Dog Fashion Disco

Obviously. I've listened to their discography and The Embryo's In Bloom is my favorite. But all of them are good, so good.

I hadn't heard too much about this band but an old friend recommended them to me over the holidays (and El Creepo). I just got through sampling most of their albums on Amazon and they definitely sound very much like their influences, but I'm willing to go for it. I'm a longtime Patton fan but by all accounts I've read, these guys pull off the sound very well without sounding like rip-offs. I mean, they do sound like rip-offs but they supposedly have talent and do it well. So I'm downloading Adultery.

The first time I had ever head of these guys, I saw them open for System of a Down in 2001 or 2002. And they were ****in' great live. Weird as shit, but great all the same. I didn't really get into them until I was 18 when I bought Anarchists of Good Taste. Great album. And Adultery was highly anticipated when I heard it was coming out. And I wasn't disappointed when it dropped. And then they toured one more time and broke up. Balls.

I didn't really think of them much again until my friend Dan was over at my house with his Ipod, and he had Adultery and Committed to a Bright Future on it. I had since lost my copy of Adultery, I got them both from him. I listened to Adultery on the way home from our show on Saturday, and it brought a lot of nostalgia.

I recently got Adultery the other week and I was really enjoying it. I think my favourite song on it was "Private Eye" just because I have a thing for that Noir sound. Anarchists Of Good Taste is my next stop on these guys, but I'm kind of taking a bit of a break from downloading for a week or two and absorb all the stuff I got over the last month.

I'm hearing that right now for the first time...I like it. I always loved Patton's "softer" or higher pitched vocals, and I like the darkness of the track and parts of it even remind me of Lovage. Win.

I am enjoying this album.

Hate to rain on your parade, but that's not Mike Patton. I was just having this conversation with my little brother yesterday.
This was their final line-up.
* Todd Smith - vocals
* Jasan Stepp - guitars
* Brian "Wendy" White - bass guitar
* John Ensminger - drums
* Jeff Siegel - keyboards
* Matt Rippetoe - horns
Straight outta Baltimore, baby.

Lol. You're serious?

He is, I could have sworn it was Patton as well, the vocals were nearly identical.

Woah, hold up. I was being sarcastic in asking if he was serious. Meaning, "duh...I know it's not Patton". I've been a Patton fanboy since the early 90s, I'm very well aware that it's not Mike Patton. If it was, I'd have been listening to this band since their first album.

My last post was simply implying that the singer here was mimicking Patton's "softer" or higher pitched vocals in that particular song, and that parts of the song reminded me of the way he sung in Lovage, but also the sexuality of it. I wouldn't have felt to need to make any of those comparisons if it actually was Patton.

I don't know. I can definitely tell a difference between Dog Fashion and any Mike Patton project. If we want to talk about Patton mimics, lets talk about Incubus.
