My fave contemporary vocalist. I love about 80% of his stuff.. some of it is a bit too experimental however but will usually give it a nudge, Fantomas for example.
FNM is a given, no particular fave album there but thought Sol Invictus was very average.
Tomahawk blows me away every time and espicially love Irony Is a Dead Scene he did with Dillinger.
The first Peeping Tom album is great for slower stuff.
The guy can do it all and he has personality to boot.
What are your Patton gems?

Another +1 for me, FNM one of my favourite bands.

I'd give Sol Invictus another go Griff, some real gems on there

Saw FNM in Liverpool years ago. I was as sick as a dog though and left after one song... :-(

Yep, favourites are probably Mr Bungle (California), Tomahawk (Mit Gas) and FNM (Album of the year). Enjoy Fantomas and Lovage as well.

Went to that one for free - nobody took our tickets as we walked in, so we got one guy to take them for refunds at the ticket office.
