u think this shite is difficult music?ceck out atrox or madder mortem or dream theater if u want to hear something original loser.

did i say it was difficult. i said different. madder mortem to me sounds like cradle of filth with a female vocalist. dream theater sounds like a shitty hair band version of H.I.M. the thing about music is it is all opinion you can't make it fact that what you listen to is better than what others listen to. i will agree with you about atrox though they are very good.

Mike Patton does get a whole lot of recognition because he makes a whole lot of "real" music. I don't know if you've heard of a little band called Faith No More, but they were one of the most influential bands of the nineties. Now he's in so many other bands like Fantomas, Tomahawk, Peeping Tom, and heaps more. They are all completely different, insanely creative and "real".
Just because Dream Theater play fast, does not mean they are good - they're hideously bad.

depends on how you look at it. Dream Theater are extremely talented and could play circles around Mr Bungle. On the other hand, Mr Bungle are MUCH more creative and in my opinion they are better song writers. I'd sure rather listen to Mr Bungle, but I don't think they could play what Dream Theater plays to save their lives.

DT's members aren't half the musicians the members of Mr Bungle are. Yes, I hate DT but i'm trying to not let that influence my opinion. Yes, DT's member are very 'technically' talented but Mr Bungle's members are absolutely amazing

but saying "absolutely amazing" is COMPLETELY subjective. Fact is, each band has their strengths, Bungle's is in creativity and DT's is in technicality. Neither one is better than the other, it is all up to opinion. Personally, I have a good amount of respect for every member of DT, save for the super generic singer, but I would much rather listen to Bungle any day of the week (I am at the moment in fact).

dream theater isn't my favorite band in the world but what mr bungle can't play compared to dream theater they make up in creativity and that is what floats my boat. make a list of bands that sound like mr. bungle and a list that sounds like dream theater and see which list is bigger.

TS: Dream Theater vs. Mr Bungle

that isn't even a contest ffs, dream theater vs. HIM far more OTM

disco volante vinyl repress:
http://www.auralexploits.com/product_5994.htm

this is pretty cool. I always kicked myself for passing on this back in tha day.

The secret track being in the middle of the third track of Disco Volante always makes me soooo happy.

just wanted to say that HI DERE was/is right about Stubb (A Dub)

Everyone needs to scroll back and read (or re-read!) the Mackro/Ned stories about the Celebrity Theater show.

That is the best possible way I could fritter away the remaining hour of this Friday afternoon. Those stories are a fucking treat.

By the way, vote for Bungle in J4gger's 1990s album poll.

I will! completely forgot about that, thanks.

remembering the existence of Mr Bungle is the single biggest spanner in the works of my own ballot

like, there's THREE legitimately brilliant albums to vote for ON TOP OF the eight or nine I'd been carefully prepping

given that disco volante is towards the upper third of my top three albums of all time, I'm guessing I might squeeze it in somewhere...

dude I have my all-time top 5* jockeying for position, more or less

*give or take Still Life, On Land And In The Sea, Blood Inside and Spirit Of Eden

louis, you know i love you, but i can't believe i opened this thread for these worthless posts

this is that thing again isn't it

the thing where i bump a thread for meaningless praise ¬_¬

"i can't believe i opened this thread for these worthless posts"

typing this out every time it's justified will give you serious RSI.

^^^ truthiest of truth bombs

Are you going to vote for Bungle in Jaggers little poll, whiney?

Disco Volante is one of my faves ever, but there's prolly like 50 rap albums I'd put above it

What about Sailing the Seas of Cheese?

maybe like 15 years ago

The glorious funk-metal revolution of 2011 is gonna bite you in the ass, man.

primus and mr bungle are so much more than funk-metal

oh shit sorry another useless post

"California" is such a pretty and exciting album.

read thread as "my bunghule broke up :("

one day I will work out what the best Mr Bungle album is, but that day is not today

IMO it's not the first one.

I'd agree with that if I hadn't been caning the first one pretty hard today - although some of their moral decisions are questionable at best on that one

That album opened my ears to a lot of music that I hadn't paid attention to before: Beach Boys and gamelan being pretty notable.

xp to abbott about california

Their first album is the thing that made me think "Blue Velvet" would be a totally fun-loving party film.

(The Girls Of Porn = the movie Irreversible with a clown mask on)

hahaha I was given Blue Velvet for my birthday and am waiting for a good opportunity to watch it - may just synch it up with the first Mr Bungle album, see what happens

I highly recommend not doing that.

I mean you could but *96 tears*

the first one is the worst of the three and i'm sure every member of mr. bungle would agree with that

Damn dude. For some reason, my wife has a copy of Blue Velvet in her movie collection. It's really out of character for a collection that's mostly cheesy horror and kung fu movies. I've never asked her why and she's never suggested watching it.

xpost
not that the first one isn't great, obv

yeah I'm kinda realising this - it's not as GOOD but it's hella fun, and about half the tracks are stone-dead stunning

disco volante and california are terrifyingly lucid fever-dreams and i treasure them dearly

my skin shrivels a little bit every time the words "funk-metal" and "mr bungle" appear in close proximity.

sjokes, bruv.

even so.

brrr.

i'm the biggest bungle fan there is, and there's no denying that first album was funk-metal, come on now

it has elements of funk-metal, sure, among many other things.

though it is by far the funk-metalest of the three.

'funk metal' makes me think of mordred.

note to self: stop saying funk-metal.

Fettle.

MUNK
