LABEL: Ipecac RecordingsVINYL RELEASE DATE: 5/17/2024ORIGINAL RELEASE DATE: 1999VARIANT: Black Vinyl LP Has there ever been a metal supergroup as instantly, profoundly weird as Fan tômas? Comprising current and former members of Mr. Bungle, Melvins and Slayer, the band crafted a self-titled debut packed with white noise, mock operatics, Spaghetti Western sludge, amp-exploding guitar doom, and the occasional thrash beat courtesy of Dave Lombardo. Above all this, Mike Patton delivers a series of percussively onomatopoeic, distortion-blown vocal exercises more becoming of a beatboxer or an Inuit throat-singer than a traditional metal frontman.
