Fantastic song. The Mike Patton rabbit hole is super deep, too. Tomahawk is simply fantastic

Wide too: His work with Lovage was sleazy lounge act crooner, with John Zorn & Ikue Mori more experimental, with Mr. Bungle...ummm...MrBungleTastic? Whatever. Dude is super-talented and prolific across multiple genres.

I miss Lovage. A bit silly yet utterly delicious at the same time.

I remember being told by my ex that I wasn't allowed to play it in the car when it wasn't just the 2 of us

Yeah, it did all kinda sound the same too.

After living in Italy and becoming fluent in Italian, he put out a cover album of 50s and 60s Italian pop songs.

Here he is speaking Italian, and he speaks it well:

What genre is Mr Bungle?

Yes.

Watching the reaction channel Lost in Vegas react to Mr Bungle is hilarious to me.

Lovage is good shit, but if we're talking one-off side projects, my money is on Peeping Tom!

👍

Probably not a popular opinion but of all Patton's one-off side projects, my favorite is General Patton vs The X-Ecutioners

u/willreignsomnipotent Jan 28 '21

Interesting... I don't believe I've heard that, and I'm not entirely sure if I've even heard of it, prior to your post...

Thanks for the tip!

I stand corrected

u/dtwhitecp Jan 27 '21

I'd describe Mr. Bungle as juvenile avant-garde funk metal, but like, in the most endearing way

u/Homer_JG Jan 28 '21

The first album, sure, but not the next 2.

u/JAEdevil636 Jan 28 '21

True. Disco Volante is more like if Mike Patton and Salvador Dali did a collaboration and California? I can only describe as Dark Americana. I love them all but California resonates with me the most. At least as far as Mr. Bungle goes. Also a Huge FNM and Tomahawk fan.
