PEEPING TOM - PEEPING TOM
Mike Patton is best known as the frontman for Faith No More, but he also has had his hands in many other musical pies, including Mr. Bungle and Tomahawk. Now, Patton unveils his latest creation, Peeping Tom, a project the singer has been touting as his most accessible work since FNM. And indeed it is. Seamlessly incorporating everything from electronic noise to hip-hop grooves and an incongruous who’s who of guest performers (Massive Attack, Bebel Gilberto, Kool Keith), Patton is either a musical genius or one lucky mad scientist. Lead single “Mojo” featuring Rahzel and Dan the Automator and “How U Feelin?” featuring Doseone are seriously catchy songs, and Norah Jones’ uncharacteristically lascivious addition to “Sucker” will surely raise some eyebrows.–Billboard
