“Carry stress in the jaw” is probably the most mindbending piece on this album. Disco Volante is an explosion of musicianship.

Carry Stress in the Jaw and The Bends are my favorites. I think The Bends is eerily beautiful, and a great work of art. The way it tells a story with almost no lyrics is phenomenal.

I went back and re-listened to Disco Volante a few years ago on an acid trip, remembering it fondly from high school. It did not hold up. A lot of the production is bad. Particularly around The Bends (whatever all the sub-pieces are called). Some of the edits in that segment were downright unprofessional. Don't get me wrong, California is still a top 3 all time album for me, but Disco Volante... just, it's kind of bad. They're very capable, adroit musicians, but the album sounds like they just fuckin' hated each other and wanted to be done with it already.

Thank you for reacting to this. Had a smirk on my face in the first part of the song knowing the heavy stuff was about to drop 😂

Immediately clicked the thumbnail when i saw this! Super Excited! You're one of the few music review channels that I've come across that i really respect your opinion. You remind me of a lot of the musician friends I used to hang out with. You're always open to anything musically! Also, I hope soon, you will take a trip into the Secret Chiefs 3 universe. Probably almost every Mr. Bungle member has contributed to it, but it's the project of Trey Spruance. I think you will love it. Listening to the albums, and not individual songs is definitely the way to go. :)

As someone is chat said, Tomahawk is a great project to check out with Mike Patton. I personally love their album "Anonymous". It has a bunch of native American textures that make it entirely unique.

Put down the wrench, eat some shrooms, grab some flower power, and head to the pipes Mario. We have a princess to save.

The noisy part always reminded of some coke up roided Delia Derbyshire piece with all the analog space sounds. Insanely awesome.

I just realized I'm not used to listen to just one song from this album. It's A-Z or bust! It truly is worth to sit through all the madness.

Mr. Bungle isn't for everybody, but it's for me. I caught 2 live shows. So good.

Awesome that you point out that nothing is sequenced or quantized. That laugh when they break into death metal is a true indication you will love everything Mr. Bungle.

You should really do the song "Desert Search For The Techno Allah".

Ah great to see you do Bungle again. For years I wished that they had a version that cut out all that middle section, but i grew to love it. Favorite track on the album!

this album is quite a trip! love it! great reactions!

Geebz, another great example of raw thrash metal from the 80s is Stormtroopers of Death, mostly Anthrax band members. Also intense but light hearted, especially their first album Speak English or Die. Would love to hear your reaction to Freddy Krueger or Fist Banging Mania!

i was already a huge fan of the first Bungle album, but, in 1995, when Disco Volante came out - W O W - never ever i had again such an experience as listening to DV for the very first time. an enormous mindblowing thing for me. there´s no words to describe what i felt. love so so so much DV! have the DV logo tattoed on my left arm.

I clicked so fast! Love this track, what a journey

Sounds like a torn relationship between the devil and Santa Claus👍

Dude, Disco Volante is in my top 10 albums of all time! I love it and I recommend listening to the entire thing, it's a masterpiece and this the perfect album closer! 💗

Less beatlesy and more Elvis to my ear. Ha ha😂

You should check out Fantomas too. For example, Director´s Cut is a pretty cool album.

Great reaction you would love Carry Stress in the Jaw of this same albulm! Patton the GOAT

This song's outro has to be one of the best resolves I've ever heard. Just brings it home perfectly.

I have worn out 1 cassette and 3 CDs of the original Mr. Bungle album. Ever see the video of their HS talent show ? I think it was called Bister Mungle.

One of my favorite bands of all time

Bro , you saying “Sounds like a Mario theme” just as I was thinking you were kinda looking like Mario bouncing around in your red shirt and blue overalls 😂🤣 Just cracking your oysters! Love ya Abba Geebz Awwwright !!🤙

Been hoping for this one for years! Great work 👍 would love to hear your take on Goodbye Sober Day and Retrovertigo 🔥

New look! Always enjoy your reviews of bands I love and grew up with. Big respect for YOU respecting good metal

Best band ever!!!

Saw them years ago and the brilliant thing is, the composition is still the same live, but with crazy stage antics too. I love Mike Patton and followed his career with fondness.

Please do “Platypus”. Danny’s drumming is phenomenal.

I love this track at the end of the album. It's just like, yeah you thought we'd have a corny outro, nah we're doing death metal and harsh noise now. 6:20 Since the track is about S****e, I'd say that is a good description. You have alot of emotions (which is why the track is going to so many places I think) and go through hell but then at around that part at 6:20 it's all over and you got beamed into heaven.

Yeah it's got that raw energy where it's less about sounding immaculate and more about just getting the sound on tape.

Loving the Super Mario fit ❤

You can experience them simultaneously (mostly Patton and Dunn) in Moonchild. I don't think Geebz knows who Jon Zorn is, which is why he (sensibly) compares them to Zappa instead of Naked City.

If you are in fact genuine, you are a good sport. Thankyou even if it hurts to be sincere! Along for the ride.

Cool choice

Would love to hear the new Bungle lineup cover this with Scott and Dave. Mike would have to break out the electronics/keyboards too.

The comparison that I have always felt with this song, specifically its transition back at the end are "Warhead" candies that are a sweet inside coated in tons of sour powder that you have to get through first. The first part of This song is "sweet" and light and feels a little bit fake, then you have this very dissonant, aggressive, noisy, "sour" section which almost feels like it is trying to drive you away (although it is surprising how much it can grow on you with repeat listenings), but then as it fades away and you are left with the consonant part again all that "sour" music has made the "sweet" sound so much more appreciated and really elevates it. Mr. Bungle often enjoys playing with consonance vs dissonance (I recommend Desert Search For Techno Allah from this album) but this is the purest example of what it can do.

Nice, great album

i played this for my parents and 2 sisters in the car when i bought the cd

i have to say i'm a tad disappointed the secret track didn't play. it would have scared the crap out of everyone mid-finishing up speech. that would have been hilarious.

It’s a bit grrrr for me, but I still love how it keeps changing up. I think I need to hear more from this band.

Yo idk if you'll see this but i reckon you might enjoy some bands that i like possibly: 'Failure' is really good Songs to check out: -undone(classic grunge mopy song) -counterfeit sky(incredible production) -heliotropic(not my favourite song but a briliant soundscape vibe) 'Twin tribes' is sick(gothic dance esk) Songs to check out: -Eternal (very cool beat, well produced) -dark crystal(cool) -shadows(good pop song) Night Tapes(very cool band) -loner(very well done pop song) -silent song(beautiful production and singing) Hope you get this man but if ya dont oh well, cheers for being a really positive person as well, very refreshing to see, honestly i hope i turn out like you when im older your a really cool guy

I have a theory about mr bungle that they make you suffer to get to the best parts of the song. that part at the end is so good.

I took this “CD”…on a scuba trip the week it came out. I was on a small sailboat in the Bahamas and this was the main disk I listened to.. it was brand new and it was a damn trip!! I was running in on a Sony Walkman with headphones. Sitting and looking at a bunch of older people ( which I’m currently the same age range)… this is the soundtrack of the seas for me.. crazy album!

First time I ever heard this album was me and my friends went to a party where the host had just bought a Nintendo 64, they were playing Mario 64 while blasting this so I associate this entire album to Super Mario! 🤯

I'll say it again, you have to listen to one of their influences, Cardiacs. Their track R.E.S. will give you a good idea of what they're about. No metal, but lots of stylistic handbrake turns and general weirdness. Listening to this made me think of Poppy when she was doing outrageous jump cuts from bubblegum pop to metal.

mike patton and Louis Cole please do a soul splintering collaboration my older brother introduced me to mr bungle when I was young

I love this song. It's one of my favorite Bister Mungle tracks of all time and it appears on my least favorite of their albums. I realize that I will likely ruffle some feathers by saying that but it's true.

This band was a predecessor to acts like slipknot

Is it just me, or is this the bass player from Tool?

Rick Beato’s cousin?

You saying it sounded like super mario bros makes me think you really need to check out the album Desperate Living from Horse the Band

its really hard to get a feel for Mr Bungle from just one song. they have a sort of Buckaroo Bonzai thing going on. many directions at once

Yep. This can be a challenging listen. BUT, the payoff is amazing.

I wish I'd had a chance to hear the later albums before I heard their self titled album. I don't know if it's just John Zorn producing, but I compare all their later work to this album and find them lacking in cohesion and drive. I've always felt that I'd enjoy the later albums if I could get away from that. I saw them tour this album and that show (including the opening act Deli Creeps featuring a young Buckethead) fucked me up forever (in a good way). 🤟🧙‍♂🤟

The coherence of the first album was due to the 4-5 years they'd spent playing most of those songs. Some people, in fact, prefer the demo versions over the album versions. But then you lose the train-hopping, profane Colonel Sanders, and Mr. Bungle school film and porn film samples. Disco Volante, imo, shows much greater Zorn influence than the first album.

In reference to the 70's comment I'm just going to say.., Lemmon714.

All anyone can say is it’s Mike Fucking Patton. He has the most schizophrenic music career I have ever seen!

So when you say "it's not quanticized", it means it's still digitally recorded and edited, but the notes are not... digitally edited to be like on par or something?

just for the record, i almost broke the 666 # of likes, so if it changes, it wasnt me

😂

I remember seeing them live when they were 1st touring this album...the crowd was clearly expecting to mosh to the same sort of metal-circus vibe from their 1st album...didn't happen..most were totally perplexed/frustrated. I love it, but its complexity and lack of consistent grooves make it a departure point for a lot of less sophisticated listeners who were only able to relate to the first album.

Wow dude ,u have a doppelganger in bassem Youssef are u related ?

Needs more acoustic bass. I was like "what are they doing... oh"? Live play? No it's just some mad person with gifted digital skills. Very gifted. Multiple mics in a garage/church/basement is the Lost Art. This track is pretty dope though. Reminds me of what we used to call World Music.
