Faith No More's Official Return

Today at 6:47pm

The official statement from the band:

Faith No More has always stood out as some sort of unique beast; part dog, part cat--its music almost as schizophrenic as the personalities of its members. When it all worked, it worked really well, even if the chemistry was always volatile. Throughout our 17 years of existence, the mental and physical energy required to sustain this creature was considerable and relentless. Though amicable enough, when we finally split, we all followed paths seemingly destined to opposite ends of the universe.

Yet during the entire 10 years that have passed since our decision to break up we've experienced constant rumors and requests from fans and promoters alike. Nevertheless, for whatever reason, none of us kept in regular touch, much less to discuss any possibilities of getting together.

What's changed is that this year, for the first time, we've all decided to sit down together and talk about it. And what we've discovered is that time has afforded us enough distance to look back on our years together through a clearer lens and made us realize that through all the hard work, the music still sounds good, and we are beginning to appreciate the fact that we might have actually done something right.

Meanwhile we find ourselves at a moment in time with zero label obligations, still young and strong enough to deliver a kickass set, with enthusiasm to not only revisit our past but possibly add something to the present. And so with this we've decided to hold our collective breaths and jump off this cliff....
BACK, GOD FORBID, INTO THE MONKEY CAGE!!!

We can only hope that the experience of playing together again will yield results erratic and unpredictable enough to live up to the legacy of FNM.
Who know where this will end or what it will bring up...only the future knows. But we are about to find out!

FAITH NO MORE are:
Mike Bordin, Roddy Bottum, Bill Gould, Jon Hudson and Mike Patton

I am gonna have to save up for a trip to Europe this summer. So fuckin jackt.

Faith No More are set to reform and play a European tour this year.

The reformation of the band, led by Mike Patton, was confirmed by their publicist, reports Idolator.com.

It is reported that the band, who initially split in 1998 with the band members pursuing other musical outlets, will play a European tour this year - with summer festival dates likely.

It is thought that guitarist Jim Martin, who left the band in 1993, will not be part of the reunion.

STOP FUCKIN COCK TEASING ME WITH THIS FAITH NO MORE REUNION SHIT!  A MAN CAN ONLY TAKE SO MUCH! REPORT IT WHEN IT IS WRITTEN IN BLOOD. LAST THING I FUCKIN NEED IS MY HOPES UP.

SINCERLY,
PISSED OFF.

P.S. Not really that pissed off.  If they do get back together, im sure it will only be a european tour, in which case I should probably start saving my pennys now.

If I could somehow get to see a Jesus Lizard and GBV co-headlining tour I think I would fuckin explode with excitement, and if that didnt kill me, the unnatural amount of booze I would consume that night would.  Regardless.  Yow is up there in my top 5 front men of all time.  Dude is pure punk rock gold.  A national tresure.

So I finally got around to seeing this movie.  I must say they did not reinvent the wheel with this movie, and I think that is the greatest compliment.  Finally taking Jason back to Crystal Lake where he belongs.  No body switching (although I like Jason Goes To Hell), no space (I hated Jason X and refuse to even acknowledge it as part of the franchise) , and no Freddy (although I love Freddy.)  I dont understand why the "hardcores" are bitching about this movie.  Lets run down the list shall we? Jason, check.  Hot girls, check. Naked hot girls, check. Pretty sweet killings, check.  Annoying as fuck characters that you cannot wait to see die, check.  

This pretty much runs through the entire series.  So quit yr bitching, and just be happy Jason is back at Crystal Lake where he belongs.....even if he did kill Mrs. Modano....I will not hold that against him.

P.S. To the couple 3 seats over.  Next time you are gonna have a big fight, and talk about breaking up, you wanna maybe take it to the lobby next time so the rest of us can enjoy some good slashin?  Where is Jason when you really need em?

So I went to Orange monkey to look for the new Trail of Dead.  No dice.  This is not a good sign.  I figure that at least Encore will have it! Nothing.  Al at the counter checks for me and tells me that it is delayed until March 3rd.  Al did however somehow remeber a couple weeks ago when I asked why they never have THE WHO SELL OUT on cd.  Before I knew it he ran over and grabbed a freshly delivered copy and put it in my hands. at $10.99 it was hard to not wanny buy this gem.  THANKS AL!  While I was looking at the vinyl section, I noticed they just got in a copy of the new vinyl version of Pauls Boutique by the Beastie Boys.  I was so pumped up that I had to buy it.  PB is easily one of the greatest, and most flawless albums ever fuckin created.  As I type I am listening to a tune that samples drums from Zepp, and guitar riffage from Alice Cooper......need I say more? 

Do not park within 3 meters of a fire hydrant

Go out today at lunch or whenever, and pick up the new Trail of Dead album.  I love TOD days.  Toddays if you will.  It should be a national holiday.  Pretty god damn jackt from what I have herd.

As cool as I think it is he opened up the show with Runnin with the Devil, Patton has gotta lay off the rap. If you wanna rap, at least sing something off of The Real Thing!
Crudo, Running With the Devil

Love my QT.

Inglourious Basterds Teaser

pavement+suck=weezer

I was on a youtube page, and came across a weezer video. Some dude wrote that. Fuckin hilarious.

....and its rockin! Pretty fired up to hear this album. Lets just hope that the drummer has a couple songs on this one. His rockers have seriously been lacking on past albums. We will see. Fired up none the less.

NEW TRAIL OF DEAD TUNE

I guess the key is Snapple.

And crank some fuckin HELLA-FUCKIN-COPTERS.

Only on Conan, hahaha.

I am pretty fuckin jackt to go see Kurt and Trish this weekend in Ottawa. I have never been there, so I am pretty fired up. If anyone knows anything fun to do there, or something I should check out let me know. Gonna paint the town brown!!

Here is my latest poster for Revival Dear.

I might put this song an repeat all day today. 6 listens and my work day will be done. Such a good tune. I dont even care that its 19 minutes long....lord knows Mogwai Fear Satan is kick ass at that length.

I just made this music video for The Bronx song Past Lives.  I got really bored sitting at home and this is what happens.  Hope you dig!

What the hell were they thinking?!?!?!

I used to like this guy, but I guess being Mr Wayne gets to your head.  What a prickjob.

Director Edger Wright will be at the Bloor Cinemas on Feb 28th to show Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz, as well as an uncut version of the Grindhouse trailer DONT.

I wish I could go, but I just realized it is the same day as the mighty D Dawgs stag party. In a battle between Zombies and D Dawgs, Zombies lose.

Got a couple Pollard related vinyls for my birthday. Fired up!
