Mike Patton Sure Knows How To Bum Me Out

The man

I was on Facebook before, writhing in pain because my fucking shoulder and neck are fucked, and I saw Mike Patton posted a link to an interview he did recently.

I clicked with mixed emotions: I was super psyched to read the interview, but pissed because I was told he was not doing interviews at the present time. What up with that, yo?

I started reading the interviewing. Solid. You should read it, in fact.

Then, came the question that inevitably comes in a Patton interview: What’s up with Faith No More?

Well, Mike Patton sure knows how to bum my ass the fuck out.

“It’s sort of petered out. We’re also maybe a little too conscious for our own good. Meaning there’s a lineage of bands that maybe did some nice things and then needed the cash and got back together and basically just sprayed diarrhea over their entire body of work. We’re very worried about that. We don’t want to overdo it.”

NO!

Thanks for the music, Mike. But no thanks for bumming me out.
