The discography of A Perfect Circle, an alternative rock American supergroup, consists of three studio albums, a video album, eight singles and ten music videos. A Perfect Circle is the brainchild of Billy Howerdel.Sculley, Alan. [http://www.csindy.com/gyrobase/Content?oid=oid%3A28256 A little on edge] "Colorado Springs Independent". Retrieved on September 12, 2008.] After hearing demos of Howerdel's music, Maynard James Keenan, the lead singer of Tool, offered his services as vocalist. Howerdel agreed, and the band formed in 1999. They were then joined by bassist/violinist Paz Lenchantin, guitarist Troy Van Leeuwen, formerly of Failure, and drummer Tim Alexander, formerly of Primus. Soon after entering the studio to record their first album, Alexander was replaced by Josh Freese of The Vandals. "Mer de Noms" was released in May 2000, selling 188,000 copies its debut week.

While preparing for their second album, Lenchantin and Van Leeuwen left the band to pursue other projects.
