Title: The Mike Patton / Ipecac Records Thread

So way back in 1992 (I was 10 at the time) a little film called "Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey" came out to a delighted me.  On the soundtrack, which I bought, was a Faith No More song, and a great one at that.  That started me on the damn path and I've been a Patton fan ever since.  I honestly think that he is the most important (read: not the BEST) and varied rock vocalist of our time.  I love his work with Merzbow (She) and Iuke Mori  (Hemopheliac).  Really love his two solo works as well.  When Fantomas is good it is really good and that new(er) Kaada colaboration is fantastic.

Also, he's more or less a total smug asshole.  

So...there's that too.

Tomahawk is ok.

And his stuff with DEP is their least worst stuff.

I'm totally out of Patton Praise.

Dear Mr Patton

Please have my love babies

Yours Sincerely

Norma


ummmm yeah I really really adore Mike Patton and the versatility of his voice is amazing! Me and my friends constantly refer to him as the rock/metal band whore because he really does get around :-P I must admit to loving Tomohawk and Faith No More but I do find Fantomas a little bit too weird *goes off to listen to patton playlist*

Where I tend to prefer Mr. Bungle and Fantomas to be his best stuff simply because they're weirder.



and Patton rules.

Mike Patton was kicked out of a nightclub in my hometown for violating himself with a microphone on stage after he'd had one too many.

I think that pretty much sums up everything I'd ever need to say about him.  I liked his work with Loveage.

Yesterday I just listened to some sound samples from "General Patton Vs. The X-ecutioners" for the first time and I am impressed. Excellent turntable workage mixes really well with crazy Mike Patton singage.

I think the appeal and draw to main man Mike is that he plays a lot of different styles and sings in a huge variance of ways, and he does it without being too serious. He's hugely talented, but he doesn't waste his talent. He uses just the right amount to not make his music total masturbation, but enough that it's complex and multi-layered and you have to chew on it for a while before you can swallow.

See, anybody who can make someone say "Hey, DEP don't suck as much with him involved!" is obviously the man ten times over.
