This is the tip of the Mike Patton iceberg.
You’re going to be shocked when you hear more of what’s out there.
Yeah I feel like she’d actually dig the stuff he did on Mondo Cane more than FNM
@@jolemite2639 Tomahawk "God Hates a Coward"
Man of a thousand voices. Girlie harmonies and animal sounds as well. A thousand musical projects too. From absolutely brutal stuff to quasi-operatic Italian crooning.
Yes listen to Patton doing the chorus in FNM Epic theres a different voice or in Evidence
Skip straight to the end and do "Platypus".
Please, WAY more Mike Patton. He is absolutely astounding vocally.
Mike Patton Rabbit hole has started. One of the best vocalists to ever exist. Enjoy the ride.
My old band would do surprise your dead. Some King's X as well, Pleiades. Try sing the back up with the rhythm. 😥
Rabbit labyrinth
Nothin left to say here🤘✌️👋👋👋🔥🔥
Oh,,if ya feelin kinda sexy 1night check him out with Lovage,,it's a bizarre wee journey of shizzel, and the beautiful female vocalist to add to the mix,, I can't tell you too much,, don't wanna ruin it for you 😅✌️
Yep him and Chris Cornell were the best male rock vocalists of that generation imo. And there were some other amazing ones.
Mike is the mad scientist of vocalist and their King for a Day album is a must own.
he is, angel dust is a must listen, as is the real thing. Faith no more were never scared to just do whatever they wanted. And we haven't even mentioned Mr. Bungle
@antiochiaadtaurum3786 yeah, Angel Dust is my addiction. (pun intended)
I’m with you. KFADFFAL is my album pick.
@@babybiird8285 easily #1.
(though, i am still a sucker for TRT , mainly for the title track and WFM)
KFAD is also my favorite album.
Mike Patton is one of the best frontmen ever. His vocal range and performances are all over the place. I had a friend who saw them in London's Brixton Academy in the late 80s and he said that he was a bundle of energy all through the show, at one point singing an entire song doing pushups...... Patton is an enigma to say the least.
Jut to be pedantic, that was in 1990. I saw them on this tour, got to meet Mike and talk about music because he saw my Napalm Death jumper as was impressed someone in Australia had the top I had! We got talking for a bit and he actually got called onto stage for being a little late! haha.
I've seen Mike a bunch of times with FNM, Mr. Bungle, and Fantomas. Every show has been different and amazing, but Mike was definitely that "bundle of energy" you mentioned. Especially in the Bungle shows.
One of my favorite memories of Mr. Bungle is from the first time I saw them. I'd never heard a Mr. Bungle song before and had no idea what kind of music they played. I just knew the name from Mike's shirt in the "Epic" video and read somewhere that it was his band from high school. When they came to my town in SoCal, I went into the show having no idea what to expect, and it was just nuts from beginning to end, including the "Welcome Back, Kotter" theme song being sung in both English and Spanish, a cover of Billy Squier's "The Stroke" but at like half speed (or less) with super harsh vocals, etc.
But the part that always stuck with me the most is the final song of the night. They played it pretty much all the way through and then, at one point, hit a chord and the entire band just froze onstage. They let their instruments keep ringing out and, almost immediately, the guitar started feeding back on itself. Still, the band stayed frozen in place like statues. At first, the crowd was cheering and laughing and having a great time, feeling like they were in on a fun little joke. Several minutes of growing, horrible feedback later, the crowd started getting uncomfortable, uncertain, etc. A few minutes of continued feedback and frozen bandmembers after that, the crowd started turning on them, shouting insults, throwing things, etc. A few minutes after that, the crowd came back around and started laughing and cheering at the audacity. A couple minutes after that, the guitarist (who was wearing a rubber monster mask, a frilly tuxedo jacket, and boxer shorts with his pants around his ankles) fell over like a tipped statue, the drummer and bassist left the stage, and Mike Patton suddenly launched himself through the center of the drumkit. And that was the end of the show.
It was a fascinating experience and the first and only time I've ever seen a song where the audience was the instrument being played by the band. It was genius and changed how I viewed art and music forever afterward.
I saw them in Poland in '93. Unforgettable!
Their cover of Commodores "Easy Like Sunday Morning" is fantastic.
There’s a live version from this same episode on jay leno. It’s great.
Or their cover of the Bee Gees' I Started a Joke ...
The great thing about that cover is that I still hear it pretty frequently while grocery shopping.
@@Malfehzan 2nd that!
Yup.
Mike is one of my favourite vocalists of all time. You can’t judge him by one song as he has such a range in style. Try listening to Caffeine and then listen to their cover of I Started a Joke. It’s hard to believe it’s the same singer.
YES to both of those. Or Edge of the world and then Cuckoo for caca 😁
I’ve never even heard the original song of I started a joke
@@metalmanny666it’s by the bee-gees
6 octaves 1/2 note; and he does everything, from zombie screams in "I Am Legend" movie, to beautiful 50's Italian songs as "Mondo Cane"
And left 4 dead 2 zombie sounds
Last of us as well he did all those creatures
I'm so happy you finally did a Mike Patton video! He is amazing.
There is a vast Mike Patton rabbit hole you can go down. He's a fascinating artist!
It's amazing how much stuff Mike Patton has done. My brain exploded when I realized how much voice work he's done in Film. The first time I realized this was when I saw he did the voices for all the creatures in I Am Legend.
Also sung a song, Bird's Eye, with Serj Tankian for the movie Body of Lies.
I think my favorite guest appearance was the EP with Dillinger Escape Plan
in the portal game also
To hear another voice which has a very well developed, but harsh/damaged voicing with some apparent "false cord engagement," please please do an analysis of Tom Waits.
Also did the theme song for the Teenage mutant ninja turtles : shredders revenge video game
Mike Patton in Two words…Absolute genius
Faith No More - Evidence I think is one of the best contrasts to his style in this song. It's very smooth and jazzy.
one of the best types of videos is someone hearing mike patton for the first time
I remember being at Download festival and Mike Patton started singing Lady Gaga's "Poker Face" as an introduction to the Faith No More song "Chinese Arithmatic" and he sang it in such a way that he turned his voice into the effect of someone scratching on a turntable. We couldn't stop laughing in disbelief at what he had just done. It's on CZcams too..Worth watching.
Probably the most versatile vocal on the planet. Damn, Patton can sing anything
The man, the myth, the legend.! One of the greatest ever, mindblowing vocal range.
Mike Patton is the personification of "because I can". Probably the biggest rabbit hole you can dive in. So many different bands, so many different styles...
This is a deep and rewarding rabbit hole. He is amazing.
Mike Pattons Voice have a range of 6 octaves. One of the most gifted and creative singers ever. Frontman of Faith No More, Mr Bungle, Fantomas, tomahawk and a lot more. And off course his Italian crooner project Mondo Cane. Mr Patton is absolutely amazing!!
😊you know what he is? CHEEKY!!!
Exactly!
Is Mindo Cane exclusively sung in Italian?
@@metalmanny666 yes, it's an album of him covering catchy Italian pop songs from the 1960s.
Just saw him on Monday with Mr.Bungle. That man is beyond amazing.
I saw him with Bungle a couple weeks ago. So amazing.
The last show I saw before the world shut down for the pandemic was Mr. Bungle, absolutely amazing
Wtf touring!. How where?
Mike Patton is insanely good, and is not bound by such concepts as vocal style.
Mike Patton is one of the voices of my life ❤
He can do anything vocally, just amazing.
I am in love with this reaction. Thank you for explaining what he's up to. I loved this so much! Keep on being great!!
He sings this song a lot more aggressively live than on the album. He has such a gorgeous and powerful head voice, and his versatility is off the charts. Faith No More - "The Last to Know" is a great example of his clean tone throughout the whole song.
Mike Patton is the GOAT, there's no other vocalist/performer like him. Just saw Mr. Bungles 2 shows at First Ave. in Minneapolis and he's as good now as when I saw Faith No More at the same venue in 1990. And at the end when you talk about his technique keep in mind he is completely self taught.
All the best and greatest singers are self-taught. ))
The man of the thousand voices
Seeing Faith no more live in Sydney in 2015 was one of the best shows I've ever seen. This live video doesn't quite show his quality. When he's on, he's one of the best singers I've ever seen.
I saw them back in the 90s during the "epic"-tour, and it was mind-blowing how close not only Mike but the whole band sounded as if it came directly from the CD. So tight, so on point, crystal clear, up to the last song no sign of fatigue. I never experienced that level of perfection in any rock-live-show ever since.
I was absolutely devastated when they had to cancel their last Aus tour. Really hoping they can make it back here one last time 🙏
Similar feeling having seen him with Tomahawk opening for Tool. Unforgettable.
I love the fact here that he is on Leno and is just fking around really, and even deliberately doing the weird deep vocals just to throw everyone 😄
Mike Patton is an all time GOAT, I wish more people could enjoy his genius vocals.
The most influential band in alternative metal
The bass sound is awesome
I've never heard of alternative metal. But it fits. Kinda like numetal
He has done everything from Lounge to Italian Opera to Death Metal to Avant Garde noise with what I was reading a 7 octave range.
My absolute favorite vocalist of all time. Incredibly versatile and creative. I hope you dive in to more of his work. So many projects to choose from.. FNM, Mr. Bungle, Tomahawk, Fantomas, Peeping Tom, etc etc. He even did an album of covers of 50s/60s Italian pop/big band songs as Mondo Cane.
I hope you listen to the studio recording too to hear how masterful his harmonies and background singing arrangements can be too.
It's amazing how impressive he is considering he's self-taught. He's one of my favorite vocalists of all-time. Incredibly versatile and his voice work outside of music is kinda wild
Mike can pretty much do any damn thing he wants to vocally. your face when he changed from the growl to singing was great. lol
Mike Patton is married to a an Italian lady and he moved to Italy and has been living there for years. There are performances of him singing Italian Opera in Italy and they are stunning. I highly suggest you explore those.
Their song "Evidence" shows another style that Mike Patton can do, lounge singing. They have so many good songs where he sings differently. I can't remember which song it is, but he can do operatic singing as well.
“King for a Day” Pinkpop Festival 1995- If you wanna see this band throw down proper. They were running on all cylinders. The end really hits me in the feels. It could’ve been a gnat or some dust in his eye but he even sheds a tear.
“Don’t let me die with that silly look in your eye” 👁️ 💧
Ok, a 2nd comment - a more personal note. Watching you getting into the songs groove and digging it... was pure joy. This just made my day. Cheers from Germany
Mike Patton, Devin Townsend, Phil Anselmo = Vocal Gods. The diversity… they are all on another level.
Agreed 🤘
Mondo Cane live (Mike Patton doing a bunch of classic Italian pop songs) is pretty mind blowing too.
get ready for a long long journey. his vocal range is huge and his style is diverse as f... my very favorite vocalist.
More Patton please!
Mike Patton has around 1 million different voices in his pocket, in this song he uses a couple of them:P He has a full 6 octave range (which is just insane)
He's also done some voice acting for games, where when you hear it you gotta think he was probably the only one who could play the part (The darkness f.ex.).
I recommend doing a deep dive :D In faith no more he's a rock singer, in Mr Bungle he's like a human sound effect machine played backwards at double speed :P
First time seeing your channel. Brilliant description of his voice. He’s an incredible singer. Interesting how his singing in this song grows on me as you replay it. I’ve been a fan of FNM for years. Now I’m a fan of yours…hahaha… You have a sweet voice and personality. Thank you 🙏🏻
I scrolled really far and didn't see anyone mention it but he was also the voice of a character called The Darkness in the videogame The Darkness. Not the main character, the character of The Darkness. It's incredible what he was able to do with his voice.
Mr. Bungle debut album has Mike at his most experimental and ambitious self. Travolta is an emotional rollercoaster.
Someone hasn't listened to Disco Volante. I'm taking the piss...the debut album is great and all over the place but DV is absolutely fucking insane.
@@16ozClawHammeris disco volante his Italian project?
@@metalmanny666 No, that's Mondo Cane.
@@16ozClawHammer and it’s exclusively all in Italian?
He can do everything from thrash to opera. Hands downy favorite vocalist
Mr. Bungle - Ars Moriendi (live @ bizarre fest) is a perfect example of his range and technical variety.
Great reaction by the way! 👍🏻
I saw Mike back in March at Sydney. Even in real life he sounds incredible. He covered Hopelessly Devoted To You. Amazing.
I'll never get bored of seeing people discover the absolute greatness of Mike Patton.
We would love to hear your personal 'false chord engagement' that you "play around with". Please please do a Faith No More cover for us in your voice! We want to see you fully expressed like Mike!
Oh boy. The Patton rabbit hole is deep and rich. Go ahead and set aside a few months of your life if you're considering even scratching the surface of his vocal ability.
My top 3 singers are Mark Lanegan, Chris Cornell and Mike Patton. Mike's variety is amazing. He has a project called Mondo Cane where he sings 50's & 60's Italian pop songs with a full orchestra and backing band. It's so great even though I don't understand Italian. He has a lot of REALLY weird music which I love, but it is not for everyone. Mr. Bungle, Tomahawk, Fantomas are some of his other bands. There's a new live recording of "My Ass Is On Fire" that is pretty good quality. He's just amazing. I got to see him live once in like 91 or 92, with Mr Bungle and he was wearing a darth vader mask (or some kind of mask, my brain is a little hazy) and I was bummed because his expressions are so great to watch. I really need to see him perform again. 💜💙💛
where is layne staley?
@@acidjane8883 I really like Alice in Chains but I don't connect on a personal level as much to their music. So even though I admire Layne's talent, he's not on the top of my personal fave list.
Oh, right off the bat the faces were PRICELESS!!!
I LOVE yhe OFFICIAL VIDEO, and studio version
I'll never forget the Surprise! You're Dead live clip with him yelling into a megaphone
I went to Faith No More concert back in the early 90s and they sang the Hershey's Alpine White theme at the concert. That haunting melody and then Mike came in with "Creamy White....dreamy white....." I laughed so hard - it's just an indication of what hams these guys cane be too. LOL The concert was so powerful and it was a great experience. Glad you had a chance to hear this and love the commentary!
Mike Patton - the Picasso of vocalists. Really nice reaction and insight you have.
Ms. @The Vocalyst you’re doing a great job. Stay strong 💪
Once again you provide a reaction and insight second to none. Mike Patton is an incredible vocalist. Looking forward to more to come.
Just stumbled across your channel and I have to admit i really admired watching you listen to this and your reaction i truly enjoyed it hope to see more of you have a great memorial day weekend
I always learn so much from your videos. Keep up the great work, I love your content
You have not heard anything yet, until you hear his catalog.
You have to go way back, to the early days and listen to how they first began
I’ve been waiting for this day. Welcome to the wonderful, mad world of Mike Patton. You have so much more to discover. One of the best vocalist of our time.
Now you get to delve into the wide array of styles he does, so bloody good! Can't wait to see some more.
More of Mike Patton please!!!
I am goíng down the Mike Patton rabbithole!😂😂
The look on your face when he goes straight into that clean belt after doing the harsh vocals is priceless. The look when he goes into the scream voice right after that is even better! Fantastic reaction!
I"m sure many others have said this, but Mike Patton's range is like no other. If you want to lose your mind - listen to Mr. Bungle, and then his Italian 50's 60's pop crooner album Mondo Cane - backed by a full orchestra, band, and choir.
I loved this reaction so much. The joy on your face while watching this performance was so great to see. Mike Patton is a very special vocalist.
Mike Patton is the best rock singer of all time
I remember the first time I heard this song and trying to wrap my head around ending the line one syllable short and then starting the next line with that dropped syllable. Genius.
More Mike Patton, please! I had been waiting for this for forever!
He's going over the top in this performance for the benefit of the middle of the road talk show audience. Mike Patton is an amazing vocal chameleon. You should check out the documentary of Bjork's Medulla album. All vocal sounds and Patton features on it.
😮It's not a great demonstration of his vocal talents, but I hope you delve more into songs with Faith No More and his other bands Tomahawk, Mr Bungle etc.
Tomahawk- God Hates a Coward
czcams.com/video/0aA5NxTujqg/video.htmlsi=0b5swGdeQq7TuOVW
Mondo Cane II Cielo in una Stanza (he sings in Italian)
czcams.com/video/0k60OiMq5KA/video.htmlsi=hOXE4fspAp_BkeiH
Came here to recommend that Tomahawk song. One of my favourites.
mike patton is from another world and we ALL thank him for that - merciiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
I can remember seeing this at 15 and being utterly shocked to the point my adrenaline shot up and my heart was pounding for most of the performance. I had already listened to The Real Thing, but this was something so new and entirely fresh. It cemented in me a life long fandom for Mike Patton, a true inspiration to any that enjoy to mimicking sounds, and a revelation to those that sing beyond convention.
Mike is one of the most eclectic vocalists in rock genre. So unique.
"Epic" official video on MTV was most people's first experience with Faith No More.
More Mike Patton please 🙏
huge fan of the band, particularly the frontman. For me it's fun to watch it these days - - now with your observations, knowledge, professionalism and commentary. So it's like "entering my former (music) cosmos" through a brand new door discover smth I couldn't see (hear) before. Pls continue, love what you're doing...
There needs to be more of Mike, but not 'Epic', it doesn't show off his range at all! My pick would be Faith No More - Smaller and Smaller (studio) or This Guy's in Love with You (MTV live).
Great reaction!
Please do more Faith No More. This is just the tip of the iceberg.
You should check out live footage of his Mondo Cane-album...singing 50s & 60s Italian crooners with Mike Patton-intensity and full orchestra. Gotta love it ❤
Glad you checked out Mike Patton. Pleeeaaase check out one of the many vocal compulsions of him you'll find on CZcams. This one song can't show his crazy range and versatility at all.
Greetings from Germany
Mr. Bungle. My absolute favorite Patton albums. Every one of them. Fantastic music.
As lots of other people here are commenting, it's hard to get a sense of what Mike Patton does with one song. Or even one project. Besides Faith No More, he's got seemingly endless side projects, guest spots, etc. in every genre you can think of. Wanna hear some funk metal? Listen to early Faith No More. Want jazzy circus metal? Check out Mike in the band he started in high school (and still plays with today), Mr. Bungle. Looking to hear some classic Italian pop songs (sung in Italian) from a decade when your grandmother was young? Check out Mike's "Mondo Cane" project (especially the live shows with orchestra). Hankering for some experimental vocalise over atmospheric instruments that serves as the soundtrack for a comic book? Try Mike with one of his supergroups, Fantomas. Math metal? Mike did an album with Dillinger Escape Plan. Noise jazz? Mike worked with Japanese noise artist, Merzbow, and has done many shows and albums with John Zorn. Poppy rap/hip-hop? Mike's got a project for that too: Peeping Tom. Straight-up rock with another supergroup? Tomahawk. Mellow love songs? Mike Patton with Lovage. Wordless vocal experiments and sound effects with no instruments? Mike did several albums with just his voice and a tape recorder, such as "Adult Themes For Voice." Interested in seeing just Mike and a beatboxer making music? Try any of his songs with Rahzel. And the list just goes on and on and on. For real, I don't think CZcams comments allow enough characters to list all of Mike Patton's side projects.
The man has a 6 octave range and a thousand different voices, textures, techniques, etc. It's legit crazy what he can do with his voice. Heck, he's even done monster sounds and fx for video games, movies, etc. The vampire creatures in that Will Smith movie, "I Am Legend"? Mike Patton.
If you want to get a good sense of Mike Patton's voice, I personally would suggest sampling from a couple of the bands I mentioned above. Here are a few that I think give you a broader spectrum of what he does:
- "CAROUSEL" - Mr. Bungle. I'd suggest the album version for this one to get the most vocal bang for your buck. John Zorn produced this and the layers are crazy. Plus I think you'll appreciate some of the vocal tricks that are going on here.
- "AIR CONDITIONED NIGHTMARE" - Mr. Bungle. czcams.com/video/J4rqXqpLCZ0/video.html If you prefer a live performance. Also, while "Carousel" was from their debut album and has more of a jazzy circus metal vibe, "Air Conditioned Nightmare" is from a later album that was Mr. Bungle's take on The Beach Boys (each of their album's is themed) and so has a very different sound to it.
- "DEEP DEEP DOWN" - Mike Patton, from the "Mondo Cane" album. This live performance is a good one: czcams.com/video/zaUrzMeS4xg/video.html
- "GOD HATES A COWARD" by Tomahawk. There's a great live version here: czcams.com/video/0aA5NxTujqg/video.html What's great about this performance is you get to see Mike doing something he does a lot, and that's use a bunch of different mics during a song (as well as one mic that will surprise you), each one for a specific voice or sound. Plus, as a vocal coach, I think you'll enjoy getting to see a really great example of a relaxed tongue in at least one of the close-ups. That being said, my favorite song from this performance is...
- "FLASHBACK." czcams.com/video/qvCX4zjp6Lc/video.html You don't get the surprising mic or the relaxed tongue, but, of the two, I prefer this song. Both are really great performances though.
- "PIG LATIN" - Dillinger Escape Plan. Again, this is one where I'd suggest the album version to get the full vibe of it.
- "CAFFEINE" - Faith No More. If you want to stick with FNM, this is one of the best songs off one of their best albums (imo) and gives you a few Mike Patton textures to sink your teeth into. There are a couple of good live versions out there (though, in the best one, he steps on the mic cord at the big moment of the song, causing him to accidentally drop the mic at the final note) but the album version is still what I'd recommend here. If you need a live, though, I'm sure we can find you a good one.
A lot of people here will probably suggest Faith No More's cover of the Commodores' song, "Easy." Personally, I don't think that's a great one to get a feel for Mike's voice. It's fine... but it's basically just a karaoke version of "Easy." Unlike most of the rest of FNM's catalog, they didn't do anything interesting with it and pretty much played it note for note. It's just a straight cover that's well done and everything, but is so similar to the original that, imo, it's kind of redundant. And, like many covers, as good as it is, the original is still better. Just my take on that one. On the other hand, maybe you want to chase the audience a little (because views = more algo love) and "Easy" is Faith No More's biggest hit outside of their first single with Mike Patton as their vocalist, "Epic." Unfortunately, this is one of those cases where the most popular songs that crossed over to mainstream success are also the ones that showcase only one very narrow aspect of his vocals and are probably fine for views but not so great for actually learning much about Mike's voice, the creativity with which he uses it, or about him as an artist. Ymmv.
Just came from one of his concerts for mr bungle. Crazy genius. Unreal vocalist
Definitely need More Faith no more and more Mike
Mike Patton is a tremendous vocalist. His work with Faith No More and Mr. Bungle are some of my favorites. One of the biggest surprises, though, was the album Mondo Cane. He performs older Italian pop songs with an orchestra and his voice is phenomenal.
the man of the thousand voices, you only have to choose the right songs
The best of all times! 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Falling To Pieces was always my favorite song of theirs.
So glad you finally discovered Mike Patton. What a monster vocalist. This band is great, too, but he has a number of bands/projects. He has a very impressive range, and extreme variety of vocal expressions, and he can make the most astounding sounds with his voice. The most amazing thing I find in this performance, is not only seamlessly moving between vocal styles/tones, but also alternating between singing 'normally' by exhaling and then inhaling sounds throughout the rough vocals. He has amazing technique and has kept his voice healthy.
Live Mike also vocalises on the in breath as well as the out breath to feed his lungs enough oxygen to keep going. He understands his body's limitations and adapts it for every live performance. Such respect for this man, the way he uses his voice as an instrument, not just to sing melodies is mind-blowing. Look for his live Tomahawk videos.
Please check out "Just a Man" which is one of Mike Patton's most versatile vocal recordings. He's sings in a soulful manner so just imagine Mike Patton in a church choir which is completely different and incredible.
Yeah! I'm so glad you enjoyed Mike Patton's amazing voice! It is by far my favorite voice in rock! He can scream, croon, grunt and swoon, all in the same song! I highly recommend you listen to more, especially their cover of "Easy" by the Commodores! And don't forget about Bjork!
The greatest vocalist of my generation! Faith No More, has influenced music onto this generation, yet Mike's influence in ALL genres will forever be legendary! Please do look up and react to Mondo cane❤
Song "The last to know" , Faith no More, from the album King for a day
Yeah, Mike Patton is a crazy person. I like that people like him exist. Very few people can do what he does.
