Today at work ATAE and I were discussing the relationship between Faith No More and the Red Hot Chilli Peppers, it seemed at the time they were the beginnings of a whole new metal genre, I remember the label Funk Metal being thrown about at some point in the early nineties but this didn’t seem to stick.
It must have been quite a small or short lived movement, the only participants being the afore mentioned bands plus Primus and Extreme (uurgh) and maybe Living Colour.
I much preferred Faith No More back then, and primus would come second, I never thought the Chilli Peppers would become as big as they have or produce such fantastic albums, my only complaint with Stadium Arcadium is that its so bloody long, why not cut out half the songs and release a super album then follow it up with sessions or additional material album like the Missions Grains Of Sand collection.
