Lately I've been obsessing over Mike Patton. His range in music is daunting. His work ethic is really inspiring. Man this guy is brilliant. Can wait to hear his new album.
This made me happy. Mike Patton is arguably one of the most interesting cats working today. He's bright, fearless, and simply could not care less what anyone thinks about his career. It's refreshing to see passion like that, whatever form it takes.
Absolutely. And I have always admired his "I dont create music for my fans, i create music for myself" attitude. Always aiming to be original and not afraid to push the boundries of the modern sound.
We need more artists like Mike Patton in the music industry now. He is the only artist who strives for complete originality and does not copy and paste the same shit from the previous album over and over again for 10 years straight.
Most people just don't get Mike Patton and he doesn't care if you do . That's part of his appeal . His voice is velvet with broken glass glued to it . No one can touch him as far as I'm concerned .
I like a lot of RHCP songs, but you need to admit that during the 90's they were all a bunch of egocentric junkies. Their lifestyle killed Hillel and almost killed Frusciante, also they affected other people close to them, like River Phoenix. Mr Bungle was a fucked up band (in the good sense), but they weren't into heavy usage of drugs and didn't like the Red Hot Chilli Peppers-way of doing thing. Also, the europe shows helped to make the feud between the bands stronger.
My daughter was playing Left 4 Dead recently and I put on a FNM record. I said to her "you hear the zombies in the game and the guy singing this song? Same guy." Don't think she was as impressed as I thought she should be.
A fascinating story...had no idea about this..I saw FNM once in 1998. Yeah he’s aged incredibly well. That parody effort was unbelievable. What do I see in Patton? A genius of creative dualities, on a level of his own. Modern day artist unrivalled
Thanks for this, guys. Mike Patton is by far my favourite vocalist. The man is so progressive, so unique. Looking forward to hearing what he comes up with next.
Mo Lester Well i bet 90% of "fanbois" here don't even know complete lyrics of atleast 10 patton songs. Musician fanbois here just want to brag that Mr. Patton is their inspiration in music to make them look as sophisticated as Mr. Patton. Or they want to be like the 90s bands "inspired by" patton. Ugh.. so much bandwagoning here..
I never get tired of this guy. I really got into FNM only about 8 years ago and bought every one of their albums they had out at the time all at once. I was getting tattooed and the artist had the Angel Dust album playing the whole time. After hearing the whole thing in its entirety i just had to hear more!
I like "Blood, Sugar, Sex, Magic" and oddly "One Hot Minute" better than all other Chilli Peppers' albums. Maybe it's because I love Dave Navarro as a guitarist, but I love Mike Patton WAY WAY WAY more. I love Mr. Bungle, Faith No More, Tomahawk, Peeping Tom, his soundtracks, and I'm in awe of Fantomas. I mean how in the fucking hell can you go wrong with Mike Patton, Buzz Osborne, Trevor Dunn, and Dave fucking Lombardo? MIKE PATTON = ROCK GOD!!!! P.S. I'm missing some of his projects. Hard to keep up with them. I love all of them.
Okay his projects' versatility and range is huge, but quantity doesn't meant anything at all. I still love Angel Dust and KaDFfaL, but the rest of the albums can rot in time for all I care.
There is a similarity, I have to admit, but what interest would Patton have in ripping off anyone? He was already established, very different from Kiedis. And never short of ideas. Kiedis was awefully sure of his theory.
It's contextual...Faith No More got big in an effort by the label to cash in on the sound the Chilis had paved the way for...Mike had just joined the group, and if your first exposure was the "Epic" video, it's easy to get the impression that they were a commercial rip-off of the Peppers, especially looking at Mike Patton...even they're actually pretty different bands musically
It's funny, from what I've seen in interviews, videos, magazines on the subject of the feud. It always seemed Patton just wanted to bury the hatchet and be cool with the RHCP. Even after the first lash out from Kiedis, Patton never retaliated. He even said to interviewers that he still thinks he is cool with RHCP and it was overblown. It was only years later after being kicked from concerts, did he finally get mad enough to do something about it. His last time ever discussing the feud. He said its old shit, and if he ever sees Kiedis he would hope they could just shake hands and have a laugh about whole thing.
Yup! They both were trying to be unique, but beside the theatrics, probably the rap bits, and even the fan base. They were still were very different in lyric context and overall instrumentals. Btw to be fair Patton is bit conceded himself. (Tried to come up with a better term) Regardless Patton comes out the better man in this situation.
one of my idols! and a bit of a "celebrity" (i guess) crush of mine too...he was gorgeous when he was young, and aged very attractively as well, and kept his talent all the while! i love all his projects, but i'm diehard for mr. bungle in particular 💗
Robin Groves The whole thing's actually on TH-cam now. In fact, it's one of the related videos to the right (don't know if the list populates according to user or not). But it's awesome that you still have the VHS of that!
I have a "Faith No More" VHS tape of so many things from the 90's. The concert in Rock in Rio, interviews, the one where MP says they killed a bunch of fish making the 'Epic' video, that Headbanger's Ball from Poughkeepsie, NY. I put everything on one tape using 2 VCRs. Took me forever!
***** Fans of both. Went into this video having absolutely zero knowledge that they were/are considered similar. The two just have never had a relationship in my mind. Now I'm trying to think back to find a connection of some sort, but it's hurting my brain.
been a fan of this guy for over 20 years this is something that needed making, thankyou guys, I do wish the FNM guys would do a full official documentary, one of my fave all time bands, again thankyou so much for this.
Patton is the most underrated artist by many many people who think he is an asshole only because the way he acts. The fact is, the industry is filled wit idiotic "artists" who are just posers. HE is a visionary. My whole respects to Mike. He is the greatest. Great Documentary, guys.
No, 6 octaves is not humanly possible. For a human to have 3 and change is ridiculously amazing, and I'd say patton has displayed about 3. And 10 fucking octaves? . no fucking human has that, at all
@@jrosner6123 6 octaves. Man, it's so satisfying to me to watch these "internet geniuses" get smoked when they think they're right and actual professionals are wrong...

@@RetroGuy_77 To be fair: all notewatching databases give Tim Storms 3 1/2 - 4 octaves. What Guinness counted in there are non-audible low glottal frequencies. That's not vocal range, that's inaudible frequencies coming out of your throat that are not vocals
Dude....do some deeper research. Mr Bungle was not a character from a Pee Wee Herman special....yes, Pee Wee used the Mr Bungle footage, but it was from a 60's PSA announcement on personal hygiene and good manners
Wolfmother sucked ass from day one, which is why you never hear them anymore. Patton was dead on. Fuck retro anything. Those tin shit ugly new VW beetles are all the evidence you need of that, and I bet every band member of woolly Wolfmuthafucka owns one. Dipshits.
The one and only time I got to see Mr. Bungle live was that Halloween show at Clutch Cargo. So awesome to see footage of that show! Thank you! Although, I think Bungle was doing the chilli pepper spoof for a few shows by then. Doesn't matter. They didn't do it for the whole show, and even when the band was taking intermission, Patton was still doing his solo keyboard & voice thing... I ran up as they were clearing people out after the show, to shake Trey Spruance's hand(Bungle's guitarist/songwriter, also of secret chiefs 3), all painted up for Halloween. That's one of the best concert memories I have.
During the Clutch Cargo show when they mocked the Peppers, Mike would repeatedly toss handfuls of empty hypodermic needles into the audience and shout "Happy Heroin" instead of "Halloween". Legendary burn. My jaw dropped and still refuses to come back up.
I like Mike patton, he is someone you could just have a beer with randomly, say hello say goodbye, please to meet ya have a chat, then wish him on his way, and then gone, like life should be.
@@steveschu Yeah, I've heard recordings of him singing out of key, but I've also heard him sing... well, passably. But again, that's it. At his best, he's merely passable.
if music were religion, it'd be like comparing a local small town evangelist to God himself. On the 7th day Patton rested and ate a crunchy sounding sandwich throughout an interview as he rested. On his best Sunday, Kiedis just sent around a collection plate and prayed for the best.
The last minute or so about Patton being versatile in so many genres, I would like to say if it wasn't for Mike Patton doing so many different things my musical taste would be bland. He's not the only reason but he helped.
Have you read any musical history? Kurt Cobain was heavily influenced by the Pixies and some of the early punk scene like Iggy but Queen was definitely not a main influence.
What an absolute giant. I am so proud that my ear heard well and made me a fan of his music (Mr. Bungle, California) even without knowing who he is, him turning out to be such a star. His feud with Kiedis (or rather Kiedis' feud with him)? All the more power to him hahaha
I gotta say when Faith No More's "Epic" came out I to thought that they were a total RHCP ripoff. However, over the years, my respect for Patton has grown with his other projects.
The chilis have a totally different sound then fishbone. They're both funky very distinct from eachother. And they were good friends coming up in the L.A. scene.
funny he's from my home town of eureka CA.i play with two of his high school class mates in a metal band. my dad even jammed with him a few other dudes from Mr bungle back in the day.crazy that he's become an icon
I ADORE MIKE PATTON: The first song I sang to my niece, who made me an "auntie" first, was "Mystify". I FUCKING LOVE MR. BUNGLE! I reference "Sweet Charity" in a short literary piece..first time I referenced music in my writing. Yeah..kind of a big fan.
One of my favourite jokes: Showing ppl Aphex Twin - Come To Daddy. "See, this is intricate shit you can only achieve by programming beats for hours and hours." Then playing DEP+Patton - Come To Daddy. Oh the joy! 🐻👌🏼🦄📢
Good on you guys for putting this together. I maybe wouldn't had led with the RHCP spoof, but I get it. Also, I'm sure I'm not the first to tell you Mr. Bungle was a reference to a series of school films way before Pee-Wee Herman was around.
I remember some of these Bungle hoedowns on 2nd Street in Eureka at Theo's, the clubs downtown and the aftershow coffee at Appleby's. Mike and Trey worked almost every waking moment, studied every composer, practiced relentlessly.
Mike Patton is a true artist, his mouth and ideas always come from hip shots, but that doesn’t mean he is wrong, he just knows music and anyone who dares tread into that realm, is his toys. When I say someone knows music and is an artist, I am saying they can compose a song from scratch, not copy and paste a song, which is what most if not 98% of people who call themselves musicians do. Anyone can make a song. Verse, chorus, verse, chorus, bridge, chorus repeat verse one with minute changes, chorus. Standard arrangment - doesn’t take a stretch of ability. Patton will swim against the current and not just flip that around but gut it, and shove different parts together that should t work, and then weave something over that, you know experiment. He won’t be writing any simple to digest pop songs anytime soon, lol
I've always thought that RHCP was the most boring, same sounding band out there. By same sounding I mean that almost every song and every album of theirs sounds the same. And Keidis is just plain not interesting to watch on stage or in videos. Meanwhile Patton has a whole slew of unique projects and he just oozes talent and charisma.
Mostly agree, save that AK is a pretty charismatic guy. Patton is next level but he’s also a total dick, but in the defiant way which most people adore. I find him like-able and punch-able. Not sure more of which...
Patton is an incredibly versatile, creative, ambitious singer who puts artistry before commerce. Most the bands he mocks were commercially successful but essentially were hacks (or totally grotesque and deserving of it, like GNR)
MIKE PATTON ALL DAY…. Mike is the muthafuckin’ MAN. I like RHCP, but I judge the greatness of a band based on how long I can listen to their music on a roadtrip and everything MP has done with Faith No More, Mr. Bungle and Dillinger Escape Plan are all songs I CANNOT skip a track to. ANGEL DUST is thee album for me. EVERY SONG IS AMAZING
Patton is a much better frontman and singer than Kiedis. Kiedis just wishes he would have been ripped off by Mr. Bungle. I like RHCP, but they are rather shit nowadays and all they ever do is whine and complain.
I went on a trip down the coast and ended up in his hometown, Eureka! Was randomly there for my 31st birthday with my spouse. (We had no exact destination). I didn't know it was his hometown until after the trip. I was like FUCK YEAH!
I am a fan of both FNM and RHCP, but NOBODY can deny Patton is better than Kiedis. That is just not a debate.
patton is a Cunt.
A cunt that is a much better singer than Kiedis.
RacerEckss why? because he doesn't like wolfmother?
RacerEckss Cunts are useful.
Especially to pricks. ;D

Plus he just does the work. He doesn't waste time, he just has ideas and does them.
Absolutely. And I have always admired his "I dont create music for my fans, i create music for myself" attitude. Always aiming to be original and not afraid to push the boundries of the modern sound.

Lee Mavers

He also worked on Bionic Commando (PS3, Xbox360). Underrated game i.m.o.
"Wolf Mother. You suck!"
Every time I see these clips, I wish I had a good sandwich. It seems like I haven’t had a really good sandwich in a long time.
Cant get enough of Mike Patton
The worst part about The Red Hot Chili Peppers is Anthony Keidis ... but he does try SO hard.
runfayalife Took he words out of my mouth.
He’s a pedo just every rotten helly weird minions

Bill Hicks because he's better than keidis lmao
Patton > Kiedis
Heifetz > Chad Smith
Trevor Dunn > Flea
Trey Spruance > Frusciante
Mr Bungle and FNM > RHCP.
Patton could not sound as bad as most vocalists if he tried.
Yup but one hit wonder FNM sounds like a ripp offf hahahahahhhhhahhhaha

Okay his projects' versatility and range is huge, but quantity doesn't meant anything at all.
I still love Angel Dust and KaDFfaL, but the rest of the albums can rot in time for all I care.
In hindsight, it's kind of laughable that that Anthony Kiedis would compare Patton to himself.
It's more absurd as time goes by.
still with the Keidis thing?
its still sad that FNM fans feels the need to keep bringing up the comparison that happened in 1989. are we over it yet?
Ask Anthony, he is the one who had a problem.
+Coldacre well, I just think that Patton and Co. is fifty billion times cooler than the Red Cunt Chiili Peppers. I think that's all it is.
llongone2 that’s right Patton rules
i absolutely love the chili peppers so much but patton is way better than keidis. there's literally not a comparison.
Oh my god, that interview lady with the "grunge" question… seriously? Who in the f3ck even wrote that question for her?

Mike Patton: The Tony Clifton of Music.

Or Stevie Wonder. Whichever I guess.

Mike Patton is Awesome!! Good memories
Say what you want about Mr Mike Patton. But he's living his life his way. And he don't give a fuck!
Patton, the way to be a Legend
Anthony is a delicate little boy who can't take that he isn't special. Mike, on the other hand, is a gift from a being none here can comprehend.
Patton is actually right about Nirvana, Cobain was very influenced by Queen's prog and heavier "News of the World " era music.
yeah right
Give me an example...
Sheer Heart Attack was prob the only song on the record that Kurt even listened to.. Hardly prog...
Have you read any musical history? Kurt Cobain was heavily influenced by the Pixies and some of the early punk scene like Iggy but Queen was definitely not a main influence.
Cobain even mentions Freddie Mercury in his suicide note, right?

I gotta say when Faith No More's "Epic" came out I to thought that they were a total RHCP ripoff. However, over the years, my respect for Patton has grown with his other projects.
HarryCopperPot didn't Epic come first?
The peppers had been around for years b4 Mike joined FNM. The whole epic thing looks more like a pisstake to me than a rip off.
that song is unlike anything faith no more really did
Mike is a force of nature he is by far the most talented man in the business
Between RHCP and Mike Patton, if anyone got ripped off it was Fishbone.
The chilis have a totally different sound then fishbone. They're both funky very distinct from eachother. And they were good friends coming up in the L.A. scene.
"crazy music"? lol
no idea what Steve-O or jews have to do with anything
the only jewish person in the chilis died before they were signed to Warner
I agree with you I saw fishbone several times at City Gardens in the early 80s and I bought their first two records happily.
What Keidis never understood was that Patton was taking the piss out of him.
Mike Patton's authentic - And that makes for good tunes!
funny he's from my home town of eureka CA.i play with two of his high school class mates in a metal band. my dad even jammed with him a few other dudes from Mr bungle back in the day.crazy that he's become an icon

Mike Patton is the best!!!
Genius!!He has that something "extra" in the same way Maynard has,unique talent,should NOT be argued over!!!

🐻👌🏼🦄📢
Good on you guys for putting this together. I maybe wouldn't had led with the RHCP spoof, but I get it.
Also, I'm sure I'm not the first to tell you Mr. Bungle was a reference to a series of school films way before Pee-Wee Herman was around.

Patton is hilarious, and very talented
There is no compassion. Faith No More & Mike are always winning in my book.
I always thought he reminded of someone and that is Robert Downy Jr.
Wow, learned a lot today from your video, Patton is an amazing guy
God I love this man
I remember some of these Bungle hoedowns on 2nd Street in Eureka at Theo's, the clubs downtown and the aftershow coffee at Appleby's. Mike and Trey worked almost every waking moment, studied every composer, practiced relentlessly.
I love how they mocked the Chili Peppers at Clutch Cargos in my hometown! Wish I was there.....😁👍
Mike Patton is a true artist, his mouth and ideas always come from hip shots, but that doesn’t mean he is wrong, he just knows music and anyone who dares tread into that realm, is his toys. When I say someone knows music and is an artist, I am saying they can compose a song from scratch, not copy and paste a song, which is what most if not 98% of people who call themselves musicians do.
Anyone can make a song. Verse, chorus, verse, chorus, bridge, chorus repeat verse one with minute changes, chorus. Standard arrangment - doesn’t take a stretch of ability.
Patton will swim against the current and not just flip that around but gut it, and shove different parts together that should t work, and then weave something over that, you know experiment. He won’t be writing any simple to digest pop songs anytime soon, lol
I've always thought that RHCP was the most boring, same sounding band out there. By same sounding I mean that almost every song and every album of theirs sounds the same. And Keidis is just plain not interesting to watch on stage or in videos. Meanwhile Patton has a whole slew of unique projects and he just oozes talent and charisma.
Mostly agree, save that AK is a pretty charismatic guy. Patton is next level but he’s also a total dick, but in the defiant way which most people adore. I find him like-able and punch-able. Not sure more of which...
Kaylee F agreed
The absolute, unquestioned, ALL TIME, man.
Not even a mention of Fantômas?
Atiq Zabinski thats what i was just thinking. Director's Cut is my favorite Patton album.
Wow, didn't know Jim was the one who was intrigued of Patton. Ironic how things played out a few years later.
Patton is an incredibly versatile, creative, ambitious singer who puts artistry before commerce. Most the bands he mocks were commercially successful but essentially were hacks (or totally grotesque and deserving of it, like GNR)
I sat around and thought about the things we used to do. It really meant a lot to me. YOU mean a lot to me.
Do I really mean that much to you?
the man,the best,the only,,,,mike patton👏👏👏👏
"Doing the grungy kind of thing, way before Nirvana came on the scene"
LOL.
Mr bungle's ou818 was released before fnm's the real thing album , mike was already doing some white boy rap in some of the songs on ou818
MIKE PATTON ALL DAY…. Mike is the muthafuckin’ MAN. I like RHCP, but I judge the greatness of a band based on how long I can listen to their music on a roadtrip and everything MP has done with Faith No More, Mr. Bungle and Dillinger Escape Plan are all songs I CANNOT skip a track to. ANGEL DUST is thee album for me. EVERY SONG IS AMAZING
he looks like tony stark hahahaa
Hes a bit like the Tony Stark of music
Mike is a top 5 singer in Rock...period
Patton is a much better frontman and singer than Kiedis. Kiedis just wishes he would have been ripped off by Mr. Bungle.
I like RHCP, but they are rather shit nowadays and all they ever do is whine and complain.
True
I went on a trip down the coast and ended up in his hometown, Eureka!
Was randomly there for my 31st birthday with my spouse. (We had no exact
destination). I didn't know it was his hometown until after the trip. I
was like FUCK YEAH!
RHCP fucking sucks. Everytime they come on the radio i wanna kick it in. Im on pattons side on this. Peppers have blown since the early 90s.
REally a genius in his own right...
