Their songs can be quirky, melancholy and even depressing, but along with Keenan's main band, A Perfect Circle has been met with considerable critical and commercial success. Sometime Tool/Fishbone guitar tech Billy Howerdel is responsible for the songwriting, while Keenan adds his uniquely eccentric lyrics and Paz Lenchantin her ethereal musicianship to the band's work.
The rumor-mill attached to a band of as much cult popularity as Tool is always active, and when fans received word of a potential spin-off project, anticipation began to grow. The group, which is considered by critics to be an extension of Tool, actually is not. A Perfect Circle is less dark than Tool. A Perfect Circle's debut show took place at Los Angeles' Viper Club in August 1999 and Mer De Noms appeared the following spring. Howerdel, who had previously co-written for Smashing Pumpkins and Nine Inch Nails, had crafted an epic, surreal set of songs and Tool fans adopted A Perfect Circle with relish. The album set a new record for the highest-ever debut entry for a new band, entering the Billboard chart at number 4. Keenan subsequently returned to Tool to record "Lateralus," their hit album of 2001. Hit songs include --
