The name Puscifer was meant as an inside joke that their mascot was the devil if he was female. Their first EP “V is for Vagina” had the carton she devil and was their original logo. The name stuck with the band as they released more albums. The song is about Maynard when he first started his vineyard out in Arizona. It’s his song of triumph for overcoming needing enough water to feed his fields. The closest water source is the Verde River near his farm in Jerome. He has said in interviews the challenge to direct the water to his fields was one of the biggest challenges he has handled. That’s why he calls it the “Humbling River”. It’s a great song about over coming the struggles of life.
I had the pleasure of seeing Pucifer in Dublin Ireland in 2023 and I cried when they sang this. Carina Round has an amazing voice that compliments Maynards perfectly. This song is beautiful. They have so much more. Momma sed is another and The Remedy. Great reaction as always guys. Big love from Ireland 🇮🇪 x
Great Reaction! The song speaks to me that we all need a community. We conquer problems in out lives (climb a mountain) as individuals, but some problems can not be resolved on our own. We all need a community that we can link hands to cross the river of life. I would love to see some more Tool reactions!🌀
Love this song, in my top 3 faves of Puscifer songs. His voice is so pure and haunting and the instruments back up that whole atmosphere of our souls’ striving to cross into peace and wholeness beautifully. In mythology there are several famous rivers associated with the soul crossing over after death, such as the River Styx, and there’s the river of Lethe or forgetfulness, where souls forget the identities they had in life once they cross over. I interpret it personally as my own soul trying to drop all the baggage of wrongs and mistakes I’ve made in my life and how in order to advance myself I have to realize no one makes it through life or death alone and we all must help each other cross to a better higher stage of being.
The River is a Metaphor for any hurdle or obstacle in your life, some people have obstacles and hurdles they never overcome.....Maynard James is the greatest lyricist of all time
Honestly, y’all are the most genuine reaction channel. Your reactions make me feel the music in a way I couldn’t by myself. The connection between me, the music and humanity….. there is something to be said about that. You guys represent humanity in this analogy
Later, when you learn about Maynards life, and how all these beautiful ideas and lyrics were brought to the surface, you'll understand why he writes such in depth and emotional songs. It will make you cry, and want to be a better human.
Love love love this song, he sings a lot about the Verde River he has a home close to it, I live on the other side of the mountain from it, about 40 minutes😊
Puscifer, pronounced 'Puss-uh-fer', has an incredibly diverse discography, it's absolutely full of masterful compositions! The female vocalist is Carina Round, another beautiful part of their band. Maynard and Carina were made to sing together!
❤❤❤ hello guys, I like your content on your channel keep it up great job,, by the way, the girl singing with Puscifer is Karina around, she’s a singer songwriter from England and sings on many Puscifer songs with Mayor, James Keenan❤❤
Or with you and your wife you can cross the river. This is actually one of my favorite Puscifer songs. I recommend you listen to Ween their song The Argus is a great one to start with.
This band will surprise you more than his other two bands. They will toss a curveball your way in some songs. Country Boner is one that’s just a funny song not a serious song. Bullet Train To Iowa is transcending.
I love you guys so much. This is one of my favorite Pucifer songs. It's hard to pick a favorite. I'm going to see them for Maynards 60th birthday celebration tour featuring Pucifer, A Perfect Circle, and Primus. They're all going to be on the stage at the same time. It's going to be awesome. Wish you could be there. Thanks again.❤❤❤
@rexahdar4199 Wow,that's a long way to travel to see them. I saw Tool a few months ago. This will be the second time I've seen Maynards' three bands in a one year time span
Hey Guys, please do me a favor and react to your new favorite Band "Sleep Token" ! Please React to Take me back to Eden , Chokehold and atlantic! You will be hypnotice from this Band and the Myth Vessel!
Discovered Puscifer over the pandemic. I fell in love with this song in particular. Maynard cannot fail it seems.

I saw them that same tour but in the states. The whole set was amazing but this song was on another level for me as well.
Your reactions bought tears… so happy to see people experience the song , it’s like a right of passage.
Maynard is the ultimate lyricist. This song is absolutely beautiful! I love your reaction.
Maynard James Keenan is a legend! He has amazing songs with all three of his bands!
“Potions” “the mission” just download the whole catalog y’all going to love it.

If you liked this I'd recommend *Grand Canyon* by Puscifer as well.
Recommended: “Bedlamite”-Puscifer (live Arcosanti version). “Gunner’s Dream”-Pink Floyd, Final Cut.

Yes I was going to suggest this song!Amazing band just another project of Maynard.Oceans is another of my favorites by them.

It is beautifiul masterpiece, this drums, rhythm, voices, lyrics 🍀💚
It’s Maynard. He’s a genius

So much emotion…
My 2nd reaction video I’ve seen of yours (after Calling Elvis), love you guys. Obv subscribed now, much love from Australia 🇦🇺
I highly recommend Personal Prometheus. It's exceptionally beautiful (and profound).
Beautiful song if you're into this type of music. LOVE TOOL. Don't have much use for Pucifer or APC.
First time I heard Puscifer was on Yellowstone.
the female vocalist is carena round , she has a great voice
Puscifer's sound somewhat evolves but it developed into something special. Listen to "Tumbleweed" and "Galileo"
❤❤❤ hello guys, I like your content on your channel keep it up great job,, by the way, the girl singing with Puscifer is Karina around, she’s a singer songwriter from England and sings on many Puscifer songs with Mayor, James Keenan❤❤

My voicedictation spelled Carina Round wrong 😅😅😅
This band will surprise you more than his other two bands. They will toss a curveball your way in some songs. Country Boner is one that’s just a funny song not a serious song. Bullet Train To Iowa is transcending.
The next obvious pick for Puscifer would be listening to 'Momma Sed' (Official Video).
River : challenges
I just listened to your reaction to emerson lake and palmer...look for the song by them "LUCKY MAN"
Ooo, dear, yeah, spotted the name of the video - you guys may weep when you listen to this one. Let's see.
The river is whatever you think it is. And that's the entire excellence of his writing - the lyrics get you thinking, questioning, wondering.
The River could be thought of consciousness or Enlightenment.
I would like to see your reaction to Peter Gabriel's 'Shaking The Tree' ( A Woman's Day)
I love you guys so much. This is one of my favorite Pucifer songs. It's hard to pick a favorite.

Going to the 60th of Maynard too... at San Diego... flying all the way from New Zealand for it... I have no doubt it will be worth it.
@rexahdar4199 Wow,that's a long way to travel to see them. I saw Tool a few months ago. This will be the second time I've seen Maynards' three bands in a one year time span
@@rexahdar4199 I hope you have an excellent time
"Violin" was likely Cello
PLEASE REACT TO "MARK KNOPFLER AND TOM JONES" - FEELS LIKE GOING HOME.
Its when the immovable meets the unstoppable.

Did you shave your V for Vendetta?
Check out his other band "A Perfect Circle" Orestes live at Red Rocks! It's an amazing song and performance.
Judith is another great song by a perfect circle.
Judith is about Maynard's mother.
