About this album

Angel Dust is the fourth studio album by band Faith No More, first released through Slash on June 8, 1992 in Europe and the United States. It’s the final studio album with long time guitarist Jim Martin and the second to feature Mike Patton on vocals however it is the first album in which he had an influence on the band’s sound, as Patton hadn’t previously had input on the musical composition of the albums predecessor, The Real Thing, as it had all been composed and recorded prior to his joining.

It remains as Faith No More’s highest-selling album outside the United States in which, as of July 2007, the album has sold 664,000 copies there. The album and subsequent tour were very successful in Europe where it went Platinum for sales of more than 1 million copies and Gold in Australia for selling more than 35,000 copies. Worldwide sales are around 3.0 million copies for this record.

Following the success of their previous album, The Real Thing and the subsequent tour that followed, Faith No More began work on its follow-up, Angel Dust.The original title of the album was going to be called “Alienating Your Public”, but decided that Angel Dust would fit in better for the album. They decided not to “play it safe” and re-do their last album and went off in a different direction musically, much to the dismay of Jim Martin, who also didn’t approve of the album’s title, which Roddy Bottum chose, in an interview taken while they were in the studio he said: “Roddy wanted to name it Angel Dust, I don’t know why, I just want you to know that if it’s named Angel Dust, it didn’t have anything to do with me.”.
