Faith No More - Alt Rock, Funk Metal, Garage Rock (1979–1998, 2009

Faith No More was formed after the breakup of Faith. No Man.. They underwent several lineup changes including a period of where they would play 'open mic' shows where they'd invite people to take on vocal duties. Courtney Love and Paula Frazer were two of the temporary vocalists which occasioned the mic at these shows.

Finally they settled on Chuck Mosley (Vocals), Roddy Bottum (Keyboards), Billy Gould (Bass Guitar), Mike Bordin (drums) and Jim Martin (Guitar). They released their debut album 'We Care A Lot' on Mordam Records in 1985.

They were signed to Slash Records and released 'Introduce Yourself' in 1987. This album spawned their first hit 'We Care A Lot'. Due to tensions within the band Chuck Mosley was fired prior to the recording of their third studio album 'The Real Thing'. Mosley was replaced by Mike Patton.

'The Real Thing' was released in 1989 to critical and commercial acclaim. It featured another rock/rap hit called 'Epic' plus a string of other minor hit singles. 'The Real Thing' was the first album by the band to achieve platinum sales figures in the US.

Their fourth studio album 'Angel Dust' the second with new vocalist Mike Patton. The album met critical success and is often deemed their most important record. It is often cited as the album which gave birth to Nu-Metal.

On February 24, 2009 the band announced their reunion as a touring entity. Between 2011 and in 2014 they played three new songs. In September 2014 they announced that Warner Bros. agreed to formally end their recording contract which allowed them to launch their new label Reclamation! Recordings, which would release a new single 'Motherfucker' in November 2014 and a new album 'Sol Invictus' in May 2015.
