We talk with puscifer's mjkeenan as the band's long-awaited Existential Reckoning tour hits Austin.
: What does the rest of your week look like before you head out on the road with Puscifer?: I gotta get to Vegas and do rehearsals. We’re gonna get going on rehearsals ASAP. I think the band’s already rehearsing. I was just recovering from the jetlag.That’s kind of what we do as artists. We observe, interpret and then report.
It’s a pendulum, these changes we go through. It’s like a big, huge pendulum and it swings left and right. And eventually it finds its balance. That’s what nature does, even in forgetting that we’re part of nature. That’s why we think it might never end. But we are part of this marvel, and that balance will be struck. So whatever changes are coming, it will find balance with or without us. – Maynard James Keenan: Yeah. Like I said, I’ve been out since January, and now it’s time to go.
