      Sometimes I look at pictures and videos of Mike Patton, and I think to myself, “this guy is a fucking robot, because it looks like he never sleeps.”

    • I gotta tell ya, Mike, I’d much prefer to see a Faith No More show or two (maybe even a new album?) than listen to this no doubt good-intentioned but ultimately throwaway novelty record. Even Mr. Bungle, Tomahawk, or Fantomas (in that order) would be a big improvement.

      Roddy Bottum hinted to some big news on the horizon in FNM world, that tells me U.S. tour is iminent, as far as new material, FNM seems like a fully-functional band right now, The fact that Patton had a million other projects is par for the course and doesn’t mean that a FNM album won’t happen. I gotta agree with dirtdsgndotcom to an extent. Almost everything Patton touches is gold (Tomahawk – Anonymous, blows), looking forward to Mondo Cane, and new FNM. Let’s get a little discussion going. Name your top 10 Mike Patton albums. Here’s mine,

      1. Faith No More – King For A Day, Fool For A Lifetime
      2. Faith No More – Album of the Year
      3. Tomahawk – Tomahawk
      4. Mr Bungle – Mr. Bungle
      5. Fantomas – The Directors Cut
      6. Dillinger Escape Plan – Irony Is A Dead Scene
      7. Faith No More – Angel Dust
      8. Mr. Bungle – California
      9. Faith No More – The Real Thing
      10. Peeping Tom – Peeping Tom

      List was actually harder than I thought it would, be. Love all Patton except Tomahawk – Anonymous, but these were the ones that really stuck out
