Since you gave it four, what's your favorite track? Which rhythmic section did you enjoy the most? And what's the track with the most groove? What makes you say "cool!" besides the non-sense? And what do you find beautiful in the "non-sense"? And keep in mind that the more niche the record is, the harder it is to find, and the harder you search, the higher your expectations become, and the higher your expectations, the longer the waiting time seems... then the CD arrives, and you're over the moon... you put it in... and it's not a CD. How do you feel about that? I feel bad, but if there's something good to hear, show it to me and maybe I’ll change my mind. Tell me, what's good in here, come on :D

NOW you know what to expect from Patton thanks to crap like this, but back then nobody knew at all. And I repeat, this record makes no sense, it’s terrible, it’s just a joke... it deserves a free listen taken as a "cabaret gag," but let’s not pass this off as a proper album because it’s really a false snobbery. I don’t believe that you genuinely enjoy this jumble of sounds and vocalizations; nobody enjoys it willingly. If this record were made by some random nobody, you’d say "what the hell is this??", but since it’s Patton & Zorn then everyone’s all in a frenzy... bah, it’s crap and it’ll remain crap in my opinion. A beautiful and good joke, I’ll give it two stars just for the food concept, but come on... the music is elsewhere.

I knew you hadn’t bought it; otherwise, you would have voted 2. I don’t agree with the idea of "you know what you’re buying," since this album is from '97. I bought it in '97, and back then, Patton wasn’t the Patton we know today. Zorn was the Zorn we know today, which means everything and nothing, and Ribot was the Ribot we know today, meaning everyone and no one. There were no Fantômas yet, California hadn’t come out, and none of Patton’s pure delirium (NB: Patton NOT Zorn) had been released aside from the absolute nonsense (read: CRAP) Adult Themes for Voice in '96, exactly one year before. When this thing came out, it was thought that Patton wanted to “make amends” for that hideous crap of ATFV with this album by joining the compositional genius of Zorn & Ribot; instead, they offered up madness without head or tail. Honestly, I didn’t expect two pieces of crap like this one after another, and maybe the disgust this album causes me has also increased precisely because it’s the second piece of garbage in a row. Now, in 2005, with Patton having released another 20 albums, you see this as “one of many things,” but back then it wasn’t one of many; it was just “the second release of Patton,” and it sucked just like the first one... which made you say (in '97) that Patton alone was just a fool. Then I completely changed my mind, but honestly, it’s not very professional for Mike to have rehearsed for Fantômas on records for sale like this one.

I'm telling you for the third time that it's not a song by Fantomas, Melt Banana is a band, they did a tour with Fantomas last year. A special single with two songs, one by Fantomas and one by Melt Banana, is set to be released in a week or two, probably without titles, just with the name of the band. You downloaded this song called Melt Banana from the unreleased single "Fantomas - Melt Banana." How can you be sure of something you downloaded, idiot? "I'm more than sure" ... but more than sure of what? The name of the file? Well, now I’ll rename an Oasis file to Patton + Hendrix, you'll download it and then come tell me you're more than sure you have a piece of Patton with Hendrix? Go back to studying, the middle school diploma exam is tough, you know...

Votes turned upside down, Disco Paccioccio the same.

This resonated with me, disco-paccioccio 98. Great sound, beautiful chick, for being a television record, a real tip of the hat.

This... is... ne-ce-ssa-ry.

Thank you Odradek, I see we have similar tastes when it comes to women. :)

To me, it was pretty crap, a nice joke. Sure, it’s funnier than Adult Theme, which is a joke that doesn’t make you laugh; this one at least brings a smile. Maybe, just maybe, if you take it as an album from someone (Patton) who doesn’t know how to play, you might say “well, it’s not that bad,” but when you think about the fact that there are people like Zorn and Ribot involved, you think “no way... this is really crap.” Then you think “but of course it’s Patton, not Zorn,” then you rethink “yeah, but damn, there’s Zorn,” until you reach the point of “oh, they’re just joking!”... and if you didn’t buy it, you laugh; when you have bought it, you don’t laugh, but you give it a 2 (being generous). I recommend it to those who have money to throw away.

Yes, seven Ibanez strings.
