I started this a long time ago but never finished it. Faith No More is just about my favorite band ever. So I'm giving it another try.

Lots of bad stuff about this book.

First off the editing is terrible. Probably at least one typo every other page.

Next the layout. The design looked like something I would have done my first year at college. Tons of "art" and faded backgrounds that made the text hard to read. Also sometimes there were extra spaces like there was an extra carriage return at the show more end of a paragraph or something. To add to this sometimes the format would be an interview and the questions would be bolded and the answer not. That's fine except that after a few iterations they forgot the bolding.

Many times you couldn't tell who was talking. Sometimes there were labels like "Patton: blah, blah, blah". But many times there weren't or even worse the same paragraph contained quotes from more than one person. The other problem is that unless you know all the band members first and last names you would have to keep checking to see "Oh that's the bass player". To make it worse sometimes the author used their first name and other times their last.

So it was interesting to find out the "real story" of Faith No More. It probably made me think less of the band overall but it did make me curious about what happened after this book, which only covered up to the Angel Dust album and Jim Martin being kicked out. show less
