I’ve seen Faith No More twice - once in '93 and once in '95. Both times they were average at best. I absolutely love Angel Dust (like the majority here) but find most of their other releases to be something of a mixed bag. King For A Day is particularly hit and miss.
Saw Bungle twice and both times they blew my head off - especially the second time. They are second only to The Boredoms in terms of stage presence. Such a shame they are no longer with us.
Fantomas I’ve seen three times - the first was forgettable, the second was mind blowing and the third was ok.
As for his other projects - Lovage is stupid, Peeping Tom leaves me stratching my head in bewilderment and Tomahawk is alterna-rock nonsense. Maldoror (his album with Merzbow) is a great buy for those interested but don’t expect any ‘pop’ stuff there.
Sometimes I think Patton is a genius, sometimes I think he’s a jack of all trades and master of none. He’ll try absolutely anything just to see what sticks and what doesn’t. I guess he doesn’t like to do one particular thing for two long.
And as for the reunion, I really think it’s a load of unnecessary bollocks.
