MR. BUNGLE performed their first concert in nearly two decades last night (Wednesday, February 5) at the Fonda Theater in Los Angeles, CA.
Featuring a line-up Trevor Dunn, Mike Patton, and Trey Spruance along with Dave Lombardo (Dead Cross, Suicidal Tendencies, ex-Slayer) and Scott Ian (Anthrax, S.O.D.), the band played their 1986 demo in its entirety and covered Slayer, among other songs. They also debuted some new material. You can check out fan-filmed footage above.
“Mr. Bungle’s sound and approach is a unique mix of the experimental, the abstract, and the absurd (in other words, the finer things in life). It all began in 1985, in a small California town named Eureka. The group (bassist Trevor Dunn, drummer Danny Heifetz, alto saxophonist Theo Lengyel, tenor saxophonist/clarinetist Clinton McKinnon, vocalist Mike Patton, and guitarist Trey Spruance) met while in high school and took their moniker from an extremely corny children’s educational film regarding bad habits (it was featured in a Pee Wee Herman HBO special back in the early ’80s).” – All Music
