Faith No More Released 'Digging The Grave' 25 Years Ago!
The first single from Faith No More's fifth studio album King For A Day Fool For A Lifetime was released on February 28th 1995. Twenty five years ago we were awaiting the arrival of the new Faith No More record King For A Day Fool For A Lifetime - several nervous ideas were pulsating around our brain boxes. Would it measure up against it's masterpiece of a predecessor Angel Dust ? How would it work out without the grinding axe work of big sick and ugly guitarist Jim Martin?

Listen To ‘Science in Modern America’ The New Single From Buzz Osborne feat Trevor Dunn

Listen To 'Thermal Drift' From Bill Gould’s Talking Book II Released On April 24th
Talking Book is the soundscape project featuring Bill Gould, Jared Blum and Dominic Cramp. Their 2011 album was a fantastic abstract expressionistic recording which plays likes the soundtrack to a movie. It is dark and atmospheric yet still has an underlying warmth with rich textures and distinctive melodies. "It’s got a lot of subtle melodies and shifts parts a lot and progresses. There’s movement to it, so you kind of go down this sink hole with us." - Blum 2016 You can rea

Mike Patton and Toodles
Shit terrorist was the phrase coined by Mike Patton himself in 1992 t describe his unsanitary behaviour, but hidden amongst the turd eating and golden showers was a more unnerving storyline... During 1992 Patton shed his weather worn pin-up frat boy skin and emerged as a scruffy thrift shop degenerate who rather unexpectedly stole our hearts. His lovable cartoon character antics were replaced by stomach churning mischief that gave us all a laugh at the expense of stereotype r

The Faith No More and Korn Connection
FNM and Korn will embark on a huge 26 date of North America and Canada in the summer of 2020, we examine their history together. Faith No More have always vehemently refused to take any responsibility for inspiring the 90s alternative movement of nu-metal, where-as Korn reluctantly take credit for inventing it. Both bands suffered from hapless pigeon-holing by the music press who were unable to define their unique sounds and had to invent labels for convenience - FNM funk met

Rumours have been circulating that the recent live line up of Mr. Bungle will re-record their 1985 demo cassette Raging Wrath of the Easter Bunny Have we now got concrete evidence? As Scott Ian posts a picture on social media of himself playing a Baritone guitar through a Plasma pedal.

When Faith No More Met Tom Jones
On February 18th 2010 Faith No More performed at the Vector Arena in Auckland, New Zealand. FNM shared the same hotel as welsh crooner Tom Jones, who performed at A Day On The Green on February 21st. Stuff Nz From evoking the spirit of Tom Jones and having a mid-stage nap, to picking up a megaphone and using it to amplify his voice, Patton showed his talent for the bizarre. He also has one of the most versatile voices in rock and that was what the near-capacity Vector audienc

Restoring past glory: Mike Patton's pumped about Faith No More touring
This story is not about Mr Bungle. So you have to marvel at the old geezer's timing. As Mike Patton paces his home/studio in San Francisco, answering his phone to talk for the first time in five years about Faith No More, his older band is foremost on his mind. "I'm prepping to leave on tour tomorrow … so I've kind of been in that weird state," he explains. "Complete chaos." The very brief, US-only Bungle reunion is remarkable for a typically perverse reason. "We're only play

Faith no more | Kerrang! - February 10th 1990
We're worried. Very worried. It's Monday morning, and IRISH JAEGA should've returned from her weekend on-the-road jaunt with FAITH NO MORE. She should be at her desk, diligently sub-editing the latest spectacular instalment of 'The Week In Metal'. But she ain't. She's nowhere to be found. Suddenly, Geoff Barton's telephone rings. FNM guitarist BIG SICK UGLY JIM MARTIN is on the line. "We have stolen your journalist! We have some Bic razors, and we are going to shave every hai

mc50 | RAC Arena Perth, February 8th 2020
Bill Gould has rejoined Wayne Kramer's MC50 to tour Australia in February The first gig down under supporting Alice Cooper was on Saturday February 8th at the RAC Arena in Perth. The Rockpit Before Alice takes to the stage though let’s not forget the rather fine warm-up acts. Firstly, if like me, you have lived with ‘that’ album all your life but only ever heard of the legend of Wayne Kramer and Detroit’s MC5 then MC50 (should that be MC52 this year?) is a complete revelation

Mr. Bungle | The Warfield, February 8th 2020
All Techies, Codgers, Millennials and LGBTQs welcome to thrash! No Rambos. I attended the final Mr. Bungle show on September 9th at Rock City in Nottingham twenty years ago. So when it was announced that they would return in 2020 - fate, destiny or a very understanding wife decided I would be at one of these shows. It was my life-long curiosity of San Francisco, the city that gave birth to and nurtured FNM, that determined which show. It is fascinating how fans of Bungle hail

Composer Danny Elfman Praises Mike Patton
Celebrated composer of film scores Danny Elfman attended the third Mr. Bungle show in Los Angeles on Friday and shared a photo on instagram with some complimentary words on Patton. Mr. Bungle show last night! Really amazing. Mike Patton is insane. (Insanely talented!) I'd love to steal his voice. I know there are others who can sing with the ferocity of an angry grizzly bear seized by the spirit of a psychopathic banshee... and there are others who can also croon with the ver
