Decidedly average.
Was only familiar with Epic, surprised that its an outlier on the album sound wise. Woodpeckers from Mars I really like as a soundscape, and Zombie Eaters might be the standout track. Is the keyboard player using a Hammond B3 on at least some of the tracks, sounds like it? Bonus points for that. Does get a little same-y, 3/5.
I'm surprised 'Angel Dust' isn't on the list as well because I prefer it to 'The Real Thing', but I also prefer Mr Bungle to Faith No More (but the old Bungle, not whatever they want to call this new Bungle). I was shocked to see that 'Epic' has significantly more streams that the rest of the album put together, not the best song on the record. It's alright, not as good as I remember. 3 / 5 stars.
Sorry guys, I didn't like the Faith No More album. I can understand why people would like it, but the singer's voice really wasn't for me.
This is where they hit the map. Bringing on Patton and setting MTV on fire with Epic. I think Angel Dust is a better album, but this was an intro for a lot of folks and brought their weird but infectious vision of progressive funk metal to the masses.
