Faith No More's smash single from 'The Real Thing' was released thirty three years ago on January 29th 1990 "Mean, Vicious, chunky and Funky, Faith No More continue to break barriers with their brain-scrambling amalgamation of seemingly counteracting styles. Rap with Metal? No problem mate. Funk with Hardcore overtones? Faith No More have it in hand. Hell, there's even a classical piano break at the end!

His magnificent vocal fluidity, manic stage persona, tongue in cheek lyrics and frat boy good looks helped to catapult FNM from alternative college-radio cool dudes to award winning mainstream subverts.

Faith No More performed at the second Brazilian festival Rock In Rio thirty two years ago on January 20th 1991. By the end of 1990 FNM's music was achieving huge success with platinum album sales and head lining tours.

In 1985 headliners such as Queen, AC/DC and Yes had prompted the erection of The City of Rock stadium to house the one million people who attended the ten-day-lo

Faith No More released their debut single We Care A Lot on January 18th 1988. With it's thwacking drums , bass and heavy guitars. Faith No More's debut single, released in 1988, is funk metal with added punk sensibilities -both in the raw, untutored vocals of Chuck Mosley, the manic singer later replaced by Mike Patton, and in its gloatingly non-PC lyrics.
