Great reaction. One of my personal favorite Bungle tracks as well. One of the great things about Mr. Bungle's erratic yet purposeful compositions is that once you're familiar enough with the piece that you can keep up with the transitions and signature changes, it only makes the song even more enjoyable to listen to and tap your fingers to. So it literally just gets better the more you listen to it.
That was a great reaction, really fun to watch you enjoying it!!! This song is a grower so really glad you could hear the song on first listen for what it is 😎 Please react to 'Desert Search For Techno Allah next' can't wait for that one 🤓
Love your reactions to Mr Bungle! You should definitely check out Goodbye Sober Day, that song truely showcases what a vocal genius Mike Patton is! Another suggestion for a different band: how about NoMeansNo? The Mr. Bungle guys were big fans! They were absolutely amazing live. You might try Rags and Bones or Small Parts Isolated and Destroyed or It's Catching Up. Or Now. Or Joyfull Reunion. It's so hard to choose!!!!
Desert Search For Techno Allah is a must. In fact I think you'd love most of this album, why not do an album reaction to Disco Volante, It'll mess you up!! Please check out more of MP with Tomahawk. If you like King Crimson and Genesis, please also check out Camel starting with either Lady Fantasy or Never Let Go, lovely stuff!
You should react to Slowly Growing Deaf by Mr. Bungle, it's like Quote Unqoute but heavier and more dark, I love the self titled album, the bass guitar work really inspires me as a bassist, Trevor Dunn is such a great bassist and he's very underrated.
How do you walk into a room full of band mates and so ok I've got an Idea for a song? Then leave with this on a tape. Oh then play this for a friend or two and watch heads explode. Great review and disection!!
I know i’m quite late lol, but i would love to see you react to their song “The Bends” Its off Disco Volante, it’s one of my favorite songs of all time.
Yeah, this is the song from "California" that I told you about, the mix of metal and actually Romanian gypsy music, that`s the rest what you heard there, traditional Eastern European music, from the Balkans... 🙂Music from the hometown of famous Count Dracula.😉😎I guess this fact partially explains why this music was so attractive to these guys, who are, like, a disguised death-metal band (originally), with the kind of secret, satanic themes that appear from time to time, just to remind you of what you`re dealing with..🙃😉 In Bram Stoker`s novel, Romanian gypsies are presented as servants of Dracula in his homeland, so...🙂This music is cheerful, it has spirit, it shows a kind of joy of life..😉🙃Locals drink to this in their bars, often dance to it and have fun...😎As you heard, there is a slower part (emotional, gentle) and a ridiculously faster part ("partyyyyy...." ! 😄) In those faster parts, the locals usually dance a traditional dance called "kolo"; they join hands to form a huge living circle of people, often outside, when there is a dance or similar social gathering, and they subtly, but vigorously beat a piece of ground with their feet, having fun and moving around, clockwise and/or counter-clockwise..😀I think Mike Patton and Trey Spruance (the guitarist) were listening to CDs of some of those Romanian gypsy artists, modern ones, like Taraful Haiducilor ("Taraf of Haiduks") before recording "California", so that`s a real connection which inspired them to make such a song that describes the movements of some kind of powerful, supernatural, diabolical, larger-than-life being, who cheats death with his will to live ( "He who leaps over the precipice..."😉) and that's where the title comes in (slightly ironic): "Art Moriendi", a medieval pseudo-Latin term meaning "The Art of Dying", derived from a Christian moralistic book of the time with the same title, describing the ways in which good Christians should live in order to deserve a decent death. 😃 I know, it`s hilarious and clownish, like everything Mr. Bungle does. 😁🙃😊 But it`s also great artistic and musical knowledge. 🙂They even mixed this music with parts of techno beat loops (from about 2:30 to 2:48 in your video) imitating some kind of cheap and obnoxiously kitschy hybrid of the two, still inexplicably popular in these parts of the world, often labeled by its commercial, grotesque name "Turbo-Folk"...😫🤢But they made fun of it too...!🤠 🤓🥸🤣Anyway, thanks a lot for this reaction, I hope I didn`t bore you too much with all this information, just thought it would be interesting to share this amazing stuff here with you. 🙃 What next?🙂 Well you can choose something radically different from all three albums, for example: from a 1st - "The Girls of Porn"( 😉😃), a 2nd - "Desert Search For Techno Allah" (I agree with the others on that😉) and a 3rd - "None of Them Knew They were Robots"... and you won`t regret it and make a mistake. 😀 Bye...😎🙂
Mr. Bungle's "California" album was engineered and produced by the band's guitarist, Trey Spruance. His band, Secret Chiefs 3, has retained and refined the blend of tremendous skill and creative variety that Mr. Bungle is appreciated for. Widely instrumental stuff, however - and that's okay. As much as I appreciate Mike Patton's vocals and his willingness to explore the boundaries of his incredible range, the music itself is phenomenal enough without him.
You have a great ear to pick up so much in one listen, especially the nature of the transitions. Platypus is worth a listen by mr bungle. Some of the rhythms are pretty astonishing.
Mr. Bungle makes soundtracks for movies that never existed but sure should have. If you like this one you should check out the OG middle-eastern track of theirs, "Desert search for techno Allah."
Hey Jonathon, greetings from the Netherlands. A little over 3 weeks ago, I recommended a band called Nightwish to you (in the comments of your 'OZZY OSBOURNE - Patient Number 9' video). You said you'd check them out in the near future. Any idea when you'll do a reaction? I'd love to hear your opinion. Take care!
Yes, hello again! I recall the comment and will definitely check them out as soon as I can get to it. Given the current schedule and line up, my best estimate at this point is probably about 2 weeks out; no more than 3 weeks out. Take care and have an excellent day!
Great reaction. One of my personal favorite Bungle tracks as well.

literally all of them, all tracks - they are all amazing. They can do it all live, and well.

Another track that I really enjoyed from that album was Goodbye Sober Day.

You have to listen to the 4 studio albums in order.

If ya love this one, you'll probably also love

Please react to 'pain of salvation. The song "king of loss"

@@JonathonThamesMusic That's good to hear. I'll keep an eye out for your reaction. Enjoy your day!
Everyone has a favourite Mr. Bungle album. Maybe you’ve found yours?
STOP TALKING OVER ALL THE TRANSISTIONS!!! LISTEN!!!
😂😂😂 It's a reaction channel. I think the beardguy has to decide for himself when he wants to react.
Unpopular opinion: this is my 2nd least favorite song from this album.
What is the first one then?
You just havent listened to it enough. Let me guess your 1st, The Holy Filament
