The band underwent several early lineup changes, and some major changes later on. After releasing six studio albums, including best-selling records The Real Thing and Angel Dust , [5] Faith No More officially announced its breakup on April 20, The band has since reunited, conducting The Second Coming Tour between and , and releasing its seventh studio album, Sol Invictus , in May In November , the band made the announcement that they would be reuniting to embark on a UK and European tour.

Worthington left shortly thereafter. They changed their name to Faith No Man for the release of the single, which featured two of the three songs recorded in Wallace's garage, [10] and hired Roddy Bottum to replace Worthington.
So, without further ado, here are my top 10 Faith No More songs. Not an obvious choice, I admit, but to me it really showcases their earlier sound. The ever-prevalent synth playing, a dark series of dark chords mixed with the funky bass and relentless drums builds the perfect bed for Mosley to really let go vocally.

The synths simply soar and take you away. Not my favourite album of theirs, but, this song shines out as one of my all-time favourites.
