omg omg!!!
omg!!
everyone that gets a chance should go see them!!!
the best gig i was at in a VERY long time...this is what music is all about, these guys put everything they've got into this and it sounds amazing. at times all you can do is to stare with opened eyes and have that silly WTF/LOL expression on your face.
i always loved that heavy dirty guitar sound by buzz osbourne and he played a long solo part - just that awesome hard sound for like 10 minutes, and some trashing break inbetween couple of times.
trevor dunn and dave lombardo are totally excellent as well, and then there's the crazy patton :)
there were quite some noise ambient breaks...it was very noisy at moments, similar to merzbow - the only difference that it was played live, with patton screaming...
i'll say it again, if you get the chance don't miss them! :)

I have never heard fantomas. the word even sounds like an expression for 'greatness' in slovenian :)

that describes him really good...maybe this will be a bit disappointing for all those faith no more fans outhere, coz, well, they make it look funny - but the real quality is in that...amazing what they can do!

I have never heard of the band before, so I didn't know the word before.
and to me, in this context, the word even sounded like it could mean something like "great" in e.g. slovenian :)
really glad you're happy now btw! You need that!

You should definately check out the "irony is a dead scene" EP he made with the Dillinger Escape Plan. Also "California" by Mr Bungle. Actually he's in about half a million bands.

basically it's rock music, with metal, breakcore, ambient, noise, speedcore, and everything else you can think of...
you like rough stuff if i remeber right, im sure you'd love these guys...they're all superb musicians, playing in many excellent groups...i guess fantomas is something where they can show all their creativity, because they don't stick to any paterns...

In "directors cut" their second album they fuck up movie themes like "the prophecy" or "the godfather" etc.

hehe, pearl jam are like boy pop band to these guys :)
buzz osbourne is the guy that has introduced kurt cobain to rock music...they wee big fans...melvins are among my favourite rock bands and i saw them live when they were opening for nirvana...
trevor dunn, worked with tom waits, john zorn and many other fantastic musicians...
dave lombardo - is playing drums for slayer, and hmm, clearly one of best drumers at the moment...
mike patton...no need to introduce him i guess :)

hmm, i liked faith no more...saw them playing live too :) but the things he's doing with fantomas and mr. bungle are something else...he's way more than just a great vocal - he's one of those poeple who's only point of being alive is to be able to play music...especially live...
i mean, they're playing infront of small crowds...there were like 500 poeple there tonigh, but it was fully packed...what im trying to say is that they could have played in some big place infront of 5000 people but obviously they don't care about that...excellent guys.

fantomas is incredible live. i've seen them play 9 or 10 times and it's always incredible. definitely check them out if they come to your town.
although, i wouldn't really call them a rock band exactly...
