On April 17th, Puscifer will premiere a highly anticipated new streaming event "Billy D and the Hall of Feathered Serpents featuring 'Money $hot' by Puscifer." The theatrical, luchador-filled concert film will feature the 2016 album played in full. Ahead of the broadcast, Revolver caught up with ringleader Maynard James Keenan to discuss a wide range of topics: Would he ever suit up as a luchador himself? Would his other bands consider virtual concerts? How has he recovered from COVID-19 — twice? Where are we in the saga of Billy D, and what the fuck's up with the mysterious briefcase?

    Maynard is one of my favorite musicians, artist, inspirations, and people.

    Puscifer is getting some recognition...finally. how they have managed to put out such good music and stay under the radar seems by design perhaps.
  • I saw Puscifer live on the Conditions of My Parole tour. Awesome. It was presented just as he described the Talking Heads show. And I always wondered where he got the idea. And being a live sound engineer I was stunned by all the technical planning needed and implemented for this show. It was a large theater/hall stage, empty but for Corrina and Maynard singing upstage center, just two mic stands and the two of them. Then, over a short time, came the mini Airstream, pulled by hand, and out came the guitar player and his rig, a campfire, grill, chairs, the works, while upstage left a hay wagon rolled out, again, pulled by hand, and I think it had the kit on it, plus maybe the bass rig, but bottom line was that we, the whole audience, watched a stage production get built in real time before our eyes while simultaneously performing without any gap in music and also blowing our minds with the beautiful Americana feel yet making a parody of the whole moronic, ignorant, undereducated, “ignorance is bliss” shone clear as an azure sky. Puscifer. Yes.

    When covid stops, you gotta make more documentaries. I loved the series you did with Maynard showing us around his hometown.

    "Wer're just as confused as you are. Just enjoy the ride." I f'n adore this guy.
  • Alright.. I’m ready for another concert!! My 4 and 6 year old can’t get enough of Tool, a perfect circle and Puscifer.. we need to bring light and realism back to this world!
  • Is there any significance to the new album coming out on your birthday? "Yes." Would you care to share with us what that might be? "No." That's fucking peak Maynard right there folks! 😉

    The more MJK interviews I see, the more it's proven to me that nobody can interview him and bring him out of his shell, like Joe Rogan
  • Was positively surprised as the interview went on and her questions were more well researched and in depth than i expected them to be (y)
  • @BlackwaterBronn
    Thank You Everyone for the time you put into this and doing something for the fan's. Have a good one.
  • @PCamron90
    I can't believe Maynard brought up Adventure Time and Rick & Morty
  • Both shows were incredible, very glad I sprung for the tickets. Can't wait for the next one!
  • @rafaelrosas830
    Maynard is amazing, really everything he does is great, this latest puscifer album is a masterpiece....
  • @calebbrown4187
    Maynard has a certain degree of humility that begs empathy, but if I had a fraction of his success or talent, I think I'd be stepping out with all the swagger of Henry Rollins or Phil during their prime. Maynard is such a skilled antagonist. I hope he doesn't let this ability go unused.
  • @m1keway266
    My favorite artist, Maynard is an amazing person.
  • @hamm3790
    Maynard and his music is very inspirational. I sold my house to buy a truck and trailer to free myself from the upside down matrix. My trailer's name is Lateralus. My freedom and wings to explore, grow, enjoy the ride and keep going :)
