Mr Bungle (mentioned in these comments), particularly Patton, were fans of Cardiacs, (and vice-versa). Smith & Patton got to meet up when Patton was touring the UK, (my friend, who was produced several times by Smith, said he saw a picture of them both on Smith's wall). Despite being around since the early 80's, Cardiacs never broke, perhaps the music was too esoteric and weird for radio play? Also, their persona (at least in the early years) was way too odd for the mainstream, (if you see pictures of them in old uniforms and horrible make up it's because they were acting as a soldier/ ghost, although Smith would say they were only trying to look their best). The band did get some press notice, a centre page spread in some tatty UK tabloid, but only because Tim claimed that he and Sarah, (who played Sax and was his wife), were actually brother & sister who had an incestuous relationship. I was lucky enough to see Cardiacs in 2007 and it seemed the band where about to break big but he had a stroke/heart attack coming back from a My Bloody Valentine gig. Random Fun fact: Their manager also managed Napalm Death.

Simply put, if there was no David Gilmour there would be no Pink Floyd

Great player

Incredible live. And it sounds exactly like studio

Dude, their goal was to piss Warner Bros off

Marten be praised!

Can't wait to finally get to see PRR when they play London in December 😊♥️

Mike Patton is by far my favorite artist. First of all, you cannot ignore his 6 octave range. Mr. Bungle, Faith No More, Tomahawk, Peeping Tom, Dillinger Escape Plan, Fantomas, Dead Cross, Lovage, Crudo and more. Incredible. Check out The Directors Cut by Fantomas. It's movie theme songs remade using a lot of vocal... just check it out along with all the others.

Yes, it hurts like hell to say goodbye to your loved ones. Please, always have a veterinarian come to your home for moments like this, Jon, and everyone else. We want them to pass away in a comfortable, familiar environment. Smell is so important.

Travels In Nihilon

Just because there wasn't any profanity in this song, there is plenty on the rest of the album that make up for the lack in this song!

Nice Interview. I found out about the Album through Notes Reviews, went and listened to it a few times and then bought it. The 80s vibes whas the thing that pushed me over the edge and made me go buy it. Prog-Metal has gone very not Proggy and very same-y over the years. Mannequin has a lot of similarities to Hakes Affinity, which is my favorite of theirs despite also being critised over the synth-y approach. 80s sounds i really enjoy, that's why Jethro Tulls - Under Wraps is one of their greatest for me and i hope i see more bands go for that approach. Again, great interview @Bleeding Edge.

British Steel was a huge, loss-making, state-owned British company in the late 70's, then Britain's biggest steel producer. The song was a satire where out-of touch parents were deciding on their son's future in one of many slowly-failing, British companies at that time,

Wow, this is the first time I've heard the studio cut. I've been watching RUclips posts of live shows and love this tune. I saw them debut it in Los Angeles. Have not heard the new album. Looking forward. They are all educated musicians from prestiges schools. I think they lean to the avant garde with some elements of metal. Dan their bass player creates instruments. He created an instrument from the low strings of the piano he plays like a slide guitar. He calls it the sledgehammer dulsimer.

This is a great reaction! Give a couple more songs from this album a chance then move on to the next Bungle record. Each album sounds wildly different and is something you should give a shot. And I do mean WILDLY different each album. Thanks and enjoy!

I’m also new to the band. But this new album, Time Voyager, is absolutely brilliant. Just blew me away. The vibrant mix of styles and influences is fantastic. Every song is great, from beginning to end (but my favorite is Summer Set You Free, sensational). Without question, for me at least, the best album of the year so far. Great job, guys, a monumental achievement.

The Best Progressive Rock Band the last 15 years! Luca Zabbini is a Genius and Eric is an Amazing drummer! And they are young

Great band - played Rosfest in 2018.

Great music and potty humor…

Bent Knee are up there as one of my all time favourite bands. So glad to see yout check them out :)

I can't believe that, at your age, you missed the "BOOOYYYY!!!" reference!

Understand on the first listen it's so tough to pick up on everything... but with XTC, the lyrics are almost always VITAL to how brilliant the song is. This song took a while to catch on with me... now it's one of my favorites. Andy Partridge is an EXCEPTIONAL lyricist. Well-deserving a second listen. Cheers!

Hey new to your page, must say the Mr.Bungle reactions is what got me here, can I make a request? (Sleep Token - ascensionism)

Loooooove Oingo Boingo!!!!!

Mr.Bungle is amazing, every single album.. check out Peeping Tom, Fantomas, Tomahawk.. I mean mike Patton is a musical genius

Jazz? yeah... perhaps check out Tin Hat Trio. Same violinist.

Is this the shirt you mean?

This is best seen and heard in the rotten shed

I think the rush comparison is from the Rickenbacker bass which he traditionally uses and that high vocal

This song is too short! It was already severely edited. Much like some people want to hear the 17+ minute version of the Beatles' "Dig It", I want to hear the full version of this song! How much worse can it be?

I wonder what the meaning of the song and video is 🤔, end of times? NWO? Lizard people?

Bent Knee is just awesome! They're going on tour later this year! Go see them live. They're even better live.

It's all polymeters in standard 4/4 signature. Once your brain begins to hear the elusive 4/4 pulse, the groove suddenly sounds like it weighs 10 tons.

That’s the exact reaction he was looking for.

Check out the later live version of this one... flows a bit more. A touch less busy. Fiery Gun Hand!! Give that a go. I sang a few tunes live with a great cover band called Jibber & Twitch and memorizing the lyrics and hitting the marks was a hellava challenge. ;)

Also, Roger's 'Amused To Death' is a masterpiece. Head & shoulders above all his other releases.

You should give the 'On An Island' record a listen. You may find some tracks very enjoyable.

Oh he's been a busy lad. But a lot of his music was merely internal, and with family since his last solo album. Yes, this new one hits the spot, and in fact another track dropped today which features his daughter Romany, who is a spitting image of a young David, and seems to have inherited some of that brilliance as well. Watch these two, then watch the explainer for the new track: ruclips.net/video/dGdEe8yp2TI/видео.html ( David Gilmour with Romany Gilmour - Yes, I Have Ghosts (Von Trapped Series) ) ruclips.net/video/T_gQ_D5yhAE/видео.html ( David Gilmour and Romany Gilmour - Kokineli ) Can you imagine having David as your dad and music teacher? Then watch him beaming with pride as she knocks out an incredible vocal in essentially one take: ruclips.net/video/hCQcKUtg9kc/видео.html ( David Gilmour - Between Two Points (Explainer) )

My old roommate hated this album, he eventually hid it on me took me months to find it. You either love them or hate them. I think if people hate them their just musically ignorant. This it a top 10 all time record imo.

Im glad I saw them 3 times, they are one of the greatest bands ever, first time I heard them I hated it, but then my mind woke up to greatness on the level with The Beatles

And to really blow your mind, he also sings opera so there’s that too🙃

I love Cardiacs, the Archive collection was my introduction to the band and I quickly fell in love with this song. I learned to play it on drums and played along nearly every day for a year straight. Tim's music is a continuous inspiration to me.

My favorite band. Me Train Running Low On Soul Coal, is the perfect XTC song for you. Includes a noisy guitar sólo.

This Album change all my music life..... Since then incredible fan of Mike Patton and all his Projects. From Fantomas, Peeping and Mondo Cane to mention a few. this Sunday 16.June .2024 i will See Mr. Bunge live again......

Humilitive by meshuggah next, please

This track is undoubtedly long for what it is, but that reinforces its hypnotic aspect, so in the end it serves its purpose. The hi-hat was probably deliberately under-mixed because remember that in the very early 80s it was popular in post-punk and new wave, especially in the UK, to favour martial drums and toms over cymbals, especially since Peter Gabriel had released his third album in 1980 in which he expressly asked that cymbals be banned during recording sessions. This attitude was adopted at the time by bands such as Siouxsie and the Banshees, The Psychedelic Furs, Public Image Ltd, Killing Joke.... Just as you'd be hard-pressed to find guitar or keyboard solos with XTC - not really their style! 😉

i dunno.. expecting deeper lyrics out of squeeze me macaroni is like expecting gospel from looney tunes :D

Fun fact about the cardiacs fan base, they managed to throw Rick Beato into a rage trying to get him to listen to them lol. Apparently he threw a fit and asked people to please stop contacting him about them lol. Which I think is goddamn hilarious.

It should be worth noting that while Cardiacs got most of its audience from the Prog (and to some extent punk scenes), they always rejected both labels, with Tim prefering "psychedelic pop". End of the day really the only genre they belong to is their own one.

another interesting fact to their lyrics: as patton said that most of the things he sings about are mostly a joke to confuse people and see their stupid faces when he comes up with lyrics like these, he said that to him lyrics are just a way to make the music around them sound more interesting and on point. like they´re just a way to put the instruments and the picture that they create with the whole song to put on the front. thats so unusual when u think of it, that most composers and songwriters create lyrics with deep meaning to give this whole song an forced vibe, but just choosing words just to make the whole arrangement sound more interesting and for certain words to fit an specific melody or signature shift and make them more present with that is just so overwhelming to think of. sorry if that´s hard to read or even sound ridiculous, i´m baked
