Man, I love them bastards.

I like Patton's work with Zorn, but haven't heard anything else he's done. I didn't even know he was a musician with any sort of mainstream connection until a few years ago.

I heard about this. Jim Martin (or as Rollins once called him "the idiot who looks like the other idiot in Ministry") probably won't be part of it, but he wasn't on the last two albums either and I liked those enough. But he was on Angel Dust which is probably the best metal album ever recorded. #1 on my list anyway - following up a funk-metal radio hit album with an album called Angel Dust containing songs with titles like Crack Hitler and Jizzlobber, with a color picture of the inside of a slaughterhouse on the back cover, and an opening track consisting almost exclusively of lyrics taken from a Scientology personality test, and making it all rock to holy hell...I sometimes forget how fucking brilliant it all was.

Anyway, it's a bummer they're not playing in the US.

Yeah. The new line-up is the same as the last one: Patton-Hudson-Gould-Bordin-Bottum. Angel Dust is brilliant, but King For A Day (95) and The Album Of The Year (97) are worth checking out as well.

Here's a toe tapper. The track Caffeine off the album Angel Dust.

I don't know what that is and I don't like it.

Caffeine was my personal anthem from about 1994-1997 due to my excessive consumption of same during that time. The legend (which turned out to be true) that Patton wrote it while conducting a sleep-deprivation experiment endeared me to it as well. I don't know if a 14 year old punk ass kid like myself was really that CD's target audience, but man, that CD flipped my lid at a young age.

I love the slower stuff off the later albums - Evidence, Stripsearch, Helpless, Take This Bottle, etc, especially since they usually contrasted it with complete near-unlistenable-to-untrained-ears insanity like Cuckoo For Caca, Mouth To Mouth, and Ugly In The Morning (chorus: "Doooooon't look at me I'M UGLY IN THE MORNING! Doooooooooon'tlookatmeI'mUGLYINTHEMORNING!").

Another Body Murdered off the Judgment Night soundtrack (with some rap group called Boo-YAA Tribe) is crucial as well.

I just heard that on shuffle yesterday. IMMENSE song.

I don't care at all, they were a stinkin' ballbag of a band.

Does that mean... good? Because Faith No More is really good.

Hmmm, could be a moot point.

haven't even THOUGHT of FNM in 100 years...

i remember seeing in NYC @ Ritz or Irving Plaza (can't remember which) back in the late 80s or so...

what a great show... Royal Crescent Mob, Faith No More, RHCP... it was awesomeness!

Late 80s...was the singer Mosley (the dreadlocked guy) or Patton (the guy who can actually sing)?

Chuck Mosley actually owns a restaurant in Cleveland, last I heard...Fun story about him, he apparently passed out in a drunken stupor at their major label record release party. They got Patton after that and the rest is history.

Mosley had a certain charm - comparisons to early PiL seem apt. But the band just took such colossal leaps and bounds forward with the addition of Patton that it's almost two different bands.
