Maynard James Keenan doesn't do many interviews. But when he does, one thing is certain: it is never your run of the mill chit chat. Last October, SuicideGirls hopped a plane to the Tool frontman's Arizona vineyard and got some amazing insights into winemaking, his creative process, and his latest multimedia, multi-personality project, Puscifer. More recently, last week Maynard stopped by SGHQ for some lively conversation about Puscifer's newest album, V is for Viagra: the Vagina Remixes, out today, April 29th.

"I, personally, have only done Viagra once," Maynard revealed. "I took a half a tab and it did nothing. Later that night I took the other half and it did nothing. By the time it actually kicked in I was actually at the airport going through security. Not a fun situation."

With V is for Viagra, Maynard wanted to "abandon the idea of the songs being finite" and enlisted an array of musicians to tackle the remixes including Paul Barker (Ministry), Lustmord, Michael Patterson, Aaron Turner (Isis), Danny Lohner (Nine Inch Nails), and Dave Ogilvie (Skinny Puppy), among others. With titles like "Desert Porn Mix", "Disco Viagra Mix", "Guns for Hire Mix", and "Dirty Robot Mix", the resulting tracks are as varied and unique as the minds that created them.

James and Chloe Suicide sat down with Maynard at SGHQ where he answered a few questions about the remixes, Puscifer's touring plans, and the new "DoZo" music video, which confirms that dildos do in fact make excellent weapons.

Watch the hilarity ensue and check out Puscifer's YouTube for a special, alternate version...
