FAITH NO MORE. Man when I first heard Faith No More and their album The Real Thing back in high school it was so fuckin' great. I saw that first video, From Out Of Nowhere, and I was like "Who the fuck are these guys?" That album was a weird mix of styles and genres and yet it rocked so hard. The dudes in the band were all weird, weird dudes. The drummer was a natty dread. The keyboardist was an openly gay surfer-type. The guitarist looked like a Motorhead fanatic. The bassist could have been in Mudhoney and ended up playing in the very very sick Brujeria. Then, you had Mike Patton, the singer, who did not look in any way like any other frontmen out there at the time. No fake blonde hair. No fancy woman's clothes, and he sang crazy! Plus they did the best cover of Sabath's WAR PIGS! They had several singers before Mike Patton, including Chuck Mosely and, for a short time, Courtney Love.
