Fuck yeah, what an album.
His first day on the job as a real rock star,and Mike Patton suffered a life changing injury while shooting this video. At least it inspired some great music in the following decades!
Mike Patton has the most versatile voice and music styles from all artists I know. In this song he sounds a little like Axl Rose. In others he growls the wildest metal and after that he sings operetta.
These diverse genre styles mixed with an incredible tone range owned by a hard working dude, singing with many bands and at the same time not being afraid of testing borders and being experimental, is something very unique.
I actually think Mike Patton’s work is underrated.
Fun fact, he did the voices of the infected in the Left 4 Dead games. All those growls, snarls, and screams!
