Born @ the beginning of Gen X, I was always the oddball Black chick that listened and enjoyed something in EVERY MUSIC GENRE you could/can think of. Music is the water of life !!!
I'm loving it too! It's great to see someone discover stuff and enjoying exploring it. Especially when as a young guy I obsessed over this album for years... its a masterpiece. So its great seeing how he's loving it too.... even though it's not easy listening by any means!!
@@edybocman76 Well pardon me ol CHAP......... one must forgive my gluttonous zealotry of words and emojiness but just the mere THOUGHT of Mr Bungle and Primus at the same time kinda makes me do that shit ..........a data input overload short circuit kinda thing that happens to us hardcore fans who grew up listening to such musical badassery !! A side affect of grandiose musical genius and perfectionism👌😉😁✌ AND PRIMUS STILL FOOKIN SUCKS!!!
Jamal, if you like Patton's rendition of "Easy", you should check out his other project, Mondo Cane, a collection of 1950s-60s smooth Italian pop songs with full orchestra. I recommend the concert recorded live at the Holland Festiival in Amsterdam 2008 and some of the more upbeat songs: "Deep deep down", "Urlo Negro", "20Km Al Giorno" and "Yeeeeh!"
And to make it easier. ruclips.net/video/YRjKlZiGHQI/видео.html The audience was not aware of what an amazing treat they were in for. Simply amazing show. "Beautiful" doesn't even do it justice....
Saw them in sf at the hardly strictly bluegrass festival. Brilliant. I have seen many of his projects. Still trying to figure one out. They opened for Built to Spill at Bottom of the hill late 90s or early 2000s. It was him with a ton of vocal effects, a drum machine, and a guy on noise slide guitar.
Patton is so diverse, he has worked with hip hop artists, done entire concerts in italian 50s pop song style, voiced zombies and creatures in movies and shows, did the entire sound track to crank (1 or 2 cant remember) the dude is amazing
After listening to this album for damn near 30 years, it's great to see your reactions to the music that's been stuck in my head that entire time. Once it's in there, you can try to get it out, but you'll never succeed. Just sit back and let it take over your entire being. And be sure to check out the rest of the album and the rest of their catalog. You Will Not Be Disappointed
Patton's the King! You can see by my profile picture, i'm a fan 😁. I suggest Mr Bungle "Retrovertigo" and "Pink Cigarrete" Those 2 are more "normal" songs from Mr Bungle if you can call that to any Bungle song lol.
Agreed. "California" is one of my all-time top albums. The other Mr. Bungle stuff is more of a novelty. Sort of a joke. But _California?!?!_ That record haunts me.
Trevor Dunn is an underrated God-Tier Bassist!! Dead Goon is the song where he REALLY goes off on some next level(for its time) Bass riffs!! Aldo, Dead Good would be a great next video!!! It's SUPER dark.
@@johnwhite8847 It's one of mine too. Why can't Bungle stop Bungling around and write record release another 3 Bungle albums? That's not a big ask. Now with Ipecac it would be perfect
@@jmpsthrufyre it's sad that the closest we've had to a Bungle album in the past 20 years is arguably Oddfellows by Tomahawk, which of course is not nearly weird enough.
@@johnwhite8847 That or some of Delerium and Suspended. I still have hope. California will NOT be the last. If it is it is and what an is to end with. But I think there's at least one more offering left.
I love watching your videos. But never did I think I’d hear you critique a friend! My friend was the original drummer for Mr. Bungle. They all went my high school. Great band!
He has so many good bands. Peeping Tom, Tomahawk, Fantomas, General Patton vs The X-Ecutioners, Bungle, FNM, Lovage, Mondo Cane, I'm probably forgetting a few but all i can really say it's, damn.
After all the GEMS you've uncovered, I still never imagined you landing on Mr. Bungle! You have THE most open mind musically, Congrats on your findings. Next is "Goon" from Mr. Bungle
Hell yeah! Carrying Stress in the Jaw, The Desert Search for the Techno Allah, Retrovertigo, Air Conditioned Nightmare, Ars Moriendi, Goodbye Sober Day.... All are great songs!
That album is a pure masterpiece! If you REALLY want to appreciate it, listen to it while driving on long, desolate, tumbleweed-filled roads in the Southwest. We did that once and stopped at a really creepy gas station in the middle of nowhere Arizona and pumped gas to "Goodbye Sober Day". There were strange characters hanging around the gas station looking like someone dragged them through dry sagebrush and hung them out on barbwire to tan their skin. It was a moment I will never forget.
I will never forget my first time listening to My Ass Is On Fire, which was my introduction to the band. I couldn't stop laughing the whole way through.. I thought it was some of the most craziest/brilliant music I have ever heard! You can never forget something that.. Mike Patton is a genius!
You asked “Is he in hell?”, the answer is yes - at least mentally and emotionally imprisoned. Think of a clown. Always wears a smiley face and has to be happy and outgoing. But what if you’re having a bad day? What if some kid just stuffed his ice cream in your pocket? You have to bite it back and choke on it. The frustration and inner turmoil must be epic. Add to that, this guy is having a mid-life crisis “Impotence, ...,clumps of hair in the sink”. The entire album is thematic and as interesting as each track is, you really can’t listen to them out of context of the entire album. I don’t want to spoil anything in case you decide to do more reaction videos, but LISTEN TO THE ENTIRE ALBUM! Mike Patton is a fantastic vocalist and he is surrounded by a group of excellent musicians who all share the same goal in creating something completely original.
“What the hell just happened?” The product of genius & insanity. A friend turned me on to this album in 1992. When he was talking about this band, he said,”It’s Mike Patton’s side project, way different from Faith No More. Think speed metal with a horn section!” I said, “Ok definitely checking this out!” Listening to this album with just the instruments alone along with the samples sprinkled in is just well put together insanity, and then Mike Patton’s vocals over that, only Patton could really have the multiple personalities vocal style that could fit the different facets of this band musically. Other than that, it’s fucking crazy, which is awesome!
HAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! The look on your face when he started singing redundant! holyshit! I'm in tears over here. You need to do the rest of the album on video too
So glad you've finally got to the Bungle... Hope to see some reactions to the recommendations from the California album. Completely different aesthetic.
One of the most amazing rock albums made. So happy you're checking it out! If you listen to the entire album it is simply exhausting. Mike Patton's voice work is phenomenal
That one and "Flashback" from the same show (it was on an Australian tv show, iirc). That version of "Flashback" is one of those songs/performances I desperately wish I'd written/performed.
Saw them in San Francisco last Saturday they did the raging wrath of the Easter Bunny cover to cover. It was fucking Awesome! Face melting metal for an hour and a half. In the middle of the show they play summer breeze just the way you hear it in your head then back to metal!
I got the rare chance to see Mr. Bungle live and was amazed. I figured this was a studio band that couldn't pull this off live, and was wildly surprised and impressed by the the whole band.
This is fun with Acid music. Mike Patton's voice has so much more range than these 2 songs show. I can't wait to see them on Monday at Brooklyn Steel 🤘🏽
@@SpaceCattttt They just recently reformed for a short tour, I've heard they have Scott Ian from Anthrax playing and the great Dave Lombardo of Slayer and Fantomas fame on drums, but Patton, Dunn and Spruance are playing under the name. Their first show on the tour sounds like a brilliant troll, everyone went to hear their...er...hits I guess, as much as Bungle has "hits", but they played the entirety of The Raging Wrath of the Easter Bunny, one of their early demos, and some off kilter covers. My great regret is that they're playing a handful of shows, none of which are anywhere in Canada where I live...I would kill to see this band live...
@@andrewhussey4538 According to Wikipedia, they're only playing 3 shows? I don't know, but a tour would be better!! Lots of people get pissed off when they pay to go and see a show, and the HITS aren't played. But come on! If you want to hear the hits, then FNM will play them for you. If you want to see Patton and Co, then the point is that you never know what you're going to get. Like fucking chocolate, Forrest! I went to see Fantomas and people were booing because......it was too experimental and not catchy enough. Same thing when I saw Blur! They refused to play any of their singles that night, and the pitchforks soon came out in force! And I was like, the fuck, you have the bloody hits on the albums. Here's an opportunity to hear something new and unique to this night, and you choose to get pissed off about it? Idiots!
@@SpaceCattttt Yeah, the same happened with Dream Theater ages back, they had a gig somewhere and used (if memory serves) the anniversary or something to play Metallica...I think it was the entirety of Master of Puppets because it was such a foundational album for the members of the band and all sorts of people got really upset. Most were cool with it, hearing virtuoso level musicians playing stuff that moved them when they were young as a point of respect to the band they loved and people were upset because "I paid to see a dream theater show, not a cover band". Really don't get the Fantomas thing...what the hell are you even GOING to a Fantomas show if you are bothered by experimental music? That's pretty much their entire schtick, if someone wants to hear catchy songs with Patton go see a FNM or Peeping Tom show, but if you know the band enough to buy tickets and then get upset when they play like Fantomas, what the hell...that's like paying to go see a BB King show and then getting pissed off because it's all blues music, that's what he did. I'd absolutely kill to see Fantomas, I've been playing guitar for about 25 years and I can't describe how difficult it would be playing a whole set of songs with that level of variation...they're even more off the wall in some ways than Bungle, flipping styles mid-song on a dime multiple times over, keeping all that straight in your head is just amazing, one person losing their place for a moment would throw the whole thing off, you'd need to know your songs and scales inside out and backwards and just be incredibly well rehearsed or it would be a nightmare. I'm hoping this mini-tour is in anticipation of something longer, I was a bit young when Bungle was around, there was nothing like what we have today where I can follow a band and be notified right away when a show came around, you just would stumble across something in Kerang magazine or on a flyer announcing a show if you were lucky, or by word of mouth and then pray you could get your parents to pay for a ticket, that it wasn't sold out and then get to the show so I just never had the luck...but if they decide to do a full tour then I am so fucking on that when they come here
I have never heard of this band, I have never heard this song. I would not have listened to the whole thing by myself. Would have given up too early. But thanks to this video I listened to the whole song. I actually like this song. It intentionally abrasive. It changes key and rhythm and uses rests like notes. Thanks for this video.
@@jeffsutter5982 You will definitely appreciate it if you enjoy Primus. Mr Bungle self titled is a musical maze of odd meters, genre splicing and circus inspired metal madness. So genius.
I love your reactions to some of the more avant garde music. A lot of people cant even handle the intro to some of these songs, but you endure it and find an entertaining reaction out of it. Keep doing more wierd shit! love it!
JAMAL, , check out another Patton band PEEPING TOM "We're Not Alone" from thrRollins Show. See him work his version of a pop band. Also PEEPING TOM doing "Desperate Situation" from Marvin Gaye live in Prague. You will Love It!!
MIke Patton is da man! He's the singer for another band that you did a reaction video on Faith No More). He has the widest vocal range of any rock / pop singer (six octaves)! He's just an incredibly talented wild man with a broad range of musical styles. Also, he's a SF dude.
I never thought about their music being dark, it always made me laugh. You can tell by the groove of the album that they were having a blast, the time of their lives.
LOVE IS A FIST! One of there BEST songs. IMO Great reaction! Interesting and great to see people Open mindedly reacting to Mr. bungle I was raised on them as a kid first hearing them when I was in high school in the early 90s Mike Patton and Mr. bungle are definitely one of a kind!
Your reaction is exactly what is to be expected. lol This particular album is a crazy mix of jazz, metal, rap, video game and pinball sound effects, human noises, movie clips, porno lines and sounds ("Girls of Porn" will blow your mind) and more. The album was inspired by a comic book called "Cotton Candy Autopsy" (go look up that bit of insanity some time)...and the whole album is intended to have a circus vibe. It is essentially a way for the artists to just experiment and try really out there musical ideas. You have an incredibly open mind when it comes to music, and that is the perfect place to be at when listening to Bungle. An open mind and a sense of humor...and let them take you on a crazy musical journey.
other good ditties: Chemical marriage, Sweet charity, Desert search, Carry stress in the jaw, The air-conditioned nightmare, Pink cigarette. Their second album is the most creative thing I've ever heard
@@ryanlarocque2571 and scream "... And just let the ji-sm flyy!" Then look up embarrassed as I hear myself echoing through the aisles of the (now quiet) grocery store 😬😂
Same. In fact, first time I ever heard Bungle was at a live show when they were touring this album. All I knew about them before that was that Mike Patton wore a Mr. Bungle t-shirt in FNM's "Epic" video and I read somewhere that Bungle was his band in high school. I had no idea what to expect and that show blew my mind WIDE open. Since then, I've seen them (and Faith, Fantomas, etc) a bunch of times and have been lucky enough to chat briefly with Mike on a couple of occasions after shows. I'm sure I came off as an idiot and asked some dumb questions but he was super cool. Favorite musician of all time, hands down.
OMG I cant believe you did this song! Wow thanks! "Dead Goon" is another good one or "Girls of Porn" but all their transitions dont make much sense without the other songs around them. Your reaction was hilarious. Its like getting hit with a musical truck
Hespet And that look at 2:03? Price less! I will never get tired of brothers reacting to the music of my youth, Not something I could have ever forseen. Thank you, You and you tube Lol and I never noticed that that freaky freaky mixing bit sounds like he's saying Hold On! Wtf?
What you listened to was a band way ahead of thier time, with the freedom to blaze thier own trail...this band gave birth to bands like limp bizkit, korn, slipknot, lincoln park and more. Very powerful, but smart enough to stay under the cookie-cutter radar of everything that followed because it was never about being mainstream, but about undermining the BS pop culture corporate garbage everyone is used to. And more! Check out the faith no more cover songs video!
I'm 42, and I've had to buy several copies of this album because I kept wearing them out. It's beyond bizarre to see Mr. Bungle getting this attention all of a sudden. You're not the only one reacting to this lately. Weird wild stuff.
As a good listener of their works, I have to answer this : M. Bungle is an experimental groupe of music, who tried in their works to marry opposite kind of music all together. Begin to discover their universe by listening the first album is hard ; it's a hard one, a strange mix of circus, metal and rapcore, with numerous breaks inside that can lost the most endurant listener. I think you should try to listen the last one, California, more easy to apprehend, and debut with songs like "Sweet Charity" for the smoothy waves, or "Goodbye Sober Day". :) Good listening !
Mr. Bungle were extremely inspired by an underground British band called Cardiacs. (Not The Cardiacs just Cardiacs). They were described as their own style of music called Pronk meaning progressive punk (a term they rejected.) but they were easily this insane and weird if not even far weirder. You can’t possibly imagine unless you’ve heard a bunch of their music. Mike Patton was a big fan. I adore Cardiacs.
@@nathanberner7725 I wrote the lyrics out on notebook paper so I could sing along and memorize them. I was 14 yrs old when this came out. My mom found them in my desk drawer, got pissed and confiscated all my cassettes for a week.
I saw a Top Ten list of lead singers who can "sing you to sleep and scare you to death" and Mike Patton was definitely on that list. A truly underrated voice.
Here are some Bungle tracks you should check out: The Air Conditioned Nightmare off of California, Squeeze Me Macaroni off of their self titled, and Desert Search For Techno Allah off of Disco Volante.
Also you check out his other projects like Fantomas and Peeping Tom, They have some awesome original songs +cape fear/across 110th st. covers. . Absolutely Top Notch!!

Right! The bass on that song.
SIX! SIX! SIX!
He has to be clean I doubt this would pass through.
Just to be clear; I see your videos, I hit like, then I watch. You're the real deal. 👊
Bay Area Finest. Mr Bungle, & Faith No More.
@DOnkeyshyt I got you! Just trying to point out to this Bay Area guy that the music is coming from the Nor Cal backyard.
As far as the finest Bay Area bands go, I'd put Journey and Steve Miller Band ahead of Mr. Bungle
@@fa2112 well, Bungle wasn't a Bay area band, so...
Super excited to hear you react to more Mr.Bungle and Primus, a couple of my favorite bands ever. You definitely got a subscribe from me.
This is Mike Patton: The Teenage Years. His original band(pre- FNM).
This song was written in 90 & recorded in 91
The raging wrath of the Easter Bunny- that is the teenage mike patton
You brought back good memories of a really good friend of mine from my teenage years with this song. Thanks for posting bro. Keep up the good work!
Most creative minds of the 90's, without a doubt.
No doubt mate!
And then primus
@@unowhavethebiggay1430 Type o Negative
Out of every reaction.... This one kills me the most. Thank you and I hope for many more.
lol oh my god man, i was bawlin' when you were listening to the end hahaha
I got hooked on Mr Bungle back in like 2014 and still love them so much, their music for some reason helps my adhd.
This is fun with Acid music. Mike Patton's voice has so much more range than these 2 songs show. I can't wait to see them on Monday at Brooklyn Steel 🤘🏽
Bungle are still performing?
@@SpaceCattttt They just recently reformed for a short tour, I've heard they have Scott Ian from Anthrax playing and the great Dave Lombardo of Slayer and Fantomas fame on drums, but Patton, Dunn and Spruance are playing under the name. Their first show on the tour sounds like a brilliant troll, everyone went to hear their...er...hits I guess, as much as Bungle has "hits", but they played the entirety of The Raging Wrath of the Easter Bunny, one of their early demos, and some off kilter covers. My great regret is that they're playing a handful of shows, none of which are anywhere in Canada where I live...I would kill to see this band live...
@@andrewhussey4538 According to Wikipedia, they're only playing 3 shows?
I don't know, but a tour would be better!!
Lots of people get pissed off when they pay to go and see a show, and the HITS aren't played. But come on! If you want to hear the hits, then FNM will play them for you.
If you want to see Patton and Co, then the point is that you never know what you're going to get. Like fucking chocolate, Forrest!
I went to see Fantomas and people were booing because......it was too experimental and not catchy enough.
Same thing when I saw Blur! They refused to play any of their singles that night, and the pitchforks soon came out in force!
And I was like, the fuck, you have the bloody hits on the albums. Here's an opportunity to hear something new and unique to this night, and you choose to get pissed off about it? Idiots!
@@SpaceCattttt Yeah, the same happened with Dream Theater ages back, they had a gig somewhere and used (if memory serves) the anniversary or something to play Metallica...I think it was the entirety of Master of Puppets because it was such a foundational album for the members of the band and all sorts of people got really upset. Most were cool with it, hearing virtuoso level musicians playing stuff that moved them when they were young as a point of respect to the band they loved and people were upset because "I paid to see a dream theater show, not a cover band".
Really don't get the Fantomas thing...what the hell are you even GOING to a Fantomas show if you are bothered by experimental music? That's pretty much their entire schtick, if someone wants to hear catchy songs with Patton go see a FNM or Peeping Tom show, but if you know the band enough to buy tickets and then get upset when they play like Fantomas, what the hell...that's like paying to go see a BB King show and then getting pissed off because it's all blues music, that's what he did. I'd absolutely kill to see Fantomas, I've been playing guitar for about 25 years and I can't describe how difficult it would be playing a whole set of songs with that level of variation...they're even more off the wall in some ways than Bungle, flipping styles mid-song on a dime multiple times over, keeping all that straight in your head is just amazing, one person losing their place for a moment would throw the whole thing off, you'd need to know your songs and scales inside out and backwards and just be incredibly well rehearsed or it would be a nightmare.
I'm hoping this mini-tour is in anticipation of something longer, I was a bit young when Bungle was around, there was nothing like what we have today where I can follow a band and be notified right away when a show came around, you just would stumble across something in Kerang magazine or on a flyer announcing a show if you were lucky, or by word of mouth and then pray you could get your parents to pay for a ticket, that it wasn't sold out and then get to the show so I just never had the luck...but if they decide to do a full tour then I am so fucking on that when they come here
I saw them at the Fonda Theatre on Friday, and they were frickin amazing. Enjoy the show
I have never heard of this band, I have never heard this song. I would not have listened to the whole thing by myself. Would have given up too early. But thanks to this video I listened to the whole song. I actually like this song. It intentionally abrasive. It changes key and rhythm and uses rests like notes. Thanks for this video.
jeff sutter give the whole album a try... it’s an unbearable masterpiece.
@@brianbown7332 will do. Being a Primus fan I appreciate abrasive songs
@@jeffsutter5982 You will definitely appreciate it if you enjoy Primus. Mr Bungle self titled is a musical maze of odd meters, genre splicing and circus inspired metal madness. So genius.
Carry Stress In The Jaw
Tiwaz THIS PLEASE
Yes!
YES! Definitely. I LOVE "Carry Stress in the Jaw." Talk about talented musicians.
Probably my favorite song of all time...
I love your reactions to some of the more avant garde music. A lot of people cant even handle the intro to some of these songs, but you endure it and find an entertaining reaction out of it. Keep doing more wierd shit! love it!
JAMAL, , check out another Patton band PEEPING TOM "We're Not Alone" from thrRollins Show. See him work his version of a pop band. Also PEEPING TOM doing "Desperate Situation" from Marvin Gaye live in Prague. You will Love It!!
I love that album. Although i still can't figure out the lyrics at the end of How U Feelin.
This! Now I'm gonna revisit some PT myself. Great project.
Across 110th St. Ain't bad neither
In a similar vein is Mike Patton and Fantomas covering Al Green's "Simply Beautiful."
We're Not Alone is my favorite Peeping Tom song!
MIke Patton is da man! He's the singer for another band that you did a reaction video on Faith No More). He has the widest vocal range of any rock / pop singer (six octaves)! He's just an incredibly talented wild man with a broad range of musical styles. Also, he's a SF dude.
I never thought about their music being dark, it always made me laugh. You can tell by the groove of the album that they were having a blast, the time of their lives.
LOVE IS A FIST! One of there BEST songs. IMO
Great reaction! Interesting and great to see people Open mindedly reacting to Mr. bungle I was raised on them as a kid first hearing them when I was in high school in the early 90s Mike Patton and Mr. bungle are definitely one of a kind!
The Song grew on me wasnt a fan at first. Cant believe he also sang easy like Sunday Morning.
"Totem" and Peeping Tom's version of "Across 110th Street" also came out of the same human being, somehow.
Funny stuff, man. Glad you got to experience some Bungle!
Your reaction is exactly what is to be expected. lol
This particular album is a crazy mix of jazz, metal, rap, video game and pinball sound effects, human noises, movie clips, porno lines and sounds ("Girls of Porn" will blow your mind) and more.
The album was inspired by a comic book called "Cotton Candy Autopsy" (go look up that bit of insanity some time)...and the whole album is intended to have a circus vibe.
It is essentially a way for the artists to just experiment and try really out there musical ideas. You have an incredibly open mind when it comes to music, and that is the perfect place to be at when listening to Bungle. An open mind and a sense of humor...and let them take you on a crazy musical journey.
Just want to say, your videos bring me a lot of joy! Thanks
I love you're reactions to mr bungle, a band that takes time to appreciate. Do "Squeeze me macaroni" and "Girls of porn". You won't regret it
other good ditties: Chemical marriage, Sweet charity, Desert search, Carry stress in the jaw, The air-conditioned nightmare, Pink cigarette. Their second album is the most creative thing I've ever heard
I don’t think reactions to those could stay up on RUclips.
My favorite thing about Mr Bungle is getting their songs stuck in my head and catching myself singing them in public
LMAO I was singing this song at work the other day
“My hand is tired but my dick is sore, but the girls of porn want more...”
Sweet singing.
@@ryanlarocque2571 and scream "... And just let the ji-sm flyy!" Then look up embarrassed as I hear myself echoing through the aisles of the (now quiet) grocery store 😬😂
yup, i was the weird kid in early 90's jammin this.
Feral SpecOps me too dude... best of times.
I was the weird kid jamming to it in the early 2000s.
Me too.
Same. In fact, first time I ever heard Bungle was at a live show when they were touring this album. All I knew about them before that was that Mike Patton wore a Mr. Bungle t-shirt in FNM's "Epic" video and I read somewhere that Bungle was his band in high school. I had no idea what to expect and that show blew my mind WIDE open. Since then, I've seen them (and Faith, Fantomas, etc) a bunch of times and have been lucky enough to chat briefly with Mike on a couple of occasions after shows. I'm sure I came off as an idiot and asked some dumb questions but he was super cool. Favorite musician of all time, hands down.
I was the weird adult black male bumping this in 2010
Love the reaction man. Mr Bungle one of my besties of all time.
Just to put you at ease, we all looked like this the first time we heard Mr. Bungle Lol
So good! Been listening to them since 91’.
OMG I cant believe you did this song! Wow thanks! "Dead Goon" is another good one or "Girls of Porn" but all their transitions dont make much sense without the other songs around them. Your reaction was hilarious. Its like getting hit with a musical truck
Hespet
And that look at 2:03?
Price less! I will never get tired of brothers reacting to the music of my youth,
Not something I could have ever forseen. Thank you, You and you tube
Lol and I never noticed that that freaky freaky mixing bit sounds like he's saying Hold On! Wtf?
Slowly Growing Deaf was always my favorite.
Yes! Love watching someone's mind getting blown by Bungle for the first time lol
The mathematical funk of my younger days. They were so fucking talented
This is the reason that your reaction channel is far and away the best out there!!!
What you listened to was a band way ahead of thier time, with the freedom to blaze thier own trail...this band gave birth to bands like limp bizkit, korn, slipknot, lincoln park and more. Very powerful, but smart enough to stay under the cookie-cutter radar of everything that followed because it was never about being mainstream, but about undermining the BS pop culture corporate garbage everyone is used to. And more! Check out the faith no more cover songs video!
Yuck. Those bands suck
I thought Korn took more from Primus
3:35 “HOLD ON! HOLD ON! Y’all can’t just be doing that! Just mixin’ and shit!” 😂
I'm 42, and I've had to buy several copies of this album because I kept wearing them out. It's beyond bizarre to see Mr. Bungle getting this attention all of a sudden. You're not the only one reacting to this lately. Weird wild stuff.
As a good listener of their works, I have to answer this : M. Bungle is an experimental groupe of music, who tried in their works to marry opposite kind of music all together. Begin to discover their universe by listening the first album is hard ; it's a hard one, a strange mix of circus, metal and rapcore, with numerous breaks inside that can lost the most endurant listener.
I think you should try to listen the last one, California, more easy to apprehend, and debut with songs like "Sweet Charity" for the smoothy waves, or "Goodbye Sober Day". :)
Good listening !
Btw Bungle are doing three reunion shows currently in the States.
They added more
Wife and I saw them at Brooklyn Steel on the 10th. Front row, it was great.
Mr. Bungle were extremely inspired by an underground British band called Cardiacs. (Not The Cardiacs just Cardiacs). They were described as their own style of music called Pronk meaning progressive punk (a term they rejected.) but they were easily this insane and weird if not even far weirder. You can’t possibly imagine unless you’ve heard a bunch of their music. Mike Patton was a big fan. I adore Cardiacs.
You should check out the song Squeeze Me Macaroni
"Knick knack paddywhack...a give your dog a bone, baby!"
I got in trouble bcuz of the lyrics to that song
@@vulgarprophet2689 lmfao explain please
@@nathanberner7725 I wrote the lyrics out on notebook paper so I could sing along and memorize them. I was 14 yrs old when this came out. My mom found them in my desk drawer, got pissed and confiscated all my cassettes for a week.
I saw a Top Ten list of lead singers who can "sing you to sleep and scare you to death" and Mike Patton was definitely on that list. A truly underrated voice.
Here are some Bungle tracks you should check out: The Air Conditioned Nightmare off of California, Squeeze Me Macaroni off of their self titled, and Desert Search For Techno Allah off of Disco Volante.
I love how you accept everything! You are my favorite youtube personally.
Also you check out his other projects like Fantomas and Peeping Tom, They have some awesome original songs +cape fear/across 110th st. covers. .
Absolutely Top Notch!!
Lovage
Peeping Tom is fucking classic record. Seriously I think that one will still sound fire 10 years from now.
Tomahawk, Loveage.....
The first 4 songs off of "Peeping Tom" are genius.
Tomahawk
Maybe my favorite reaction of yours! Mr. Bungle is something else, and you just got a christening...lol. You are entertaining bro!
Stop playin and listen to Evidence and the gentle art of making enemies by Faith no More. Another aspect of his his versatility you need to experience
They have 3 major albums and all 3 of them are completely different from each other. Like Primus, Mr. Bungle really grows on you.
