You know there’s something wrong with our, society’s that is, relationship with technology when a song and video like A Perfect Circle’s “Disillusioned” gets made. And the subject of this video goes far beyond some musicians on-stage temper tantrum because fans have their phones out during a concert (which I agree, is really annoying).
The song and the Alex Howard-directed video are insanely beautiful with a pretty heavy message, one that transcends race, creed, color, orientation, etc. True that the world has been a mess for a long time and how we treat one another has rarely been with absolute kindness, but it might just help our current climate if we at least tried to reconnect with humanity.
You’ll be able to find the track on A Perfect Circle’s forthcoming fourth full-length album, Eat the Elephant, which will be released on April 20th. The video was released in conjunction with the arrival of the limited-edition 10-inch single of “The Doomed” and “Disillusioned.” The collectible vinyl has a dual pressing of both songs on side A and a screen-printed B-side. Order one of the few remaining copies from the band here or pick one up at select retailers.
Eat the Elephant pre-orders — which offer instant downloads of “TalkTalk,” “Disillusioned,” and “The Doomed” — are available here. The 12-song album is available in multiple formats including digital, CD, double-gatefold 180-gram vinyl and a box set with both the vinyl and CD as well as a prism and custom playing card deck. In advance of Record Store Day, a limited-edition independent retail exclusive version of the LP on white 180-gram vinyl with alternate cover will also be available.
