A really awesome track on Director's Cut is The Godfather Theme. Really awesome song. On that note I'm going to start a chant.

The one I started with is Director's Cut, which is a collection of movie themes covered by Fantomas in such a way that they make it their own song. I think it is their best album. Delirium Corda is awesom except for the last 20 minutes, which is just record skipping noise. The album is a musical interpretation of surgery and is one 75min song and it is pretty creepy

Blast and damm it, another new band. Why couldn't music just stop at 1975 and leave it at that??

i heard the LP delirium cordia is it? it was reallly frustrating - they had some amazing ideas both musically, texturally, melodically any other 'ally' yer can think of - but they never develop them - that LP could have been somethin REALLY special - but to me it was 75 minutes of 3 minute sections that just when they were building into something good - they changed, Way too framentary for my liking. However - to be making music that experiemental in this AOR saturated age - is commendable in the extreme - there defo not symphonic rock but equally I think they siyt along side FAUST (esp. the recent Nosferatu soudtrack) and Shub-Niggurath etc.. so i voted YES
Hey I must say that LP of the movie soundtracks sound interesting! Is that available yet???

Plus, the name is a reference to a disturbingly fun piece of classic but relatively obscure pop-culture.

They play guitars and have used a keyboard occasionally.
And what about Ted Nugent. He has got progressively worse over the years!

Don't forget SQ has the Fonz. Heyyy! That should put them over the top.

(For those of you who don't know) Fantomas is a metal (metal in a very progressive sense) band that is led by Mike Patton (Of Mr. Bungle, Faith No More fame) Fantomas' latest release is Delirium Corda, an album consisting of one 75 minute song. There album, Director's Cut, is a reworking of movie theme songs such as Rosemary's Baby, The Godfather, Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer, and others

If John Zorn is prog, we might as well go ahed and add Peter Brotzmann, Ornette Coleman, Derek Bailey, and all the other free jazz artists. |
I don't think John Zorn should be added, I don't know all his music, but from what I've heard, most was art music or jazz, progressive, but not rock.
Still great music though!
