Tool's Maynard James Keenan is branching out with yet another side project, this time named Puscifer. I think it's a safe bet to guess that name is a blend of the words "Puss" and "Lucifer." Why would I think such unsavory things about Keenan's new band's name? Well, you haven't seen the title of the album yet. Here it is: V is for Vagina. Wow. Ballsy. Or vagina-y, I guess.
After contributing songs to two Underworld films, Puscifer has now completed its first full-length. V is set for an October 30 release on Keenan's own Puscifer Entertainment. And I bet you're thinking the songs on V are going to have nice little titles like "Sunshine and Bunnies" and "My Favorite Birthday." Yeah, right. Try the Puscifer original "Cuntry Boner" and a cover of the Circle Jerk's "World Up My Ass." Helping Keenan with all the filthy fun are guests such as Milla Jovovich, ex-Nine Inch Nail Danny Lohner, Lisa Germano, Alan Moulder, Trey Gunn of King Crimson, Tim Alexander of Primus, and Jonny Polonsky.
Thought on what the cover will consist of?
