California PA, United States (1998 – present)

Fantômas is an band from California, USA formed in 1998 when Mike Patton, previously famous for the multi-million selling Faith No More and heroes Mr. Bungle, composed a handful of songs. Patton then sent the original compositions to musicians he thought would be right for the job, guitarist Buzz Osborne (of outfit Melvins), his childhood friend and ex-bandmate bassist Trevor Dunn (of Mr. Bungle) and drummer Igor Cavalera (from band Sepultura), but Cavalera rejected his offer. Instead, Dave Lombardo (from Slayer) joined on drums, thus his own dream group, Fantômas, was born. Patton named the group after an anti-hero featured in a series of crime novels popular in France before World War I.

    Holy fuck I forgot how good the 1st two albums were, I remember buying Delerium Cordia thinking it was going to be a heavy album when I was younger... I spent that night in bed with head phones on shitting myself.

    Also it came to my attention the other day that the Fantômas Melt-Banana split has been repressed and is therefore available... Both the square CD and the 5" vinyl - http://www.unhiprecords.bigcartel.com/product/fantomas-melt-banana

    "Very doubtful that you'll get a new album out of them now." I guess most people thought Tomahawk weren't going to make another album... I certainly thought Anonymous would be the last. It might take a while, but I certainly believe there will at some point be a new Fantômas album. People just need to stop making Patton score their films...
