Hi,
I know quite a bit of Patton's output. To me his most interesting thing he took 
part in is Mr.Bungle. Beside that you can meet him at Faith No More, Fantomas, 
various John Zorn projects, Tomahawk, or just solo albums to name a few.
Mr Bungle with its variousnes ranging from metal-funk-ska, through avantgarde, 
Morricone-like soundtracks, techno, trash metal to sleazy-smokey pop all mixed 
and fast changing in intensive musical kaleidoscope crazy drama -gives the 
listener quite an entertaining time.
With all that variousnes Mr.Bungle can be appreciated somehow by FZ late 
70-early 80-ies fans (I guess). 
There was a time in the ninenties I was very much under its spell. Recently 
when I gotten back to it I was not that much impressed, perhaps I'm getting 
older or just wasn't in a right mood for that.
Anyway it's worth of checking out (imo).
Damn I'm gonna give it a spin tonight!!! 
If curious start with their most ambitious "Disco Volante" then go for 
"Mr.Bungle" and then "California"...or  the other way round.  
Mike is a very good singer having dynamite like vocal abilities etc. etc.
Just my two cents...
Have a nice weekend
Bart

I met a guy this weekend who was talking about Mike Patton quite
positively. Any members know him and have an opinion on his stuff?
