Mondo Cane stands out as one of Mike Patton's most surprising yet most 'that totally makes sense' musical endeavours: sweeping versions of '50s and '60s Italian pop music, rendered with respect and creativity rather than as a pisstake, and with orchestral accompaniment. Faith No More fans might have seen hints to this in that band's occasional Burt Bacharach covers or some of Bungle's more... Read More
