Puscifer released their fifth album, Normal Isn’t on February 6th, 2026.  Not only are we getting a new album, we’ve got a video for “Bad Wolf” and the film Normal Isn’t: Live at the Pacific Stock Exchange (available February 9th, 2026).  Frontman and vocalist Maynard James Keenan (Tool and A Perfect Circle) with Carina Round (vocals) and bandmates Mat Mitchell (guitars and production), Gunner Olsen (drums), and Josh Moreau (bass) have really created something stunning with t

What inspired the concept for the music video?   I wanted to bring light to the song, as it is a pretty heavy topic and I thought what better place than a music store.
