mike patton and native america
22Jun07

Anonymous by Tomahawk (one of Mike Patton’s numerous projects, John Stanier from Battles also drums) dropped this week. Experimental rock inspired by Native American chants and hymns doesn’t sound like it would be that far off from Patton’s other eclectic endeavors, and it isn’t. Its a decent album that seems to respect its subject matter, but that’s coming from someone who is used to the ridiculousness of some of his other projects like Fantômas. It still seems funny to say that even with this release, Tomahawk is still one of Patton’s most accessible (current) projects.



Yeah I just grabbed this, samples sounded great. Yet to listen to the album but looking forward to it. Wouldn’t you call Peeping Tom more accessible than this, just curious?

One of Patton’s most accessible. Yes Peeping Tom would have more commercial appeal, esp with the collaborative elements.
