I don't recall having seen this pop up in this community. Give a rundown of your favorite albums. Top slot, top 3, top 5, 10... whatever's easiest to you since I know it can be tough to narrow things down to a specific degree.

It'll be interesting to see where everyone is coming from in this regard. Could create for a good opportunity to discuss albums, find people with similar tastes, argue that a different album from someone's catalog is better, etc.

I'll throw mine down in a separate comment once I get it figured out.

I don't know about the other artists, but why remove Mr Bungle? In my opinion they're metal af!

California isn't! Lol. I mean there's heavy parts of air conditioned night are and goodbye sober day but all in all, it's a pretty bright album.

I see, you're referring to that specific album. It's just that extremely experimental including all kinds of sounds and styles that it seems very difficult to say what genre it is.

Thank you for that small interaction, it lead me to change my last night's plans, getting my headphones out and listen to Mr Bungle and other Mike Patton bands like FNM and Fantomas. Was a great night!

In case you didn't know, there are some badass recordings from earlier days or cut together tapes like this one.

Check out Peeping Tom. That was a fun project, and more recent than the rest afaik.

I actually got to see Patton and Bungle perform My Ass Is On Fire very recently. They e been touring again if you weren't aware!

Thank you!

I've been listening to Perping Tom before, so far they haven't caught me as much as the heavier bands. However, today I started the first time listening actively to Mondo Cane and really like it.

I guess they started touring after releasing The Raging Wrath Of The Easter Bunny again?

Anyway, this man is a powerhouse! I am very thankful that he dedicates his life for so, so many great projects!
