Links for a day… (vol.24)

  • Especially for FNMgetsthehose on Twitter, the legendary scene about Mike Patton in All My Children from August 2006. The writer is obviously quite a fan.
    [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CGex5VZB7T4]
  • As we mentioned back in June, highlights from Faith No More’s performance at the Hurricane Festival in Germany will be featured on ZDF’s theaterkanal on Wednesday 5 August. The 45-minute show will feature highlights from Faith No More’s and Nine Inch Nails’ sets. We’ll post a reminder and details of how to watch this online next week.
  • Some clips from Faith No More’s Download show are now being aired on VH1 Classic and online here.
  • The buzz is already building for the second leg of Faith No More’s Second Coming tour.  Romanian site Metalhead reports on a Faith No More special featuring “three hours of video projections and audio” on 7 August. More details here.
  • And there’s a somewhat bizarre competition to win tickets for Faith No More’s concert in Santiago, Chile on 30 October here.
  • Mike Patton has yet to be approached to again lend his vocal talents to a sequel to the Darkness video game, according to Destructoid.

Links for a day… (vol.23)

Posted on July 24, 2009 by The Editor
  • Faith No More could play a second date in Santiago, Chile in October. Leading Chile newspaper La Tercera is reporting that huge demand for Faith No More’s concert on 30 October could lead to an extra date on 29 October.
  • The details of the support acts and set times for Faith No More’s gig in Bucharest on 15 August have been revealed. The support acts are Superhiks (Macedonia), Elvis Jackson (Slovenia) and Luna Amara (Romania). FNM will be on stage at 21.45. More details here.
  • There is a competition to win tickets for that gig on the same website here.
  • Roddy Bottum is having a second reunion – this time with Imperial Teen. He tweeted: “Reunited! With Imperial Teen! Confused! Elated!”
  • The well-written and passionately argued Metal Bastard website is running a countdown of the best metal albums of the 1990s. Faith No More’s King for a Day.. comes in at number 13. Sample quote: “Where Angel Dust was a fascinating exploration of mixing up everything at once, King For A Day… is almost entirely polarised. In the past they might’ve squeezed three different genres into the same song, here every style gets a track of its own. Much of this album isn’t far from what singer Mike Patton was doing in Mr. Bungle at the time, perhaps because Bungle guitarist Trey Spruance played on it.”
  • A quite technical story on web streaming here but it does reveal that 23,ooo people watched live streaming of Faith No More’s Download festival performance.
  • Photos here of Chuck Mosley’s recent Milwaukee solo show.

Faith No More Reunited fan video

Posted on June 22, 2009 by The Editor

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DQH9FADTUXM&eurl=http%3A%2F%2Ftwitter.com%2F&feature=player_embedded]
Great Reunited remixed video by Steve McQuillen on YouTube- “quite a presentation” was Roddy’s verdict.  It is certainly a labour of love with some great and brilliantly-edited and timed clips of FNM from the past interspersed through the Reunited peformance from Download.

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6vvKnCbyp98&feature=PlayList&p=48D986D3C216B424&index=0]

Set list: 1. Reunited, 2. The Real Thing, 3. From out of Nowhere, 4. Land of Sunshine, 5. Caffeine, 6. Evidence (with some Spanish/Portuguese?), 7. Poker Face / Chinese Arithmetic, 8. Surprise you’re Dead, 9. Easy, 10. Last Cup of Sorrow, 11. Midlife Crisis, 12. Introduce Yourself, 13. Gentle Art of Making Enemies, 14. Take This Bottle, 15. Ashes to Ashes, 16. Malpractice, 17.

Highlight: Patton’s pimp entrance complete with cane was novel but maybe injury-induced while a very, very high-tempo version of Introduce Yourself and the first much-Twittered Poker Face cover will be long recalled.

Faith No More at Download reaction, reviews etc

Posted on June 12, 2009 by The Editor

I was only able to watch the first song of FNM’s Download gig live on the web tonight but there’s plenty around the web now. Indeed, Faith No More are such a hot topic that Faith No More is a top ten Trending Topic on Twitter.

Set list: They played Ashes to Ashes, We Care a Lot and Take This Bottle which weren’t played at Brixton.
[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3944WQrCg2k]

Metal Hammer give a positive review, rating the show as better than Brixton. Sample quote: “The only way to describe this awesome, awe-inspiring set is that it’s everything that it threatened to be.”

Thrash Hits has a short review and a nice photo gallery.

Local paper Nottingham Evening Post have a short review and its far from glowing: “Finally, thousands of us anticipated the second coming of Faith No More. And while a tongue in cheek rendition of Reunited was a nice touch, I personally thought the rest of their show drifted along without much drive apart from brief highlights like Epic.”

Download website blog gives a brief FNM review. Sample quote: “My ears are ringing. Faith No More have just left the stage, and after a colossal set that included the incredible Epic, and covers of Easy, Poker Face and Reunited (which they opened the set with), FNM proved, if there was ever any doubt, that after 11 years out of the limelight, they’ve still got it.”

Virtual Festivals also now have a review. Sample quote: “From the moment Patton hobbled on with a cane, he had the crowd in the palm of his hand, as the band open with a cover of apt crooning classic ‘Reunited’.”

Actually Stubbadub has been all over this on their site and on Twitter. Set list comes from there (I had guessed that Poker Face would be one of the pop samples that Mike P likes to throw in this time round)
1. Reunited
2. The Real Thing
3. From out of Nowhere
4. Land of Sunshine
5. Caffeine
6. Evidence (with some Spanish/Portuguese?)
7. Poker Face / Chinese Arithmetic
8. Surprise you’re Dead
9. Easy
10. Last Cup of Sorrow
11. Midlife Crisis
12. Introduce Yourself
13. Gentle Art of Making Enemies
14. Take This Bottle
15. Ashes to Ashes
16. Malpractice
17. Cuckoo for Caca
18. Be Aggressive
19. Epic
20. Mark Bowen

Encore:
21. Chariots of Fire into Stripsearch
22. We Care a Lot

More clips, pics and reviews to come.
