USA covered by Mr. Bungle

Mr. Bungle roar back with their first recorded music since 1999, releasing a blistering cover of The Exploited’s politically-charged anthem, “USA”

100% of the proceeds from this track will go to MusiCares Covid-19 Relief Fund through July 4th

my thread really took off.

[Wendy Carlos's Twin]

my thread really took off.

You expected a thread about something cool to actually take off around here?

Surely you jest.

[oasisfan35]

I listened to the Buckethead, DJ Flare and Patton show from 2000 this morning, I really wish Patton and Carroll would get together in some official capacity.

[Jammer XCI]

I got my ticketmaster refund for Faith No More today.

I'm never gonna see this fucker live.

[Dev]

It seems like it's been a while since he has made anything that great.

[VinylGuy]

Im a pretty huge Tomahawk fan. Mostly because of Mike but also, Trevor fucking Dunn.

[oasisfan35]

It seems like it's been a while since he has made anything that great.

Wow, Sol Invictus was five years ago already.
I should probably give Dead Cross and tētēma a listen again.

We excited to announce that we'll be releasing Mr. Bungle's first new album since 1999! The Raging Wrath Of The Easter Bunny Demo is coming Oct. 30th, and features original Mr. Bungle members Trevor Dunn, Mike Patton, and Trey Spruance, joined by Scott Ian (Anthrax, S.O.D.) and Dave Lombardo (Dead Cross, Slayer, Suicidal Tendencies).

The 11-song release features tracks written by the band for their 1986 cassette only demo as well as a reimagined cover of the S.O.D. classic “Hypocrites / Habla Español O Muere” (a.k.a. “Speak English or Die”) and Corrosion of Conformity’s “Loss For Words.”

"Recording THIS music with THESE guys was an enormous head-rush of virtuosity and surprises every day in the studio,” explains Patton. “Trey’s video game-esque solos, Scott’s bionic right hand and cyborg-like precision, Dave’s caveman-meets-Bobby Brady-like drum fills, Trevor’s solid foundation and laser-focus to detail. There is nothing sweeter than getting your ass kicked by true comrades…where everyone has a singular drive and mission.”

Trevor Dunn adds: “Recording this record felt like we were finally utilizing our Ph.Ds in Thrash Metal. All we had to do was go back to our original professors for some additional guidance and talk them into joining us. Turns out we were A+ students. We even went for extra credit by revisiting some tunes that we'd given up on back in the day. It was less like a trip of nostalgia and more like the refining of an original, worthy document. We were haunted for 35 years by the fact that this music wasn't given it's due respect. Now we can die.”

The album is available as a standard digipak CD and digitally, as well as a collection of limited edition offerings:

Wow, Sol Invictus was five years ago already.

Feeling fuckin' old right now bois.

[Jammer XCI]

That new old Mr. Bungle fucking shreds, Mike Patton making thrash metal is yet another strange only in 2020 occurrence.

[oasisfan35]

I listened to California this morning, pretty happy about the release.

[Ello Sailor]

Been listening to a lot of Peeping Tom and Bungle. He's just the best.

[Ello Sailor]

So do we all agree that California is the best Bungle album?

[LetMeSleep]

So do we all agree that California is the best Bungle album?

I certainly agree.

New Tomahawk okay, anyone?

[Jammer XCI]

Still need to listen to it.

But also, and I mean this as a very minor critique, between Dead Cross, Mr. Bungle's new-old thrash metal release, and the new Tomahawk song I already heard, all of Patton's projects are starting to sound a bit samey. Like you could have told me "Dog Eat Dog" was Mr. Bungle or Dead Cross and I would have believed it.

[Ello Sailor]

Retrovertigo might be Mike Patton's greatest ever vocal performance. I cannae believe it.

[VinylGuy]

when is the new tomahawk album dropping?
