Based on your reading of the characters I have a few questions if you dont mind answering them

Will Tommy have a new love in the movie?

Did S6 make it clear that Lizzys trajectory and her relationship with Tommy has ended?

Sorry for taking so long to get to this!!

I hope not? In 3 hours max, there is so much else I would like to see than giving him a romantic arc. I also don't think erotic or romantic love is all that much of a driver for him, so to devote time to a new erotic or romantic arc would feel very strange - *familial* love is important to him. I hope the movie is about family, especially Charlie. And given the era of focus as just prior to WWII, I think there's opportunity for some very interesting setup that takes Tommy out of the claustrophobia/inner focus of the last few seasons and starts to more cleverly use the zoom in and zoom out of family and political context. I mean, I *do* think they'll probably throw Tommy into bed with someone because that, too, is a significant part of who Tommy Shelby is, but I just don't see all that much room for a "love" arc. (Also I hate the idea of "find the right woman = all his problems solved!" because of what it does to women as well as an outcome that just doesn't exist in the real world -> I think if they did throw in a new love arc in 3 hours it would be very difficult to avoid that shortcut of Fix the Broken Man with the Love of a Woman being made. That's such a crappy motif :/)

Hard to say. Structurally, Lizzie was in every season, and we know end of S6 still left her with significant power in the business as well as custodianship of Charlie, so I really hope she's still in the movie - except with a major power shift. CEO Lizzie is absolutely my bag and that's what I would totally want to see, and her moving up the social/economic ladder in every series would structurally support that kind of leap in the movie. That in itself necessitates a relationship between her and Tommy, but I'm kind of impartial as to whether it's sexual, whatever - what I'd like to see is a different relationship, because every season also showed a very, very different evolution of a Lizzie & Tommy relationship. To show a final evolution where she is the one with the power would be interesting. I think a 'marriage' arc for them is done, though. Personally I never like arcs that end in marriage as the 'goal' - I've been more interested in how S5 and S6 showed marriage as a daily thing not as a goal - so to move beyond that and show a very different relationship filter would make structural sense as well as be interesting to me. I think if Charlie comes into the movie, it'd be hard to cut Lizzie out, too, but I can also see a scenario where she doesn't come back, because within that time constraint of a movie they'd have to be really careful picking a focus.

Did you know that in the musical cosmos, there exists a band that defies genres and stands as a true testament to the power of artistic innovation? Allow me to introduce you to the enigmatic and genre-bending phenomenon that is Faith No More!

Back in '82, a group of musical mavericks gathered in San Francisco to birth the eclectic force that is Faith No More. The lineup included the visionary Mike Bordin on drums, Roddy Bottum on keys, the bass Billy Gould, guitarist Jim Martin, and the charismatic Chuck Mosley as the original vocalist.

Faith No More's journey is a sonic rollercoaster, defined by experimentation and pushing boundaries. The notorious Mike Patton took over vocals in '89, propelling the band into uncharted territories of alternative and metal, leaving an indelible mark on the musical landscape.

Fast forward to '89, and the world was gifted the iconic anthem 'Epic.' A genre-defying masterpiece, it catapulted them into mainstream consciousness and showcased their ability to seamlessly blend rock, rap, and funk. An absolute game-changer!

The album 'The Real Thing' (1989) became their magnum opus, showcasing a fusion of musical styles that was unheard of at the time. It's an exploration of sonic landscapes that continues to resonate and influence artists across genres.

Did you know that Faith No More's 'Angel Dust' album cover features a collage by the renowned artist H. R. Giger, who also designed the creature in the 'Alien' film series? Talk about a cosmic connection!

Hey friends

Do you want a music recommendation? Some real musical pioneers that don't really get talked about much but were very influential?

My friends, you should check out Faith No More. I have been listening to them a lot and they're really great. So you remember that whole thing in the 2000s when all the metal bands were adding rap? And like all these people have gone nuts over Linkin Park?

Faith No More was doing that in the 80s. Their first two albums were major groundbreaking pieces for the funk metal genre that major bands like Fishbone (kinda) and Red Hot Chili Peppers were part of. Chuck Mosley's vocals on the album Introduce Yourself are absolutely incredible. The way he performed "We Care A Lot" is so wonderfully playful for such a cheekily cynical song. After that album, Mosley would leave Faith No More due to personal problems making difficulties for the rest of the band, but his time with the band is often overlooked for what comes later. I really like Mosley's music! He later went on to join Bad Brains and man if you don't know Bad Brains you owe it to youself to check them out too.

After Mosley, Mike Patton joined the band as lead singer and the band started to take off. You probably know a Faith No More song from that era. "Epic" got a lot of play on MTV and is still really recognizable. I think everyone knows the chorus of "You want it all but you can't have it. It's in your face but you can't grab it." It's from the album The Real Thing and god that whole album is so good! It released in 1989 but the argument could be made that it was really the forst album of the 90s. The sound was just so on the pulse of the cultural zeitgeist it's like it came 20 minutes too soon. They were doing things people didn't realize they wanted to do until they did it.

Their follow up albums, Angel Dust and King For A Day are also really fantastic. Give them a listen! They're fantastic musicians and you will be impressed at how their music holds up to this day!

Mike Patton Has Faith In His Future

Singer takes brainy, funny approach to music with new band Fantomas

James Sullivan, Chronicle Staff Writer Sunday,June 14, 1998

Mike Patton heard a blitzkrieg of music in his head. Then he went out and found the musicians who could play it.

Every worker has the tools of his trade, says Patton, who until recently was lead singer of the longtime San Francisco hard- rock mainstay Faith No More. ``My tools are musicians, effects, things like that. I got lucky that these guys wanted to work with me.''

The new group is called Fantomas; Patton's seasoned supporting cast includes Melvins guitarist Buzz Osborne, ex-Slayer drummer Dave Lombardo and Trevor Dunn, bassist for the singer's other long-running group, Mr. Bungle.

Perpetually energized

The perpetually energized Patton, 30, evidently isn't a guy who wastes much time. Mere weeks after the breakup of Faith No More, the acrobatic singer is set to put his new project out on a high wire. With just a few days of rehearsal completed, Fantomas debuts Thursday at Slim's, then travels to New York for a pair of dates July 1-2 at the Knitting Factory.

``We're talking about this thing that could blow up in our faces,'' Patton says, his voice rising with excitement. ``My plan is to rehearse it five days before the gig, and it'll be fresh. And if it blows up, it blows up.''

The band's name comes from a turn-of-the- century series of French crime novels featuring a one-man social disturbance called Fantomas. Whether or not the band wreaks any havoc of its own, Patton would like its internal relations to stay calm.

During Faith No More's rocky 16-year career the group earned a notorious reputation for infighting. Patton joined as singer in 1988, replacing future Bad Brains member Chuck Mosley (Courtney Love also sang with the band but lasted only four shows). Toward the end, keyboardist Roddy Bottum launched the successful pop group Imperial Teen, and drummer Mike ``Puffy'' Bordin took up with Ozzy Osbourne's touring band.

Contrary to certain opinions, Patton says Faith No More did not thrive on chaos. ``I didn't enjoy that part of it at all. I don't think coming down hard on a guy one day is going to make me write some brilliant lyrics the next day.''

With Fantomas, he says, there won't be any lyrics at all, brilliant or otherwise: ``It's all, like, comic-book sounds and baby talk.'' Patton says he is trying to avoid similarities to Mr. Bungle, however, which traffics in a delirious cacophony of sound fragments.

``It's crazy-sounding, it's got very fast changes and it involves some loud, noisy parts,'' Patton says of the new group's music. ``And that's about it. I consciously did not want to put a sub-Mr. Bungle band on the map. I don't think the world needs that.''

As with Mr. Bungle, which comes across like a heavy-metal version of Raymond Scott's intricate cartoon-jazz arrangements from the '30s, Faith No More was often cited for the wry humor of its musicianship and deadpan covers of songs such as the Commodores' ``Easy.''

Staying away from comedy

Patton rejects the notion that his music is comedic. ``That's something that gets tossed onto it after the fact. Whatever, if you want to call it slapstick. I just think (Faith No More has) gotten in trouble with that in the past.

``If you start with (comedy), you're making a left turn before you even get where you want to go. What you're doing is putting a smirk on your face, and in case anybody doesn't like it, you can say, `Aw, we were just kidding.' I think that's b.s.''

If his music sometimes draws smiles, Patton remains deadly serious and somewhat brainy about it. His side projects include a pair of solo records for avant-gardist John Zorn's Tzadik label, one of which, ``Pranzo Oltranzista,'' features Italian song titles culled ``from a book of futurist recipes.''

``I guess musicians see things in music,'' he says, ``and I wanted to make music about that.

``I don't actually read that much. I like movies a bit more. That's how I come up with ideas -- by seeing things, hearing things, recycling things. Stealing things!''

In part because of its grueling touring schedules, Faith No More never felt much like a hometown band, Patton says. ``We spent so much time milking it in other places that we never really got a chance to do anything here. I guess our high point was when we went to Europe seven times on one record.''

The excursions took their toll. ``By the time we got back, my favorite restaurant would be closed down, or a couple of friends would've moved away. While you're living in this little bubble, everyone else is getting on with it.''

Patton hopes to record with Fantomas in the fall. Thus far it's undetermined whether the group will release an album on its own or sign a deal, though the singer does admit lingering concerns about Faith No More's unfulfilled obligations with Warner Bros. ``I better not talk about it,'' he says.

Given the other commitments of the Fantomas members, the new group won't be a full-time job for Patton, as Faith No More was. ``This isn't going to be some `Animal House,' John Belushi-style band where everybody's living in the same house,'' Patton says. ``I'm not into that anymore.''

Unfamiliar Bband mates

Besides, he hardly knows some of his new band mates. ``I think I've met Dave once. I'm going by the records he's made.

``Buzz I know a little better because he used to live up here. Still, I don't know enough about these guys to know what kind of deodorant they use, or whether they pee on the toilet seat.''

He'll find out soon enough, when the band begins touring. In the meantime, Patton is happy to debut the group in San Francisco.

`You've got to do it somewhere, sometime. I'd rather be at home, comfortable, than sitting in Quebec eating french fries with gravy on them.

So my favorite FNM songs are Just A Man, Land Of Sunshine, Underwater Love, Epic, Falling To Pieces, A Small Victory, and Stripsearch. I also like Kindergarten, Everything's Ruined and RV. How about you?

Just a man is so beautiful, one of my fav too ❤️. I love their first album with Chuck Mosley (We care a lot, Anne's song, Introduce yourself).

My favorite album with Mike would be King for a day I think or Angel Dust.

Fav songs : Ricochet, Evidence, Gentle art of making enemy, Smaller and smaller, Everything's ruined, Jizzlobber, Zombie eaters and Edge of the world.

[cathode-ray-rube]

forever sad about Chuck Mosley dying, i love his vocals, and have been listening to cement, faith no more and other things he sang for recently, and I feel like if him, Gibby from butthole surfers and Les Claypool had gotten together they coulda made some insane shit

Faith No More - “We Care A Lot” [x]

[samurairobotics]

* Reprise Records (April '98)

Article from Reprise Records

Faith No More Exists No More

Contributing Editor Colin Devenish reports

Following a steady slew of swirling rumors about their imminent demise, Faith No More have officially called it quits 13 years after the release of their first album, We Care A Lot.

The San Francisco hard-rock quintet, which last recorded for the Reprise label, has been long rumored to be on the rocks. The members of the band put an end to speculation regarding their future with a statement issued Monday by their management.

Howie Klein, president of Reprise, said he was not completely surprised, but that he was disappointed by the breakup of the band that he said he's followed since the recording of its first album. The band released five albums in total.

"Long before I was associated with Reprise, I was a disc jockey at KUSF in San Francisco, and the band had recorded We Care A Lot," Klein said. "They brought it into the studio and said, 'Can you play this?' We put it on, and it became a number-one record at the station. I've loved the band ever since."

During their career, Faith No More were briefly fronted by Hole singer Courtney Love and then by rapper/singer Chuck Mosley. But the band enjoyed its greatest success after Mike Patton took over as lead vocalist. With the charismatic Patton, Faith No More recorded their best-selling album, The Real Thing, which included the hit single "Epic."

Various members of the group are proceeding with their own projects. Drummer Mike Bordin, who has toured with heavy-metal giant Ozzy Osbourne, is in demand as a session player. Keyboardist Roddy Bottum's band, the San Francisco quartet Imperial Teen, will release its second album, What Is Not To Love, in May. Meanwhile, Patton will continue with his longtime side-project Mr. Bungle and a new collective called Phantomas, featuring Buzz Osbourne of Melvins fame on guitar, Mr. Bungle bassist Trevor Dunn and ex-Slayer skinsman Dave Lombardo.

Greg Werckman, who will manage Phantomas, said the band will play its first gig on June 18 at Slim's in San Francisco and described the group as being the brainchild of Patton.

"Patton made a tape of himself playing all the instruments, and then he asked his favorite bassist, guitarist and drummer to join him," Werckman said. "Each of the members sent the tape back to him with tapes of what their parts would be, and it's evolved into a tape of what they'd like to be done."

Werckman added that the foursome plan to be a full-time band that tours and records and that they are leaning toward a fall release for an album of new material.

Asked about the prospect of Reprise picking up Phantomas or any other possible Faith No More offshoots, Klein left the door open.

"I love those guys," Klein said. "I'm open to anything they do. They're very talented."
