Suspended Animation.
WTF did I get myself into? I don't know why but I can not stop listening to this. I want to chop bits and pieces of it up and make it into a 3 minute song...
anyone else listen to this shit?

i absolutely love fantomas, and pretty much anything mike patton has had his hands on for that matter.
purists have said that the self-titled and director's cut albums are superior, but i stand by my opinion that suspended animation is indeed THE fantomas album.
i don't know if you looked into it or not, but if you haven't, listen to mr. bungle IMMEDIATELY - it will BLOW YOUR FUCKING MIND.

yes. imo delirium cordia as well...
.. .
when you've swallowed everything fantomas and bungle, check out "Secret Chiefs 3" (members of bungle and others sans Mike Patton). Also "Trevor Dunn's Trio Convulsant" (Bungle/Fantomas bassist).

rly? imo he's done a lot of good stuff, but his idiotic narcist personality seems to push himself always to the front, so the greatness of the other musicians involved takes a back seat... and in recent years he tends to repeat himself quite a lot, in a ridiculous way. Too much Patton in Patton's music. "imo"

directors cut > suspended animation > self titled IMO.
secret chiefs 3 is better than fantomas though, i think. more diverse, more varied.

This hierarchy I can except. Not a big fan of the st to be honest.
Back in the days, fans of pattonesque stuff here used to listen to Estradasphere. I was the first one to call that crap. Yes, that was THE critical achievement of my youth.
Trevor Dunn's Trio - very good

i prefer mike patton live because he develops his voice over time ..the songs just gets better and better...as he puts far more energy and feeling into a live performance. the way he sings the words simply love it.

i think he was at his peak of 'traditional' singing on king for a day. underrated album.

seeing mike patton live was incredible.
peeping tom, even tho the album so definitely hot-or-miss, was fucking EXCELLENT live. really great stuff, so much energy in the crowd.
also, i'd forgotten about delerium cordia - another great album, but honestly i almost have a hard time rating it as fantomas, its so far different from their other material.

delirium cordia is shite. suspended is very mediocre after the first two, and i don't consider myself a "purist" at all. it's just... badly done, i think. tomahawk's latest is great though, but i think mike patton is stretching himself too thin over so many projects. glad he's not putting out that much these days, i hope he returns with something more well composed.

i saw fnm live a few years ago. the gig was too funny. my friend and i were only about 15 at the time and when we were watching the band, some stoner hippy acid guy rested his head on my mates back, pulled his (own) dick out and pissed all over his leg. look on my mates face = priceless. he was terrified.

I've heard much of Patton. the only thing I'm not big on is when he just makes noises for the sake of making noises and not to accent the song.

you misinterpretted it. but I did lay a blanket statement.
I like it when it fits. sometimes he just does it because he can make some noise. often it works well in the song but sometimes it feels like he had nothing better to do at the moment but try to take center stage for no great reason.
