Fun fact...saw them open for Tool in 2002 and they antagonized the crowd the entire time, got booed the whole set, and finished with f**k you Pensacola! Goodnight
That's crazy! I saw them open for Tool in 2002 as well, but it was in Tucson. Matter of fact, I just sent this video to my high school sweetheart, who was with me at that show. I've had a 20+ year crush on Mike Patton since then!
I must have saw them on the same tour. Tomahawk opened for Tool in Tucson Arizona. Last song they played, Mike asked the crowd Hey, you guys like pigs head?! Then he proceeded to through a pigs head into the crowd. Craziest thing I’ve seen at a live show. lol
@@CriticalSurvival0 That drum intro part is a sample played on Mike’s keyboard which is how they start off this song. It normally sounds like that. There’s some other pretty cool Tomahawk concerts on youtube where it happens, though the audio quality isnt as good as this video so the shift doesnt sound so unnaturally good
i feel blessed to have found it however i give cred to the bad a$$ fan who suggested to come watch in on youtube... i sent this to my brother also i was blown away by its awesomeness
I love Mike Patton...!! True fact. From the moment we met at age 15 him um 23..but he thought I was older and we just went driving around in the minivan..the whole band. It was love at first sight hehe..then again in 93..and 97..fucking gorgeous man.😍...still has my heart forever..all the awkwardness and crazy Aquarius nature..oh and those looks into my eyes. Oh kill me already!! 😂💕
as much as i am sick of the word 'underrated' being used about every single effing band and vocalist and guitarist in the world, in this case, maybe he is because there is no rating system that goes high enough. But ffs, stop using the word, please.
Not necessarily underrated.. I'd say it's more like you either KNOW he's off the charts talented or you don't know who he is/ don't recognize talent. (Not you obviously, I mean people in general)
Do an understanding Mike Patton! I really liked the Mr. Bungle video which is how I ended up on this video and I’m obsessed with this performance and his vocals
@@MrSnuffian listen to Peeping Tom patton's vocal range on that album is amazing...also Fantomas millennium monsterwork if u wanna hear some melvins with mike patton...
NicCole Weinberg not the best in the world but one of top 3 in music industry and the best because using growling,guttural and clean voice it can do only some people and their vocal range hasn't 6 octaves)
I'm drawn in by how Patton's vocal intensity just steadily grows throughout the entire song. It feels like he's at a 10, and then he just keeps cranking it up even further. And it just keeps going up right until the end.
If you're referring to the gig at Manchester Academy in 2002 with Dalek supporting (in the same building as a Vex Redd gig), the I was there too. Fantastic gig. Met him afterwards (again). I took some pretty good photos at that gig (proper photos on a film camera - not a digital one) and had one made in to a large poster for my wall it was that good. Saw Bungle at Leeds Irish Centre on Volante tour, and the folling night in London. The Leeds gig was so weird. Fucking club turn working men's club in the middle of a housing estate on the Leeds ring road.
I prescribe immediate attention to Ipecac Records, Mike Patton's record label. Get your Tomahawk, Mondo Cane, Peeping Tom and all the music Magic Mike supports.
I'm 11 and I love this song and all his other bands! My Dad got me into Tomahawk when I was in preschool and now I'm hooked to Tomahawk and all of his other bands. Mike is the man!
What a great, underrated bass player Kevin Rutmanis is. He was Melvin's best bass player. Hope he's clean now. The bass line really carries the song. Groovy, tasty, dark, psycho.
Melvins have had some of the most underrated and talented players in game. Even Lori Black, who was the least talented, was killer on her albums with them. Buzz and Dale are the moneyball recruiters for the bass slot. Never a bad choice.
This is the definition of a supergroup, Patton, stanier, rutmanis and Denison. It’s like everything good about 90s rock rolled into one beautiful package. Tomahawks debut album will always be number one for me
I came home and my girlfriend said she saw this on my playlist and watched it and she’s obsessed with this song now and why didn’t I show it to her before. I decided right then I need to marry this girl.
Mike is a funny guy. Once saw a gig in Vienna and at the beginning of the show he said: "WTF are you doing here guys ! Metallica is playing right now in another venue ! ". Fatastic gig though.
this is a true hidden gem. It keeps getting removed. that aside Patton is a fucking legend and Angel Dust is a masterpiece. anyone who found this by accident or stumbled across it needs to go listen to FNM now! big thanks to the uploader!
what i noticed is even with the mask on he has amazing control over his voice if u listen closely...he is actually screaming at the top of his lungs...
For years i thought this was official music video meant to make it look like it was live... Actually more like a decade. One of the best most dynamic performances ever right here.
I love everything about this performance. The intensity of everyone, mutiple mics, MIKE PATTON and his creepy beauty, the fact that they're all dressed like cops in ties, his action pose at the end. And the song That mic switch dude
Some information about this video... It's from a live performance that was filmed in early 2002 for channel [V] at their then headquarters located at Fox Studios Australia in Sydney. The band performed a number of songs from their "Tomahawk" album. The band was in Australia touring and performing at "the big day out" festival.
The absolute definitive version of this song. Hell, the definitive example of how to perform live as a band, mixing showmanship, passion, musicality and pure creativity. Patton looks possessed. In the best possible way. That’s how music should feel.
Best ever. Mike is ruthlessly human. Human excellence in the form of expression. Dude Is hella under rated . Which proves how lame existence has gotten
Holy shit. I remember watching this live back in the day. For years it's slipped my mind I always thought it was Mr bungle. Could vaguely remember the song. Now I can finally rest. Hahahaha
I want every section of this song to be twice as long, which is probably why I listen to it so much. Can't believe it's under 3 minutes long. Perfection.
Patton is brillant at the FX and keyboard sounds in his projects. His background lines on the chorus makes it sound like a studio recording...It makes people think this is overdubbed...I've seen Patton live across 4 of his groups. He is one of the most versatile and interesting vocalist in several genres...The band are all stars from impressive bands. This is there best song. ..
thank you for uploading this! experiencing this has genuinely improved my life. ive been a fan for decades and only seeing this NOW. brother patton never ceases to revive the tendrils of my dead soul. this is fucking art. 💗⚡️
This is one of those songs that doesn't matter if it has a meaning or not. It's raw, it's viseral, and it was pulled of perfectly in this live recording. I always find myself coming back to this song now and then
I saw them open for tool (wow, over 20 years ago already) and I have to admit I did not understand the greatness I was witnessing. I forgot about them pretty much all together until this popped up on here. Very happy to be reunited. That was a great performance
This is my absolute favorite video on the internet. Gone back to it so many times over the years, showed my friends and fam. I always end up comin back to it. So freakin good
I sing this at work when I'm painting with my respirator lol

He’d never be that bland

Mike Patton is absolutely criminally underrated... A brutal vocal proficiency and diverse singing techniques, a true artist.

I don't think so. He's pretty accurately rated when it comes to industry respected opinions.
Not necessarily underrated.. I'd say it's more like you either KNOW he's off the charts talented or you don't know who he is/ don't recognize talent. (Not you obviously, I mean people in general)
Yes
Not as much underrated as underappreciated. More people should be exposed to his work
There needs to be a version of this that's four days long.
THAT would be the equivolent of a real-life music *_bender_*
I come back to old Mike Patton videos when I feel like shit and immediately feel better 🖤
This is WAAAY better than the studio version.
Do an understanding Mike Patton! I really liked the Mr. Bungle video which is how I ended up on this video and I’m obsessed with this performance and his vocals

This is the only version I've heard, or will hear, cuz nothing will hold up to this.
Anything Mike Patton touches turns to fucking gold, man.
mike is a god
Mike Patton's range is insane!!!!
Literally the best in the world. Hits all six octaves.

@Itamar Lopez Jeff Buckley was one of the best. Matt Bellamy is influenced by him.
You also have to factor in the enginuity of putting a mic in a gas mask for a pretty kickass effect.
Patton is the most unique vocalist I have ever seen. And quite possibly my favorite
same...he blows my mind honestly
Wow, the Village People sure changed paths.
I'm drawn in by how Patton's vocal intensity just steadily grows throughout the entire song. It feels like he's at a 10, and then he just keeps cranking it up even further. And it just keeps going up right until the end.
this one goes to 11
The drugs are just starting to kick at the intro. By the end of the song he's flying high again.

Smart kid.
Rock on little man! 🤘
😊
Don’t know how Tomahawk ever got past my radar 20 yrs ago.
This song is addictive
What a great, underrated bass player Kevin Rutmanis is. He was Melvin's best bass player. Hope he's clean now.
The bass line really carries the song. Groovy, tasty, dark, psycho.
I think Jeff Pinkus is better
YUS
Joe Preston for me
I hope he's doing ok, he is awesome, master of the slide bass.
Melvins have had some of the most underrated and talented players in game. Even Lori Black, who was the least talented, was killer on her albums with them. Buzz and Dale are the moneyball recruiters for the bass slot. Never a bad choice.

My favorite part of the song because of the mic transition!

I have a folder called "Best TH-cam of all time" and this is in it.
Mike Patton is a god amongst men. So thankful to have lived in his age.

She is Patton in disguise.
Mike Patton is a great example to describe the difference between a vocalist and a singer
Huge props to the sound engineer that mixed this live. Simply incredible.
Mike Patton has to be one of my most favorite frontmen alive. THIS is why.
Mike is a funny guy. Once saw a gig in Vienna and at the beginning of the show he said: "WTF are you doing here guys ! Metallica is playing right now in another venue ! ". Fatastic gig though.

This shit NEVER gets old..❤️❤️
it doesn't...ever since a fan suggested it i have watched it 30 times so far

Bungles only cool because it's so different everytime their only good ones raging wrath though lol
