My three all time favorite bands are Faith No More, Pearl Jam & Tool.
If I had to pick a # 1 it would be FNM for many reasons. They can play almost any style of music & make it sound like their own, they are absolutely fearless in their songwriting, and they are f'ing incredible live.
Mike Patton is hands down my all time favorite singer / performer; Mike Bordin is an amazing drummer who's incredibly difficult to replicate because of how he sets up / plays his kit and Billy Gould, the real brains behind the band writes & plays some of the fiercest bass lines I've heard in my life.
I searched the forum, and it's been a while since anyone discussed FNM, so I figured I would start a discussion to see if there are any like minded individuals.

Crazy awesome band.
I was happy to see FNM amongst the first few bands mentioned on Jeff's shirt at the RnR HOF ceremony.
Edit: Now if we could only get Bungle to reunite........

I’m also pretty deep into Small Victories by Adrian Harte. It’s pretty damn good, I recommend that as well for any fans.
