	Amazon.com: Mer de Noms: Music: A Perfect Circle (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		I'm sure many people bought Mer De Noms after hearing Judith on the radio or television and expected the rest of the songs to be just like it, but instead finding them to be much more mellow, and were disappointed.
		Mer De Noms is a five star debut from a very talented band that we'll all be hearing from a lot more.
		Mer de Noms works on many, varying levels and is the culmination of musicians from slightly less metal and more diverse backgrounds arriving at a very fine end product.

	SECTION 3 - a perfect circle "mer de noms"
		There are ballads, background vocals, and a wide variety of instruments on Mer De Noms, A Perfect Circle's debut album.
		Mer De Noms opens with the track "The Hollow" and right away a new Maynard James Keenan is heard.
		I was waiting with great anticipation for Tool's next album, but after hearing Mer De Noms, I'm pretty sure I can wait for another year or two...I don't want Maynard to leave and rush back to something else.

	Mer de Noms - A Perfect Circle
		Therefore, it is fair to question whether an album as thoughtful as Mer de Noms will gain the hearing it deserves in the current cultural environment.
		Like a Beckett narrator, he raged against his own flesh and corruption only because he was all too cognizant of the greater truth which forever danced just out of reach.
		Mer de Noms is a concentrated dose of power-riffing, introspection and theology, and it's one of the best albums of the year 2000.

		Mer De Noms was the most sought after album on the Billboard charts after lead singer Maynard James Keenan's other band Tool, went on hiatus.
		The songs on Mer De Noms explore emotions and life aspects from a deeply abstract and inspirational view.
		Mer De Noms (2000, Virgin) was one of the most remarkable success stories in history.

	Perfect Circle - Mer de Noms Better Than Thirteen Steps? - Rage3D Discussion Area
		Mer de Noms seems to flow pretty well from start to finish.
		Mer de Noms is not about individual tracks for me - but about how well it sounds from start to finish as a complete work.
		Personally I like Mer de Noms better because it is quite flowing, 13 steps, I like only about 65% of the songs with some songs just sounding like what Maynard did with tool when he made random songs that made no sense and generally sounded horrible.

		His is a voice that rages and growls, but can also croon with surprising delicacy, something that has allowed songs like Tool's "Sober," "Jimmy" and so many others their heartwrenching, gutwrenching and unflinching beauty.
		His is the siren's song that pulls us through the Mer de Noms -- the Sea of Names -- the songs on this album -- with such grace and sadness and purity -- with such anguish and fury and intensity.
		It is perhaps the most beautiful song Keenan (who penned the lyrics to all 12 tracks on "Mer de Noms") has ever written.

		During the recording of Tool's Ænima album, he played demos of his music to Tool's singer, Maynard James Keenan, who, although Howerdel originally wanted a female singer, offered himself as vocalist should Howerdel form a band.
		Joined by The Vandals drummer Josh Freese, drummer Tim Alexander of Primus and Laundry, ex- Failure guitarist Troy Van Leeuwen, and bassist/violinist Paz Lenchantin (later of Zwan), the band rehearsed the music that Howerdel had begun and finished their debut album Mer de Noms (French "Sea of Names").
		At this time Tool was tied up in negotiations with their record label, allowing Keenan much time to complete the work.

		For instance at this moment for the life of me I cannot rememebr the lyrics nor basic sounds of "Thomas" eventhough I know for a fact that it's an awesome song, as is the entire cd.
		I was under the impression that Maynard wrote the lyrics to MDN, but he didn't touch the music.
		While not a radical departure from Mer de Noms, there is a real progression here.

	A Perfect Circle (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		Mer de Noms is the debut album of the band A Perfect Circle.
		The liner notes are written in a special cipher invented by the band; the symbols on the front read 'La Cascade des Prenoms' or 'The Waterfall of First Names.' The music, thick and rich, is excruciatingly intense and highly emotional.
		I saw A Perfect Circle live in Washington DC on their North American tour in support of Mer de Noms.

	: : : a perfect circle : : :
		A dramatically powerful album that picks up sonically where Mer De Noms left off, THIRTEENTH STEP is a conceptual exploration of the darker side of the human psyche.
		The introduction of A Perfect Circle on Mer de Noms was that of a side project of Tool.
		Over the development of the project and certainly leading into present, the strength of the A Perfect Circle brand has shifted the balance from "side project" to a "band in their own right".

	Mer De Noms by A Perfect Circle : MusicOutfitter (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		Keenan teamed with Tool guitar tech and A Perfect Circle guitarist/composer Billy Howerdel for MER DE NOMS, which is both a band effort and an engaging hard rock album, recorded while Tool renegotiated with their label and other band members took a break.
		But don't be fooled; A Perfect Circle is more than a one-off side project.The band isn't nearly as brutal as Tool; the musical textures are instead spacious and melodic.
		The track most comparable to Tool's music, "Rose," utilizes rise-and-fall dynamics and unpredictably breaks away to gentle strings, while "Judith" (the album's title is French for "sea of names," hence the song titles), explores free thought and warns against blind faith, and "Orestes" departs from the predominant guitar distortion with moody, powerful results.

		The choice of who else to make up the band was a smart one -- Lenchantin's violin and string arrangements add even further to the air of dark, moody mystery, while Josh Freese's abilities on drums once again come to the fore.
		Alan Moulder adds in some fine help on mixing, polishing the glowering sheen of Mer de Noms to a hard, sharp edge.
		I thought this to be one of the best albums of the year and probably will not get the credit it deserves much like everything else Maynard has done in past years.

		Founded in the late 1990s by Tool frontman Maynard James Keenan and guitar tech Billy Howerdel, A Perfect Circle takes the former group's brooding sonic template and lightens the heavy, prog-rock load with more melodic arrangements and varied instrumentation.
		Although APC originally began as a side-project, the success of the band's debut, MER DE NOMS, led to a follow-up, the gloomy THIRTEENTH STEP.

		With their album Mer De Noms, A Perfect Circle have produced some of the most passionate music heard in a long time.
		Unlike most rock bands, their lyrics are deep and meaningful, and the music shines with creativity, emotion and talent.
		The music and words combined create something so deep and intriquate that the songs take on a new dimension and reveal a new aspect with each listen.

		Instead their manifesto proclaims they're the embodiment of many 'strident musical ideas', and what malignant ideas these turn out to be.
		[img]/img/aperfectcircle0600.jpg[/img] 'Mer De Noms' is the brainchild of Tool's vocalist Maynard Keenan and Billy Howerdel, a NIN, Smashing Pumpkins and Tool collaborator.
		Recorded in a garage, it defies the clichi of that venue, instead sounding like it crawled from a devastated sonic cathedral once graced by Lucifer himself.

	AudioRevolution.com CD Review of A Perfect Circle's MER DE NOMS
		Please don’t get me wrong, I think Tool is one of the most interesting and talented hard rock acts in the last 10 years, but I don’t want to hear a watered-down version.
		Sonically, ‘Mer De Noms’ is above average, but it is by no means stellar – its sound is a little too bright for me. I would have liked to hear this album mixed with more emphasis on the low end.
		I have never seen such an aggressive street ad campaign for an album since Puff Daddy’s horrible flop of an album ‘Forever.’ ‘Mer De Noms’ debuted at #4, selling over 200,000 copies, the highest first-week sales total for a rock record.

		This review is meant to give specifics on the EDITED VERSION of "Mer De Noms." The Explicit Content label on the normal version of this CD was due to a sole lyric in the song "Judith" (there was no swearing anywhere else on the album).
		So only one song needed any editing, and it has been taken care of nicely and effectively on this version of the CD.

		The band was later filled out with the addition of Troy Van Leeuwen (ex-Failure, Enemy) on guitar, Paz Lenchantin on bass and Josh Freese (Vandals) on drums.
		On their debut effort, Mer de Noms, the band serves up a strong album that is sure to please Tool and heavy metal fans alike, as well as win over fans of edgy alternative rock.
		A Perfect Circle rocks with all the foundation-crumbling intensity of Tool, which they prove on "Thomas," "Magdalena" and the complex, powerhouse first single "Judith," but they also show a newfound sensitive side.

	Amazon.ca: Mer De Noms [Explicit Lyrics]: Music (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		While Tool's uncompromising take on industrial goth metal have taken them so far, Keenan clearly dreams of bigger things: there are moments on Mer De Noms, notably "Rose", that are in meaningful danger of being confused with Jethro Tull and others, which call to mind the most wretched excesses of Whitesnake.
		Though there are plenty of worse metal albums out there, it is hard to imagine what conceivable use Mer De Noms will serve.
		Mmmmm, Mer de Noms sat in my CD player for a good three weeks, and more often than not I'd be hitting replay at the end.

		No one was quite sure what to expect when Maynard Keenan of Tool teamed up with Billy Howerdel, a top producer/ musician whose credits includework with Smashing Pumpkins, David Bowie and Nine Inch Nails.
		No one expected the group's debut, Mer De Noms, to storm the charts and mark the history books as the highest entry ever for a debut rock album.
		The phenomenal success was partially due to Maynard's devoted fan base as well as the intense support from radio and television.
