dolce, but the best by far was Trial Series #1018 of the Outlier and Odd Experiments Division AZVA Lot 1200 Btls, BMV Syrah Norte (2015 Whole Cluster Syrah, Willcox Arizona)!
Hey, for a future react video, I'd love for you to have a listen to this band called Cardiacs. I'd recommend you listen to Dirty Boy, R.E.S., Big Ship or Tarred and Feathered, for a taste of their wild chord progressions and melodies, that on paper don't make sense, but it all works out in the end. Dirty Boy is a more traditional rock anthem-style song, extremely epic, but let's just say it is most certainly not in one key (which basically goes for all their music). R.E.S. is a quirky, carnival music sounding piece with a complex instrumental break in the middle. Big Ship has a kind of melancholic feel, but a great and epic closing. Tarred and Feathered is like a goddamn fever dream, very fast-paced and chaotic. If I had to pick one of these songs for you to do a video on, I'd say Dirty Boy has the widest appeal, it's very cardiac-y, and just an amazing song. Or just do all these songs in an extended video.
Check out the song he wrote about his daughter. It’s beautiful. “It’s called Agostina.” Another gem is off the last record “Bullet Train to Iowa.” Love the channel! Thank you! 💜
I highly encourage everyone to visit the Verde Vally & experience Arizona & all things Maynard. Maynard is one of the most respected wine growers in Arizona (and beyond) and none of the people out here threw him any bones for being a famous musician. But his hard work & resiliency won everyone over & now he & his wife & beloved from one end of the state to the other. Keep in mind, when he moved here the locals thought he was some city slicker rock star from LA but he treated everyone with respect, he worked his ass off & he’s contributed greatly to making the Valley a wonderful place. Hell, he could run for mayor now & win in a landslide & none of it has anything to do with his music. And he did it all on his own terms & has kept his integrity intact from the beginning. And when Puscifer plays Prescott it’s a must do pilgrimage for us locals. Jump in the car, get a room at one of the local spots. We usually stay at the Hassayampa Inn, which is walking distance to the show. Then hit one of the historic l watering holes on our way back to the room, then the next day head to Cottonwood for Chef Smiths world famous Gbocchi & Merkin in Cottonwood. Then a quick drive up the mountain to the Puscifer store in Jerome & wine at his tasting room next door. It’s one beautiful celebration of art, family & a beautiful example of the American dream. If that doesn’t inspire a person then nothing would.
That’s your take from this? That’s sad that you interpreted it that way. Especially when it’s crystal clear that they have no affiliation with the band, Maynard or his Wines, other than her liking it.
If you've never heard the band Orden Ogan, please, please, please do their song "in the Dawn of the A.I." from their latest album some Metal Monday. Both the song and the video are EPIC! You won't be disappointed and when you realize you want to hear more give their song "Gunman" a try. P.S. Pay attention to the drummer, he's fantastic!
Hi, Doug. May I ask you react to singer with craziest range (A1-D8) and absolute voice control? He keeps F#6 for 20 seconds. Name of the singer is Dimash. Recommended song is Stranger. Hope to see your reaction.
I would have gone with the What Is...? version but any Maynard is good. Please please do more Pusci, it's the best Maynard imo. Especially later stuff with Carina. My god do they sound good together. There's a video on YT that gives examples of his range. He's got 4 octaves +2.
I’ve always thought the same thing about the song’s relationship to maynards childhood experience of his mother’s sudden illness and him moving to go live with his dad. Also, u absolutely need to do Judith by APC!
Love me some Puscifer been to Jerome to the vineyard and the merch store. I appreciate you doing this. Their music doesn't get enough recognition. Some of the harmonies in their songs and next level. Thanks again
I’m off topic, but I’ve studied languages (Polish, German, French & Russian) and you mentioned that in your Jackson Brown video. Uprising by Sabaton, live at Polish Woodstock 2012. He sings Warszawo Walcz! (Warsaw Fight). But in a nuance of language. Warsaw is in the Vocative case, so he’s giving Warsaw a personality, an almost Human Identity. Think the spirit of the city, it’s very soul rises to take their freedom back from the Nazis.
Maynard covering 21st century schizoid man (King Crimson)is gold. There is some great live versions of Are you going with me(Pat Metheny)just sayin. I also hope you will analyse Leprous one day.Running low would be a god start 🤘
You should really listen to Invisible, an Argentinian band. Any of their 3 albums, they are all quite different. The third ("El jardín de los presentes") is the most acclaimed and jazzy. The other two are prog masterpieces. Just throwing the idea, if not for the channel do it in your free time. You wont regret it.
Some Metal Monday, take a gander at a live thrash metal performance with possibly a QUADRUPLE kick (two drummers): King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard performing songs from their album INFEST THE RATS NEST ruclips.net/video/EnmFKS2eDBA/видео.html These guys live Maynard's "create with every breath" creed; they've released 18 albums in 9 years, many different genres.
Watching you guys and listen to your comments I really wish that you had done the live version on the EP because you can clearly hear what he's saying and you understand way better it's almost like that's the better the version of the song. This was on their first LP which does not have very many entertaining songs I have it on vinyl and CD and it's still good but without a doubt the money shot, conditions of my parole and especially existential Reckoning! All of the ep's they released like Donkey Punch the night away and the letter C which is the EP that has the better version of mama said which is done live and also "Potions" is on it. Plus there's some good the songs on the ep's as well including cover songs. I love TOOL, A Perfect Circle and Puscifer all bands are in my top 5 favorite bands! I think the first album from Puscifer was Maynard experimenting with different kinds of music. Just my opinion and it is better on the ep's but that's just my opinion I hope Doug that you hearing this song drives you too hear EP version I'm saying the EP version which is live is definitely better than this
Whenever I hear this song, it makes me think that the mother (his or otherwise) is telling her son that he will experience heart break and that he needs to take it like a man. I feel like it is a rebuttal to men who feel it necessary to seek vengeance on women who break their hearts. In other words, if your woman leaves you, don't be a dick and stalk her.
What happened at th end of the video? What was he aiming his rifle at? Why did evrything crumble away as the sun came up? Also, is that the same DJ Dan from The Sound of the Ultimate Bass?
Rae is a natural on camera. They need their own channel... or do they have one? I'm not a huge fan of Puscifer - No hate or dislike of them - just not my thing. "Cuntry Boner" makes me giggle, though. Thanks for the video!
Checkout the live version that was on the DVD for the album: What Is? Also Puscifer most certainly does not fit one style. Each album is somewhat different and another journey. I saw Puscifer Live in New Orleans and it was insane but really good.
Yoo I know ya been doing rock and roll reactions I think you would enjoy sabaton they do music on history from war they are a rock band that ya might like

Humbling River. Carina Round and Maynards harmonies are SUBLIME. More PUSCIFER. 🤞💯🔥
Oh dam, and once again I'm requesting the amazing track DOOMED by A PERFECT CIRCLE.
Rae's joy of watching you vibe to this is so wholesome. Also HIGHLY recommend the Rev 22-20 dry martini mix, it's incredible.
11 is when we waved goodbye. 10, 000 days in the fire is long enough.
Great reaction, folks! That was nice to have a special guest to enter Doug deeper into the mind of Maynard. They know what they're talking about. Great job, again. BTW, Maynard's mom, Judith passed in 2005. 🙏
Judith video please. Rae rocks
PUSCIFER and A PERFECT CIRCLE both have AMAZING DISCOGRAPHIES. 💯🔥🤞✌
I love Green Valley. My all time favorite Puscifer song.
"This to shall pass" is a very important mantra in Narcotics Anonymous Maynard got clean about the time apc and puscifer came on the scene a good deal of these songs have to do with his battle with addiction and his relationship with drugs and his recovery as well
Had no idea Maynard struggled with addiction, does he touch on this subject in the new biography?
Yes Maynard was heavily into drugs in the early days of tool APCs 2nd album the 13th step is almost completely about addiction and the process of recovery

I think Judith had the stroke when he was 11. The Tool track "Jimmy" references this quite a bit.
DOUG!!!! If you liked “Momma Said” you have to give Rev 22-20 a whirl!!! You will NOT be disappointed!
Yeeees! I’m so glad you listened to Puscifer! And I LOVE your guest 🥰
Got to hit Puscifer Autumn at some point. Favorite song after this one featuring Carina.
I've had some wine from Caduceus Cellars. Magnificent.
Sweet! Which one did you get?

Awesome as always! Please, do Dead Can Dance!
Ohh that is out of this World!
That's on my wish list as well. 😁
Maynard has done so much great stuff.
Doug, listen to the title track from Eat The Elephant from APC. There’s no guitar, but it’s killer!
Am I too late to suggest King Diamond for Metal Monday? Maybe the title track from the Abigail album?
Dude has a 5 octave range.
I have read books out of sequence..she says that is ok and I agree..what it does if FORCE me to read the prior books..good analogy she offered.

This is a song about life and pain, period. It's plain, simple, powerful and deep.
Check out the song he wrote about his daughter. It’s beautiful. “It’s called Agostina.”
Another gem is off the last record “Bullet Train to Iowa.”
Love the channel! Thank you! 💜
Maynard is like King Midas; everything he touches is GOLD!
I think the live version of this song is even better. But yeah, this is probably my favorite Puscifer song as well.
I absolutely LOVE ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING MAYNARD ! A ABSOLUTE GENIUS!
LOL she does not want you to interrupt the song! HAHAHA,,this is a great one man.,
Next one " Bullet Train to Iowa" by Puscifer. Another vocal range from Maynard.
The wine bottle he drops is his own brand, Caduceus, 2005 Sensei. Didn't know he owned a wine company. Interesting...
I highly encourage everyone to visit the Verde Vally & experience Arizona & all things Maynard.

Dr. D thank you very much. I’m not much into metal but this was wonderful.
Happy Monday!
I love that this is just a high end advertisement for his winery. Caduceus wines.
That’s your take from this?
That’s sad that you interpreted it that way.
Especially when it’s crystal clear that they have no affiliation with the band, Maynard or his Wines, other than her liking it.
Hi both of you from corsica you made my day ;-))
So... it's not Metal Monday, it's Merch Monday! :-D
Brad Wilk and Tim Commerford are the rhythm section from Rage Against the Machine, Audioslave., Prophets of Rage

You really need to do the live version of this from Money Shot as well as Rev:22
seconded ^ brilliant stuff
Live version of this is second to none.. a different time pace, and mood by the way
Please do Dimmu Borgir "Progenies of the Great Apocalypse"

Luis Alberto Spinetta rules!!!!
The "V" is for Versatile
Because Maynard is Versatile
I’m of the opinion that any evaluation of MJK must first be done under the umbrella of “Sex. Drugs. RockNRoll.”
More Rae. They are funny AF.
Heeey Rae!!!!
Gotta say I don't like having someone who knows the music on the video hyping moments up in advance.

"Wintersun - Sons Of Winter And Stars (TIME I Live Rehearsals At Sonic Pump Studios)" please.

I love Carina. So tired of people comparing Maynard to God. He very good but it is not fair to God
God is merely a product of social conditioning & one’s own imagination.
At least there’s actual evidence of Maynard’s existence.
Oh and do "Hypa, Hypa" by Eskimo Callboy.
This sounds like the NERGAL solo albums, "New Man New Songs Same SHIT"! is a great album from NO METAL by a figure on Black Metal :p
