A Perfect Circle brought together Maynard James Keenan of Tool and Billy Howerdel, along with a rotating lineup of musicians from bands like Nine Inch Nails and Smashing Pumpkins.
Formed in 1999, their debut album Mer de Noms (MAIR duh NOHMZ) dropped in 2000 and went Platinum in the U.S.
They followed it with Thirteenth Step in 2003—another massive success.
This wasn’t just a side project… it was one of the most successful supergroups of the 2000s.
Part 8 of the Top 20 Supergroups of All Time.
