MANDATORY 25 October 1123

It's 2008, FNM is dead, long live FNM! And I turn back to the past by looking at their discography, which ultimately is not bloated, and I say to myself, in the end each of their album was really marked by its own personality, there is no 2 are alike, evolution has been strong, and all are essential. FNM was an uncompromising group who did what he pleased, led by Mike Patton crazy limited to higher IQ, which is allowed to swing a piece of Sinatra in Hawaiian shirt in the middle of a full-packed Zenith .. . and even Zenith screaming genius. FNM has always been an unlikely mixture of influences, which mixture has continued to blossom in progressively albums, but is indeed born of "The Real Thing" ... metal, yes in large doses, but also, orbiting, jazz, rap, funk, punk, variety ... sometimes with the unexpected result of always being a success, where many make up a sound indigestible mixture . At FNM it goes like an old gold rum after a feast: it is warm, amber, strong, tasty, and it feels good.

So those who do not know "The Real Thing" do not really know Faith No More, because as the name suggests, it is the only true ... THE Faith No More is seen exploding on this disc, which contains ONLY the great classics of the group, became cult and indispensable in his concerts when he turned again. Of course, the sound is a little dated, but compared with the avant-garde of the compounds is really not serious.

"From Out Of Nowhere" attack the ball and direct strength puts record straight with a good metal funk morning and always these sometimes rapped vocals. "Epic", title track, still echoes in countless concert halls throughout the world from its imparrable chorus ... What-is-it? It's IT? It's Epic ... The keyboards essential facet of the FNM alchemy, turn out on the sublime "Falling To Pieces" and its air melody, its terrible coffee breaks. The surprising "Surprise! You'Re Dead!" you fart in Figure without warning. "Zombie Eaters" shows yet another face of the group. "The Real Thing" and crescendo finesse is also a must. The sublime "Underwater Love" mid-tempo and bass slap. "The Morning After" reveals yet another great melody line. The great "Woodpecker From Mars" shows the brilliant and creative madness of a crazy Patton, "War Pigs" by Black Sabbath shows beauty and "Edge Of The World" with its false air poppy / crooner quickly becomes a title that is do not forget.

11 coolest ums as each other, as FNM shines in a mixture always excellently proportioned metal, rap beginnings of jazz, so that's concoté never daunting or too convoluted, even if these lay 11 securities of be a challenge as the richness of this album is abundant. no need to seek new talent in 2008 if you do not know this record ... so start by listening to the founders and masters, you will be blown!
