    Mike Patton

    Mike Patton is one of the most creative artist around IMO. I think he is one of the most talented people in music today.
    This guy's recording output is amazing. Mr. Bungle, Fantômas, Tomahawk, Peeping Tom, General Patton, the list goes on and on. The number of projects he has going on at any given time is unreal and he's done most everything on his own terms. Hell, Patton launched his own record label, "Ipecac" so he could do all his work without having to find label support.

    Anytime I play his stuff around friends or people at work the response is almost always swift and to the point. It's either what the fuck is that, turn that shit off. Or who the fuck is that, that is brilliant.

    Anyone else with me or do ya think Patton has lost a marble or two.
    I'm curious if the opinions here are as sharply divided as they are among my crowd.

    He tries too hard. I enjoyed some FNM, but most of his material is really fucked up. The Angel Dust album was just nоise.

      His music is really out there thats for sure. You never know what your going to get from one minute to the next.
      Thats what I like so much about it though. He's never boring and pushes the boundaries of the music in each song. Its interesting the way he puts so many styles and sounds into the music. Sometimes it works, other times it doesnt. This music is definitely an acquired taste.

          Excellent thread Tiki!

          I think Patton is a genius. In FNM he brought great lyrics and, more importantly, a vocal style that most rock bands wouldn't have thought of: he wasn't all about wailing and vibrato....

          And if anyone doesn't think he can sing, check out FNM cover of "Easy"!

          His side projects are bizarre in many ways, you either get it or you don't - but you can never doubt that he's creative, and prodcutive. No-one sounds like him, and it's not like you can listen to anything he's done and spot the influences as the record progresses, its like he's taken everything he likes and mixed it up so its unrecognisable.

          He's up there with Trent Reznor for me as one of the most important musicians in heavy music...

              Mike's a weirdo albeit a likeable weirdo. I like most of his stuff but Tiki isn't allowed to listen to Fantomas in my presence. I just can't take that shit.

              On a side note, rumor has it that FNM's fudge-packin' keyboard player Roddy Bottom's real name is Dylan Lee Roth. Mikey refused to bend him over during the filming of the "Easy" video and Dylan hates him for it.

                  Red light in amsterdam is like myrtle beach..at least some parts of it..lol

                  At myrtle beach I helped a stingray deliver 6 young ones.
                  My dad caught the mother.
                  I thought they layed eggs.

                              I have an audio recording of a show he did in SoCal about 3 weeks ago with Peeping Tom.

                              Pretty amazing stuff!

                              I think he is a genius, though I am not a big fan.
