Biography edit · view history
Mike Patton (born January 27, 1968) is an American musician and occasional voice artist.
While he began his musical career in the genre-blending outfit Mr. Bungle, he first achieved fame as the lead vocalist for the alternative metal band Faith No More in the late 80s and early 90s. Its song Epic is featured in the games Burnout Paradise, Rock Band, Saints Row: The Thirdand Guitar Hero Live as well as being available as downloadable content for Guitar Hero 5. Patton became renowned for his dynamic and versatile singing style as well as overall experimental musical approach. When Faith No More collectively decided to call it quits in 1998, Patton carried on with other musical projects, such as Fantômas, Tomahawk, and most recently, Peeping Tom. Patton has also made dozens of guest appearances on records by such artists as John Zorn, Björk and Dillinger Escape Plan.
Of note, Patton is a self-professed video game fanatic. He has already lent his voice to a few games and is slated to appear in more.
