The musical Smörgåsborders of Mr. Bungle returned to their thrash roots – and live shows, following up on a re-recording of their early demo.

The alternative rock/metal supergroup (Mike Patton + members of Jesus Lizard, Helmet, Mr. Bungle) returns with their fifth studio album, weaving between strains of rock with baffling agility. Read our full review.

The multi-talented and prolific Mike Patton has left his mark on vast swaths of rock, metal, and more: we discuss his impressive, diverse catalog.

Ten obscure, eccentric, or otherwise obtuse non-metal releases with experimentation and artistry at their cores.

We celebrate the two-decade mark for Mr. Bungle’s final full-length: “It made the complex seem effortless, in contrast to their earlier work which make the difficult sound laborious, and it transports you to a world where the impossible manifests.”

It may not have their biggest hits, but it’s the album we should remember them by
