Puscifer
When: 12th June 2023
Location: O2 Academy
Born somewhere in the Arizona desert, Puscifer is an electro-rock band, multimedia experience, traveling circus, and alien abduction survivors. Coming to Glasgow’s O2 Academy on 12th June 2023.
The group’s catalog consists of three full-length studio albums. “V” is for Vagina [2007] and Conditions of My Parole [2011]. As well as Money Shot [2015]. In addition to a series of EPs and remixes. Beyond the core trio of Maynard James Keenan [vocals], Mat Mitchell [guitar, production], and Carina Round [vocals, song-writing], the group’s ever-evolving ecosystem encompasses a cast of characters such as Billy D and his wife Hildy Berger, Major Douche ,Special Agent Dick Merkin, and many more. Meanwhile, the moniker’s origins can be traced toa 1995 episode of the HBO classic Mr. Show where Keenan first utilized the name “Puscifer.”
In addition to tallying tens of millions of streams and views, they’ve piqued the curiosity of press. Entertainment Weekly christened them, “Exceptionally groovy,” and Revolver fittingly described them as “indescribable.” Renowned for an immersive live show, the group’s performances blur the lines between concert and theatre, traversing the dusty American South-west with Billy D and Hildy or the sweaty squared circle with Luchadores. They’ve brought this to life everywhere from Coachella to Bonnaroo. On Existential Reckoning, Puscifer track Billy D back to the desert and, just maybe, uncover the truth about aliens once and for all.
