huge new interview www.movieweb.com/news/exclusive-mike-patton-talks-the-solitude-of-prime-numbers

Cheers to Derek at goodbyesoberday for posting this.

Been waiting a while for an interview like this, a big ol interview about all his projects.

Crudo – indefinitely on the shelf

Peeping Tom – potentially two more albums with album number 2 being worked on or released next year.

Tomahawk – recording in February

Nevermen – in progress

Mondo Cane – a 2nd album and a DVD will eventually see the light of day

Faith No More – the album question is breached

Thanks corym for the heads up on this http://www.sydneyfestival.org.au/2012/Music/Mike-Pattons-Mondo-Cane/

So Patton has finally managed to get MC over to this side of the globe, did a quick bit of searching and can’t find any further dates yet but I’d imagine that more may show up.

For any fans of Mondo Cane (i’m sure there are at least a couple around here) South America is showing the Patton love with lots of pro-shot Mondo Cane footage!

Mondo Cane “Deep Down” Chile:

So it looks like Secret Chiefs 3 and Cobra aren’t the only places for ex Mr-B guys to work together. Trey guested in MC a while back and now Trevor Dunn and William Winant are helping out!

Ipecac recently announced Mondo Cane will be playing a show in Buenos Aires, Argentina. The details:

Mondo Cane

September 17, 2011

Teatro Coliseo

Buenos Aires, Argentina

Tickets go on sale March 31 at Theater’s Box Office (without service charge) or Ticketek (www.ticketek.com.ar)

This announcement follows hot on the heels of the revelation of the Secret Chiefs 3, Umlaut, MadLove South American tour happening this August. Lots of quality about to happen in that part of the world!

Lusty is back at it again providing us ravenous fans with the latest news. This time it’s over at American Noise in the form of a lengthy chat she had with Greg Werckman, Mr Patton‘s partner and Ipecac Recordings frontman.

Among other things, Greg talks about the the state of the music industry, life in the digital age of music (from a small label’s perspective), upcoming Ipecac releases and some news on Mike Patton projects.

On digital music:

“digital is getting really close to matching CD sales. The bands that tour sell a lot of CDs. It’s really kind of funny because a lot of people say ‘Oh the CD is dead,’ but it’s not. When our bands play live, they sell a lot of CDs at the shows.”

On social media:

“I remember Shawn (Vezinaw), who runs our Los Angeles office saying, “I need Mike to take pictures when he’s on the road with his phone, they don’t need to be good, just anything so I can put them on Facebook.” And Mike and I both thought that was kind of goofy. But Mike started doing it. He’d take a picture of a meal he had and Sean would put it up there and there would be hundreds of responses to it. It’s seems odd but you got to do it.”

On The Melvins:

“I still think, as popular as The Melvins are, that they are just ridiculously overlooked. I don’t think there’s a better hard rock band going and that includes the huge bands that play arenas like Metallica or whatever. The Melvins are rock and roll.”

On Mike Patton’s current projects:

“He did the score for the Italian filmThe Solitude of Prime Numbers so we’re going to be putting out that soundtrack. A couple of shows he’s done over the years we’ve taped: there’s a Fantômas New Year’s show that we’re working on that’s going to be this really cool, really funny live DVD that we’ll be putting out.

He’s in the early stages of working on some new Tomahawk music and some new Fantômas music, more Mondo Cane—he’s literally working on six or seven records right now. He’s also got this project (that we’re not putting out) called Nevermen, that’s coming out on Lex Records. It’s with Tunde from TV on the Radio and Dose One from the Anticon world. It’s just going to be three vocalists. It’s just a weird, kind of cool record. He’s also signed up to reprise his role in the Darkness II video game.”

Check out the full interview at American Noise

C/o Patton’s official FB. Did you guys pre-order? Limited edition and all that…. Can’t wait for mine, now all I need is a good turntable =/

Totally forgot to post about this but Wanderlusting, author of that excellent Billy Gould interview on CoS took some great pics of the recent Mondo Cane Hardly Strictly Bluegrass Festival.

Check em out

Six months after the release of Mike Patton‘s Mondo Cane album and on the back of the bands first U.S show (with special guest Trey Spruance), the vinyl version of the album will be released.

Limited to 5000 units worldwide, the album is available November 22 and will more than likely sell out fast, so grab a pre-order if you’re keen for a copy.

“For all the hard core fans the vinyl version of Mike Patton‘s Mondo Cane has arrived. This will be a triple gatefold diecut on 180gram vinyl, limited to 5000 worldwide.

Recorded at a series of European performances, this album features traditional Italian pop songs as well as a rendition of Ennio Morricone’s Deep Down . Sung in Italian, Patton worked with a full orchestra and choir to create the unique new sound.”

Still waiting for that Mondo Cane DVD, hoping it still sees the light of day!

And with a pleasant surprise…Mr Spruance hiding somewhere in the band strummin on the ol’ geetor. Looks like it was an amazing show!
