Angel Dust - Faith No More

The fourth studio release by heavy metal, funk, hip-hop, and progressive rock 'fusionist' Faith No More. Released in 1992, predecessor to and had them burst into mainstream 'The Real Thing'

What was thought a follow up to Faith No More's mainstream success, Angel Dust proved otherwise. An ambitiously off-the-wall and misrepresented masterpiece which may not cater to the average rock fans. But it was truly an inspiring effort at it's finest.

The album opens up with "Land Of Sunshine" a catchy mesmerizer baseline written by front man Mike Patton during his sleep deprivation experiment. My pick "Everything's Ruined" a rising charged track, Billy Gould at his best once again. The album closes in with a cover of John Barry's "Midnight Cowboy", a theme song to the TV Show.

Angel Dust is by far regarded as one of the greatest releases in the 90's. It set new grounds for future bands and styles namely Nu-Metal. Truly an album for the more adventurous listeners.
