After 14 years the rock supergroup A Perfect Circle are releasing their fourth album ‘Eat The Elephant‘ via BMG on April 20th. Their 2017 tour which inspired them to bring forth new material for the new album. Since October 2017 they have released two new tracks, ‘The Doomed‘ and ‘Disillusioned‘. During this period the date of the album’s release kept changing, until February 5th with ‘TalkTalk‘, when the date was officially announced for the 20th April. Frontman Maynard James Keenan stated:
“Although I’m extremely excited to finally be completing this album after a 14-year hiatus, I’m actually more excited that its intentional release date is serving a greater purpose. The 20th of April is Carina Round’s birthday. She is a dear friend who is extremely difficult to shop for. Pressure off. Of course, I must also note that the potheads are gonna be thrilled that this album comes out on 4-20. May it serve as a glorious soundtrack to accompany all of the giggling and vexing sounds of nibbling and snacking. Fingers crossed, Cheech & Chong will be proud.”
