The Real Thing http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/8/89/The_Real_Thing_album_cover.jpg The Real Thing is the third studio album by American rock quintet Faith No More, first released through Slash Records on June 20, 1989. It was the first release by the band not to feature vocalist Chuck Mosley; instead the album featured Mike Patton from the experimental rock band Mr. Bungle. On this album, Faith No More advanced their sound range combining heavy metal, progressive metal, hip hop, funk, jazz, and soul. The Real Thing was one of Faith No More's most successful albums to date, and is now considered a classic metal album by fans and critics. Although released in mid 1989, The Real Thing didn't enter the Billboard 200 until February 1990, after the release of the second single from the album, "Epic", and eventually peaked at number eleven on the chart in October 1990, following the reissue of "Epic" almost a year and half after the initial release of the album. It was eventually certified platinum in America and Canada as well as being certified Silver in the United Kingdom. tracklisting (key tracks in bold): 1. "From out of Nowhere" 2. "Epic" 3.

June 18, 200916 yr I like epic but thats the only one i've seen on tv, they remind me quite a bit of RHCP.
June 18, 200916 yr They remind me quite a bit of RHCP. Other way round for me. Faith No More are one of the few metal bands I really like. They were genuinely interesting and I think the change in their music style between The Real Thing and Angel Dust was a brilliant and brave move. They fizzled out but they remain brilliant.
