Faith No More is an influential rock band that formed in the aftermath of Faith. No Man's breakup. They experienced several lineup changes before settling on Chuck Mosley, Roddy Bottum, Billy Gould, Mike Bordin, and Jim Martin. Their debut album 'We Care A Lot' was released in 1985 and they achieved commercial success with their third studio album 'The Real Thing'. The band underwent further changes with the addition of vocalist Mike Patton and guitarist Trey Spruance. Despite conflicts and side projects, they continued to release music until their split in 1998. In 2009, Faith No More announced their reunion as a touring entity and went on to release new music.

After forming following the breakup of Faith. No Man., Faith No More went through various lineup changes before finding stability with Chuck Mosley (Vocals), Roddy Bottum (Keyboards), Billy Gould (Bass Guitar), Mike Bordin (Drums) and Jim Martin (Guitar). They released their debut album 'We Care A Lot' in 1985 under Mordam Records.

Their breakthrough came with the release of 'The Real Thing' in 1989, featuring hits like 'Epic'. This album marked the introduction of new vocalist Mike Patton after Chuck Mosley's departure from the band due to tensions within the group. With Patton on board, Faith No More achieved critical acclaim and commercial success.

an amazing album,this record's oddities are also what make it such a fascinating listen. "land of sunshine" is a rocker with a foot-tapping rhythm punctuated by insane laughter from vocalist mike patton, whose distinctive voice and frequently disturbing lyrics drive the album. to call it hard rock does angel dust a disservice; it's far more musically complex than such a label implies. there's the funk-influenced "midlife crisis," the ballad "rv" (a bitter monologue from the point of view of a middle-aged discontent sitting in his trailer), the hard-edged claustrophobia of "smaller and smaller," and the rock-married-to-electronic-organ "be aggressive," which includes positively inspired cheerleader chants on the chorus. impossible to classify but incredibly entertaining (there isn't a single boring moment on this album), angel dust is well worth picking up.
