Epic, last cup of sorrow, ashes to ashes were my favourite songs.

Mile Patton was a vocal genius.

He still is a vocal genius when he sings. Epic, falling to Pieces and From Out Of Nowhere are my favourite. But how could you go past Epic?

I've got the Best Of, as well as The Real Thing, Angel Dust, King For A Day, and Album Of The Year.

All of them are good in their own right, but I think that King For A Day is the true standout.

Great band! :clap:

Patton's one of the modern musical greats, no doubt it
I prefer his other projects but Faith No More are one of the most influential bands of the past 20 years

Yah, easily my favourite band ever!

Every album is bloody tops, even the Chuck Moseley era stuff I liked. he was the worst vocalist ever but some of his lyrics were good, in kind of a sarcastic way.

Favourite album is The Real Thing, with Angel Dust second. Favourite track would be Falling to Pieces, with Zombie Eaters and Just a Man coming in after.

RESPECT!!!

And I think that FNM are a lot better than Patton's other bands (all of which I like) which is a testament to how good Gould, Bordin, Bottom etc were.

My only regret in life is never seeing them. Their last tour here I was 12 and didn't know them well... :(

I only got into them after they broke up, big disappointment that I didn't see them. Angel Dust is the best CD but my favourite tracks are 'Digging the Grave', 'Last to Know', 'Everything's Ruined' and the rare track 'Absolute Zero'.

Is that "This Guy's In Love With You" by Burt Bacharach? That was an awesome cover! Recorded live in Sydney in 1997 where I wasn't there :cry:

FNM were a great f**kin band :clap: . One of my faves, Patton is a freak and a genius. I never got to see them live which is a shame, but Ive seen Patton at work with his other bands quite alot.

Their best stuff wasn't the singles they released or the stuff on Who Cares Alot. Get King for a Day and Angeldust, they are two of their best albums i reckon.

I was lucky enough to catch them live in Auckland in '93 on the Angel Dust (my fave FNM album) tour when big Jim Martin was still in the band, they were awesome. I even got laid after the concert, what a night! :p

I hadnt heard any of their songs until the other day when i decided to look for a song from black hawk down that always caught my attention. It is when the delta and rangers are kitting up for the assault on the bakara markets, you then here this cool bass intro, i have always loved that part. The song is called fall to pieces. Dont like the vocals though, not heavy enough for me.. But i love the intro.

they really remind me of my younger years drinking in pubs say 12 years ago. missed em every time they came out, which is a shame now they have split up. mu pic of their best songs.

kindergarten,be aggressive, last cup of sorrow,stipsearch.... and i love nearly every song off angel dust and album of the year.
the chuck mosely stuff was good too...even though he had such a nasaly voice
