I´ve owned Stinky Grooves since the early 90´s - first as LP listened to it on my Walkman and now I got it on CD and listen to it on my ipod almost every day. I love the Limbomaniacs and I would love a reunion. They are part of my life and will ever be.
Saw these guys as the opening act for ??? at the (formerly known as) The Palace in Hollywood, somewhere around 1991 or so. So blown away I bought their album. Never heard from them again, but that entire album is burned into my head. I think it's the first time I ever heard William Burrough's voice ("Pavlov's Frothing Dog").
Brain on drums(later with MCM and Primus), Mark Haggard on guitat(later formed M.I.R.V.)(who at one time had Brian Kehoe who formed The Kehoe Nation) this FAR from 90s cheese. This part of a large circle of outstanding musical artists that also included bands like Mofessionals, Fungo Mungo, Psycophunkapus, and Mr.Bungle. Just cause someone can't see the talent before them doesn't mean that they should piss on it.
Jan 2 2010 At Slim's 333 11th Street San Francisco, CA Presents A Benefit For City Of Hope Cancer Hospital with The Return Of Psychefunkapus, Fungo Mungo, Limbomaniacs Plus SPECIAL GUESTS Showtime: 9:00 PM (Doors: 8:00 PM) All Ages 6 and Over TICKETS ON SALE SUN. OCTOBER 11
Funny how many people comment on FNM and the chili peppers, but nobody that actually understands the music or who these bands are.
Did any of you ever think that the singer of FNM is exremely respected in many circles of music while anthony kedis has virtually disappeared from "the scene"
I have to admit when these guys first hit in 1990 I wrote them off as a poor man's Chili Peppers...then a few years later (for some reason) I listened to the LP again and really dug it. I think for most people they looked and sounded a bit too much like the Peppers which I kinda why they never went anywhere.
But these guys are skads better than Faith No More (shudder) Now there's a band that really wanted to be the Chili Peppers, especially the lead singer.
It's funny you should say that, since they both came out of the same scene in California and Faith No More was around first. That sound was very popular in L.A. around that time. Infectious Grooves and to a lesser extent Suicidal Tendencies are an example of that. And let's not forget Primus.
Mike Patton is eons a more versatile (and in tune) vocalist who still continues to push boundaries to this day. Chili Peppers haven't made anything worth shit since One Hot Minute.
Right, that's why FNM broke up in 1997 and haven't done anything since then (wait, they did just reform without the lead guitarist and by all account suck even more now then they did when they broke up...if that's even possible). In contrast, the Peppers have been releasing albums, selling out shows and oh yeah making music that doesn't suck! Go figure.
And Mike Patton, still wants to be Tony Kiedas, but will never be, especially with that crappy band. But hey, no accounting for taste right?
Pretty damn good band. Funk Metal is my favorite genre and it was big just in the right time! 1988-1992 was the best years in everything and especially music!
Used to have a copy myself. Brilliant stuff, The toilet's blocked, porno, shake it, Butt funkin', freestyle, Pavlov's frothin' dogs. Sheer comic genius and some real musical talent too.
I got to see these guys play many times. The last time was at One Step Beyond with Tower Of Power opening for them. There were many great and original bands playing the clubs in the Bay Area back then. Along with the Limbomaniacs there was Primus, Fungo Mungo, Psychefunkapus, and the Bluchunks. It's too bad only Primus became big nationally. The rest of the country missed out on some great music.
For the comment below "I have the 90's", this video isn't anything like the band live. They probably got talked into this by some record company wimp that wanted it to look like MC Hammer!
Great!!

I really like your parameters to compare bands.
I love the 2 bands, but RHCP since Blood Sugar Sex Magik (well, maybe one hot minute) is really a shadow of what the band was.
FNM is absolutely awesome. Patton was invited by Bjork for an album that had only voices, that should show you something about singing qualities
