Jerome, Ariz., Feb. 16, 2016 – Puscifer cross the Atlantic for the first time, kicking off their debut European tour, dubbed The Money $hot Heard Around The World Tour, on May 31 in Manchester, UK.
“UK. Europe. We are coming. Ready your cherries for soon we will be in you.” said Puscifer front man Maynard James Keenan. “We promise to be gentle since this is your first time.”

Puscifer kicked off the Money $hot – Round 1 tour the day after the 10-song album’s release, playing the Monster Mash Festival on Nov. 1 with the next six weeks spent trekking from coast-to-coast presenting sold out performances that marry the concept of concert and theater. The Kansas City Star, in a live review, said “not much emerges from the music world these days that feels genuinely unique, but Puscifer’s Money Shot tour qualifies. Each component of the show was first-rate: the sound mix, the videos, the musical performance and the theatrics. It all added up to a show that was as memorable as it was unique.” Money $hot – Round 2 launches on March 17 in Riverside, Calif. at the Fox Performing Arts Center, with the band crisscrossing the country for another six weeks before heading overseas.
Money $hot was released on Oct. 30 via Keenan’s Puscifer Entertainment. The album landed at #1 on Billboard’s Independent Music chart, #2 on the Alternative Albums chart and #30 on the Top 200. In a four star review, Revolver Magazine described the album as “a meditative and hypnotic – not to mention wholly engaging – offering” and both Crave and Kerrang placed the release on their year end, best of lists, with Crave saying, “The yin and yang of masculine and feminine energy interweave a pulsing eroticism that curls itself around the mind like one of Keenan’s many grapevines.”
