realpoti Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 You already know my opinion. They're probably one of the most diverse (and acessible) bands of the 90's. Synthetizers with bass and aggressive vocals by the best frontman alive. It's a shame people still compare them to RHCP because of The Real Thing, they're much better than that.

Johnny Drama Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 Manets turn this into a wider Patton thread for everything - FNM, Tomahawk, Fantomas, Peeping Tom etc. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MEXzilla Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 Never really got into them since they reminded me RHCP which ain't bad but not as great as many have said they are. Still I didn't dug into their music so idk maybe there's other stuff worthy of being called great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZoSoRose Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 I saw Patton with Tomahawk for a bit a month or two ago at Orion festival. They were meh but it was cool to see Patton in person Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hudsonsaul Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 Great band. Caught them a few years ago and it was a shitload of fun.Comparisons to RHCP is stupid, whilst RHCP themselves haven't done anything decent in decades. Overrated band imho.Blind Melon is another great 90s band that was seriously underrated & innovative, sadly the song that brought them success kinda fucked things up for them too. Blind Melon, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, Nirvana, good times being a teenager then with that stuff plastered everywhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnny Drama Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 Comparing them to RHCP is weird. The only similarities are the slap bass and rapped vocals in the early days.Patton is miles ahead of Kiedis in the talent department.

The only similarities are the slap bass and rapped vocals in the early days.Patton is miles ahead of Kiedis in the talent department.Patton clearly has a wider vocal range than Kiedis. But like you said, they can't properly be compared. All in all, I enjoying the RHCP quite a bit more.Doesn't change the fact that Patton's voice is amazing though.

Amir Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 Saw FNM at Brixton Academy July 2012. Amazing show. Whole stage covered in white sheets and flowers (I was at the front and they smelled beautiful ). Then the band comes on, all dressed in white, have a heavy jam, then the keyboard player starts playing Tom Jones' Delilah. On walks Patton, in a white suit and a white panama hat, and he sings the first verse and chorus of Delilah.What a show.Also, check out Patton's album of Italian '60s/'70s pop covers, Mondo Cane.

wasted Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 "What do you want from christmas? How's about a baaaaad trip? Oh, c'mon live a little!" - Patton, introducing Jizzlobber live.Tomahawk last one was awesome. Stone Letter, South Paw, Odd Fellows, Black Hats.I'd go for Angel Dust first, if you don't like it maybe you should join Korn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tater Totts Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 Love them, been a fan of theirs for a while but it has only been in the last three years I've really gotten into their wider stuff outside of Angel Dust and The Real Thing.

There were a couple of girls at the front who'd seen them 7 or 8 times, they said they'd only seen it once, I was surprised it's not a staple.

Jabberwocky Posted September 7, 2013 Share Posted September 7, 2013 (edited) Love them. Got to see them live at RFK Stadium during the GNR-Metallica tour.
