The best singer in Modern Rock today. He fronts the bands "Tool" and "A Perfect Circle". His lyrics are deep and thought provoking and his vocals are desperately chilling.

The lead singer of the music bands, Tool and A Perfect Circle. Known to study and write his songs about or relating to his beliefs <i>Qabalah,</i> and he doesn't fall into the mainstream fake music of today and most music from the past. Maynard is real.
One of Maynard's songs, The Patient, number three on his latest Tool cd, Lateralus is basically about how he doesnt want people to just go to his concerts and buy his music and not know what your doing. He wants people to listen to his words and understand them, he doesnt feel he doing enough and may walk away...

How good is Maynard in that Tool song?

Maynard fronts the band tool and a perfect circle. He has a powerful luring voice. He lurs you into the songs. I believe he has a thing for the word "precious" as it is frequently used in both band's songs.
maynard james keenan is my own, my precious.
"Got your hands bound, your head down,
your eyes closed.
You look so precious now."
"What'll it take to get it through to you precious
Over this. Why do you wanna throw it away like this
Such a mess. I don't want to watch you."
"Don't fret precious I'm here,
step away from the window
and go back to sleep"

vocalist for quite possibly the best band ever formed, a band that pretty much reaches musical perfection, also probably the best singer rock music has ever seen.

Pure genius, a rare oddity.It's almost like having an out of body experience when you hear his voice.I have seen him twice, once with Tool, when I was 16, and once this year with A Perfect Circle.It's an audial orgasm every time.
