I like it as well as anythying else they did post Angel Dust (which I think is one of the greatest albums of the 90's). To be honest I haven't listened that much to the other post AD records, and this sounds just like those. It's perfectly fine.

first listen. Matador the stand-out but plenty of good stuff here I think.
― Keith Moom (Neil S), Wednesday, 27 May 2015 18:47 (nine years ago) link
Matador, Cone of Shame and Separation Anxiety are the stand-outs for me.

Can anybody point to an interview or article that goes into the title track from The Real Thing at all? By far my favorite FNM song, but I haven't really seen the band members talk about it, I don't think.

got both REal Thing and Angel Dust reissues.
main diff I hear with Angel Dust reissue is that there's more separation between the layers...Jim Martin's riffs are more clear in parts where they were typically obscured a little by the keyboards. and they definitely have a bit more bite. some more separation on the keyboards so that in a few areas I can hear things I didn't previously. but really I'm more stoked for the 2nd disc.

listening to the AD extras disc now, the odds and sods are all pretty great, not least As the Worm Turns, a bit of a minor lost classic IMO
― Keith Moom (Neil S), Wednesday, 10 June 2015 11:12 (eight years ago) link
The Pitchfork review of the reissues is the best writing I've seen on FNM this press cycle.

I love Angel Dust too. I saw Faith No More for my first ever rock show, playing with Guns N' Roses and Soundgarden at Wembley!

The live tracks on the reissue are so good
― Immediate Follower (NA), Wednesday, 10 June 2015 20:56 (eight years ago) link
I'm a bit disappointed by the live tracks - search out their 1992 show at Sheffield Arena or Phoenix Festival in 1993 (their final show w/Jim), which should be quite easy to find online: both have better sound quality and Patton is lunatic throughout.
I'm a bit disappointed by the bonus tracks as a whole, really, most of which are previously-released B-side stuff - what ever happened to demos, out-takes, etc? Like, I would love to hear what the Real Thing songs sounded like when the band played them to Patton at his audition - I feel Warners just couldn't quite be bothered to do that level of research and just wanted to cash in on FNM as their reunion hit its peak.
That Patton-vocaled As The Worm Turns is a cracker, though.
― ONE OF THEM FUCKING JESUS (stevie), Thursday, 11 June 2015 08:54 (eight years ago) link
Since the band had nothing to do with the re-releases I assume access to early demos and the like were probably not available. The label cashed in on what they had.
― EZ Snappin, Thursday, 11 June 2015 12:47 (eight years ago) link
I had the feeling that that was the case.

Mike could guest on You Suffer!
BRUSH WITH FAME, Faith No More edition: A friend and I went to the Ted Leo show in Cleveland (for the 25th anniversary of local venue the Grog Shop). While we were there we ran into a woman we know who works at the restaurant in our office building, and she introduced us to her boyfriend of three decades, who happens to be Chuck Mosley. He was really cool, hung around and chatted with us for a while after the show. He also got on stage with one of the opening bands, Falling Stars, and sang "Every Day Is Like Sunday."

The Mosley family statement reads:
After a long period of sobriety, Charles Henry Mosley III lost his life, on November 9th, 2017, due to the disease of addiction. We’re sharing the manner in which he passed, in the hopes that it might serve as a warning or wake up call or beacon to anyone else struggling to fight for sobriety. He is survived by long-term partner Pip Logan, two daughters, Erica and Sophie and his grandson Wolfgang Logan Mosley. The family will be accepting donations for funeral expenses. Details to follow when arranged.

Saw this version of the band in '87. They were fun, a little dorky, but in a good way. Opened for Red Hot Chili Peppers w/ Hillel Slovak. Disappointing news.

like the math of how you get Roddy, Patton & Jim in the same band is insane, let alone Mike & Bill
― werewolves of laudanum (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 1 February 2023 04:33 (one year ago) link
ha, great way of putting it. I recently did a relisten of their 90s albums and the friction is definitely what makes them interesting to listen to
― Vinnie, Wednesday, 1 February 2023 04:34 (one year ago) link
Watching old videos and thinking about that ums post:
In "Epic" and ESPECIALLY "We Care A Lot," you can see obviously that Billy/Roddy/Mike/Chuck are all total hams — Puff less so, but definitely "game." And throughout there's Jim, who just seems stoic and stubborn and like he never wants to play along, but that becomes its own kind of "straight man" routine that's funnier than the 3 or 4 wacky guys surrounding him. Just an insane dynamic, total inversion of the Limp Bizkit/Killswitch Engage/Rammstein trope of the One Wacky Guy by having a band of four Ernies and a Bert

Still love when I saw them in 15, they performed in all white dress outfits, and there were massive amounts of flowers on the stage.
And stagehands periodically kept bringing more, and more, a ridiculous amount of flowers at the front of the stage.
It was like an I Love Lucy bit. Great humorous way to set up the show
