Thanks if you're checking this out for the first time, or for the first time in almost 3 years!

Hey guys!
If you’re coming back around to this video or watching it for the first time, you’ll notice a dip in audio quality.
Unfortunately, I was forced to remove the song “Midlife Crisis” from the video after uploading it to keep it monetized, but TH-cam’s audio isolation isn’t the best, so my narration sounds pretty bad.
My apologies for this, and going forward, I’m learning to find more fruitful ways of playing music that won’t get hit with copyright flags.
Thanks for watching!
Faith no more is way way way better the red hot chilli pep
I loved Pattons "As The Worm Turns". One of my faves! Kinda makes me wish they'd do an album of re-workings with Patton, but I could definitely see the band nixing that, because it could possibly overshadow their work with Mosely. Especially now that he's gone. It was probably why the track wasn't included and/or so hard to find for so long. I do still wish I had a full album Patton sung Mosely-Era material...I would still listen to Mosely-Era no matter if they put something like that out...
Patton does great live versions of the Crab Song and Mark Bowen.
Back in early 92... MTV had a feature about new music and FNM was on it. It was the stuff they recorded during the making of Angel Dust, I was so looking forward to the Seagull song. When I bought the new album (Angel Dust) I was bummed that song was not on it. I have been waiting 30 years for the complete Seasgull song lol.
Couldn’t they do it for a surprise on a tour?
Such an influential album for me
Btw this song sounds amazing,i dont know why they dont want to release it
It's one of their best songs
The finale of Angel Dust - with TWO epic album closers in Jizzlober and Midnight Cowboy - is so perfect that I feel sorry for people who wound up with the rereleased version with Easy tacked on at the end. It's a cool cover song, but it ruins the flow of the album.
I'd love to have a 2-disc collector's edition with all the b-sides and unreleased tracks on disc 2, along with Easy.
To me, Easy was like a nice palette cleanser or an after credits scene. Don't feel sorry for me, It's my favourite album of all time just the way I heard it.
When it comes to the version with Easy tacked onto it, it should have come like a minute or so after Midnight Cowboy. That way, it would have seemed more like an encore, rather than an actual album track.
My CD copy of Angel Dust does not contain Easy, and I am glad. I agree about the flow. I always considered Easy to be a stand alone single, didn't even know they included it on future copies of Angel Dust.
The album from the famous Angel Dust era ShowTime was recently released on Spotify, well equalized and with wonderful audio. I went hoping to have a Seagull song, but unfortunately it wasn't this time. I still have hope that this complete song will come out.
Heard it many years ago. Sounds like a transitional song from the Real thing to Angel Dust.
The song is not interesting to me because it's lost. It's interesting to me because I've heard the snippet we have available and it's goddamn amazing. And it's from my favorite era FNM. I'd loooove to hear it in full. I wish the band would change their minds and release it, no matter the quality or their feelings on it.
I won't begrudge the 2 guys that claim to have it because, frankly, I don't believe them.
100% agree. The vocal and guitar melodies are superb and ought to be heard. I wouldnt doubt at least one Faith No More fan is in possession of the full song, considering the fact that we do have a snippet that’s been posted, but also the fact that it is in such poor quality makes me think it may be a tape taken from the studio during the mixing process.
I think Mike Bordin has the only confirmed copy, or at least I am 85% sure I remember him playing some of it from a laptop in a video
@@neilpatrickhairless Bordin has it, and no doubt Bill has it.
I trust them that it sucks.
It sounds amazing
@@simonscott1121they just said it sucks because it had to much guitar parts and they hate that
I think it was just a test run. It gives me the feeling it was the first thing they recorded, almost strictly for volume and equalization purposes. Especially after seeing the Making of Angel Dust so many times.
Your commentary is fantastic.
Thanks for the upload!
Fan since the 90's. First time I've heard this.. amazing song. Hopefully gets a studio release someday.
Here's an idea, since they have become so inactive in the last few decades, come together and record it today and get it up to your standards and release it now as a Thank You to all of us fans that have been following a band that basically releases nothing, only tours in the smallest amounts and pretty much has no plans to do so in the near future. They pretty well did Sol Invictus via email and without being in a studio together, they could surely do a one off song pretty easy.
I'd love to hear it.
@Phantasm Man, but that tour came almost 20 years of waiting. I know because I waited it out. I remember all my buddies in my 20s going to see them, I said "nah, I'll catch 9the next time around". Lol
Next thing you know I'm in my 40's going with my wife to see them.
And Patton recently said he doubts they will ever release a full length album again. Plus he is starting to have some issues with touring.
It all spells another ridiculously long wait for the fans. I'll be 60 seeing them for the second time taking my daughter. Lol
He’s back!!
I watched the doc and always wondered where that part was in the album. Makes sense now.
Amazing video!!!!
Those samples sound similar to what was used on The World is Yours
Although the internet seems to disagree with me, "The world is yours" was released way before the best-of album on a b-side in the UK.
I *think* (it was a long time ago!) that it was released from one of the singles from King for a day. I know there were two different releases for digging the grave (they had different colours covers if I recall), so could we be from one of them.
Anyone else recall this or am I finally going senile?
Much as I love FNM it was annoying the way the extras got released. It's standard practice for labels to gouge people by putting a smattering of extras on a greatest-hits album; that way casual fans get stuck paying for "greatest hits" nobody ever heard of, and hardcore fans get stuck buying a bunch of stuff they already own, but I kind of hoped for better from FNM.
For that reason I think it's perfectly ethical (though not legal exactly) to leak the whole track; it's not like anyone would say this is embarrassingly bad or anything, it's a great song unlike Das Schutzenfest which I got suckered into paying for.
Thanks for posting!
Tell us you don’t know the situation at all without confessing it.
How amazing is it that a band can write what seems to be an absolute banger of a track and say “nah, sounds like shit don’t like it.” I’ve written music since I was 13 and will never come close.
Great post. Release the Virus Song. Shuffle and Seagull
damn, these people keeping it all for themselves huh, must be a real gem
My personal album ranking order:
1. angel dust
2. king for a day
3. sol invictus
4. the real thing
5. album of the year
6. we care a lot
7. introduce yourself
I know of this situation/song and why Shane only released the snippet that he did.
I think he was “testing the waters” by releasing just a snippet and he got a very heartfelt email from Billy Gould himself, asking him to respect the wishes of the band and not release any more. He didn’t threaten legal action, which he was very well within his rights to do. He just asked for Shane to honor the band’s wishes and keep it in the vault.
I think it’s a great song, deserving of a full release, but only when the band is ready and agrees to put it out into the universe.
good video, F shane.
Wow. I’ve never heard the song with lyrics. Sounds cool. I’d love to hear the whole thing for it sounds great!
It's weird how FNM disown the song & keep it locked away in the vault never to see the light of day, yet they had no issues releasing far lesser quality b-side material such as 'Das Schutzenfest' & 'Hippy Jam Song' etc. to the public. It's frustrating as a fan, but they always had a degree of disdain for their own audience.The leaked snippet sounds like it would've fit great into the overall 'Angel Dust' aesthetic.
Beauty is in the Ear of the Beholder. I love Das Schutzenfest & Hippy Jam Song. "Far lesser quality"?? .... Thats like your opinion man. When reading through the comments on this video alone, FNM fans don't respect FNM enough. Their fans don't repsect their boundaries.
What they want to release or what they don't want to release is up to them. I can see why they have a level of disdain for their fans. No Real Respect. Patton is having a mental health crisis & his fans are over here bitching about a song they didn't want to release instead of being concerned about their Hero? How about a video of fans concerned about Mike Patton, letting him know we all care if he is doing well in life right now? Does anyone really care about him as a human being? No all the fanatics look up to people like him as a God or something & people are quick to dis their Gods if they don't get their prayers & wishes answered. Put self in others shoes occasionally.
Great vid to comeback with. You know, maybe a discord server could be nice for you if you ever do unfortunately have to step away again. Also good for brief updates on future videos.
I’d definitely have to figure out how to go about creating that, etc. Would love to though
Was always fascinated by the Shuffle Song, thought it sounded alright when we finally heard the non-documentary version, but can also hear why the band never wanted it to be released from a perspective of quality control.
The video was really good and well presented though! I’ll subscribe! Hope to see more content like this soon! Something covering Patton’s dynamic and prolific early-2000’s would be lovely; hear a bit about those excellent Tomahawk and Fantômas albums specifically.
@@TheBomber15 Patton’s early 2000’s output is dizzying, and its arguable that there isn’t a lot of quality control from album to album but I must say the album Anonymous by Tomahawk has stuck with me as a truly special album, and it has a unique and interesting story that warrants a video for sure.
I like the end song.
Hot take: 'The World Is Yours' and 'As the Worm Turns' would have been the best 2 songs on Angel Dust had they been included. IMHO 'As the Worm Turns' is FNM's best song.
Eh, another contrarian
The world is yours is a good tune but best on record is just a boring opinion.
@@30yearsoldiam1 Alrighty then. I'll check with you first next time before I have an opinion, okey dokey? :D
Quality content
Big fan, never heard that song before. Sounds "faithnomorish". Sounds good. I wish i could hear the whole thing.
You left out their other cover they did which was released on their b-side of Angel Dust EP Dead Kennedy's Let's Lynch the Landlord.
I think this song might be the best piece of music in history but I will probably never find out if it is, because these jerks want to keep this song as their secret little thing.
Hahahahah, i would say far from it, if it wasn't for the fact that i listened to it's leaked 1 minute 30 second clip. It was otherworldly so sincere of a rock song.
Except that it had Mike Patton rapping towards the end.
So no it wouldn't be the best song ever conceivable but the very best song that's ever been unreleased for over 3 decades.
It's criminal that the "shuffle song" also known as "seagull song" is nowhere to br heard.
Albeit 3 lucky fans have been fortunate enough to have heard it but are legally peohibited from releasing their copy of the song.
All we have is the 1 minute 30 second clip. Which is merely the intro to the shuffle song.
Not even it's chorus, but feels so scratching of that musical itch that we all have if we evwr dis, like no piece of music scratches, leaves you wanting more and more. Yet Nowhere.
We Want It! HahahahaHA !
It's a great song.
I'm a huge Faith No More fan, hell I have their logo tattooed on my arm for crying out loud. That said I'd never heard of this lost track before this but I gotta say, having heard that small snip I understand why the band doesn't want it out there. It's VERY rough and very unfinished. Bands have TONS of unreleased material it's just how it goes. Let sleeping dogs lie.
True. My band released and album of unreleased material. 22 yrs in a band you collect a lot of songs. Some just don't come out right up on recording them. Our record was a bunch of songs cut for time. Going back was fun and listening was fun. Still a lot didn't make the cut, if you heard them you would know why.
The two people that have the track should just release it than since it doesn't look like the band will.
Saw faith no more at the strand theater in rhode island i was 19 awesome show.
I wonder if the Heil sample has anything to do with them not wanting to release it. I know they were in a trolly state of mind, but who knows…
Also the whole thing sounds fairly out of tune. The vocals over the rest of the song. It definitely sounds under par compared with the rest of the album, but it’s still golden era FNM. So despite all that, I also would love to hear it!
I got Angel Dust the day it was released, and I was like 12. So the album has that magical nostalgic quality for me…
I thought its a bunch of wrestling fans screaming "hey"
@@martinfischermann6194 it might be… is that just a random suggestion or do you recognize the actual sample?lol. Like, maybe it’s a bunch of drunk clowns yelling hey… it could be any of these I guess
Let's meet in the middle. FNM should give us the rough but complete song, as it is on whatever CD or tape. In other words, no more production or engineering goes into it.
Put that as the last song on the next album.
I guess it’s lost… no more.
I can see why they've disowned this track, to me it sounds more like The Perfect Crime (which they wrote for Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey). Or, The Cowboy Song (the bonus studio track from the Live At Brixton Academy album.) It sits in that space between The Real Thing and Angel Dust, before the band knuckled down and decided to commit to something much more assertive and dark. I feel like if they had stuck with this sound and general mood, they would have been the band that was conforming to the success of The Real Thing. I am so glad FNM had the courage and artistic integrity to stray away from that "commercial" sound and explore a much more artistic and experimental area with Angel Dust. Perhaps this is part of why they don't want to acknowledge this track, although it could also be more about legal stuff: Perhaps Slash records have the rights to the recording and so the band can't just put it out there. (officially, anyway).
Guys, can we talk about FNM without making it all about Patton? FNM is Gould/Bordin. Mostly Gould.
Ehh and Roddy
Billy is the backbone but Puffy and Roddy are founders
@@GODHATESADOPTION Right? Give that man his props!! He’s VERY integral in the song writing process. Dude needs to put some Respek on his name!- it’s Rottin’ Bottum lol jk!!
@@GODHATESADOPTIONBilly & Puffy are the Founders.
Roddy Replaced their first Keyboardist Wade Worthington in 84'
@@RestrainingHollywood the backbone
I really have no idea why they just don't release virus. The only reason I can think of is because it sounds close to the real thing in sound.
It really doesn’t.
@@justincoleman3805 the guitars make it sound like It's a bridge from the real thing to angel dust.
My guess would be that the apparently vocal shout sample sounds too similar to "heil", and the 2-chord harmony resembles a Queen song. But that's lame
Im new to faith no more
Anybody help me
To know what 10 songs
Should be on my gym
Playlist?
Would be much cooler to just listen to each album during your workout. Though personally I’m not a fan of the pre-Patton era FNM
@@adarkerstandard
Thanks for not ansering my question pal!
My answer is go listen to the first album on your workout..then the second on your next..then the third, etc.
Your new to a band and you need help deciding what songs of theirs you like?
Okay buddo
i'd love to answer that question for you: 1. epic 2. falling to pieces 3. midlife crisis 4. be aggressive 5. get out 6. the gentle art of making enemies 7. digging the grave 8. what a day 9. ashes to ashes 10. got that feeling
sounds like Grotus
I hear a bit of grotus but the guitar harmonies make it not sound like grotus.
🖤Patton
Always respect the Band! Or anyone's boundaries for that matter. If they don't want the song out, leave it alone, they don't want it out! I'm a huge Patton fan since the age of 11. It's going on over 30 yrs of loving every project he's ever created. I'm not so desperate to hear this song that I'd disrespect the bands wishes to get it. This is why Patton is "annoyed" in interviews... people don't respect boundaries.
I remember seeing easy on beavis and butthead
Those weren't ladies in that video
@@kevin2400 they are now
For those of you who are unfamiliar with the concept of lost car keys, these are keys which you would use to start a car that are inaccessible to you as you cannot find them. I hope this makes you believe that I'm intelligent and have thoughts.
Thanks for the view bud
was slipknot inspired by Mr bungle?
of course
How about the WHOLE Courtney Love saga. They had like a 40 minute set
You didnt cover their BEST LP! "King for a day, fool for a lifetime" that was the most diverse and PATTONesqe LP they released
I have that song on several CDs. How is it “lost”?!? 🤔
Heh..if in fact we’re talking about the same thing, I’d encourage you to post it then..
Post it.
Then post it!!!
You actually have it, Virus, the seagull song? Did you burn it on a CD when it was leaked? Please, if you have it, do share it
They are really stupid not to release Shuffle. It's one of their best songs. It's better than anything on Sol Invictus
I have recently randomly been reading and watching things about Faith No More and I cannot get over how Jim Martin seems incapable of saying anything intelligent
I hate the Aerosmith style drums. Still would like to hear it though. Even though I think it does probably suck.
Aerosmith drums? In what way? Production? I just can’t hear or think of “Aerosmith?!” while Puffy’s behind the kit.
Can’t think of the word SUCK either when it comes to FNM. To each their own though.
I see why they did not put it out. I won't continue writing this comment since it will piss people off.
Why?
Great. Now I’m pissed.
@@123612100 FNM fans won't like it
@@2free2snakes I like what I heard so far and I'm a big FNM fan.
Reading through the comments on this video, I see there are few fans who truly respect FNM. The fans on this page at least don't respect FNM enough to respect their boundaries.
What they want to release or what they don't want to release is up to them.
Patton is having a mental health crisis & his fans are over here bitching about a song they didn't want to release instead of being concerned about their Hero?!
How about a video compilation of FNM fans concerned about Mike Patton, letting him know we all care if he is doing well in life right now? Does anyone really care about him as a human being? Fanatics look up to musicians like they're a God or something & people are quick to dis their Gods if they don't get their prayers & wishes answered. Maybe why Patton seems annoyed half the time. His fans "love" him yet disregard his boundaries. Love is respecting boundaries. Put self in others shoes for once!
Haha i think the only fan with boundary issues maybe you. Simply commenting on music that is lost to time is some personal affront to your lord and savior Mike Patton. Maybe try not taking this stuff too seriously. Patton would likely dry heave at a video of fans kissing his ass
How could you say Angel Dust was career suicide? It's one of the best albums ever made!
Uhhh…did you hear what I said? They did a 180 style wise which for many is the nail in the coffin in the music industry. In essence, they survived on career suicide by releasing one of the most forward thinking rock records of the decade
I like Faith No More but I feel as time has gone on they have become a bit overrated. I mean Patton is a good vocalist but he gets kinda old after a while and the up and down tempo of the music get kinda repetitive but this is just my opinion
I feel like as more time has gone by I can appreciate just how special they were & are. Many have tried since & most have failed to capture the lightning in a bottle that these guys possess. They are INSTANTLY recognizable by their sound. That should be the #1 goal of any artist or band.
No Chuck Mosley. No Faith No More.
😂
