For today’s Countdown To Heavy we say hi to one of the headliners. The legends that are FAITH NO MORE.
Formed in 1981, Faith No More was originally named Faith No Man. Bassist Billy Gould, keyboardist Roddy Bottum and drummer Mike Bordin are the longest remaining members of the band, having been involved with Faith No More since its inception. The band underwent several lineup changes early in their career, along with some major changes later on. The current version of Faith No More consists of Gould, Bottum, Bordin, guitarist Jon Hudson, and enigmatic vocalist Mike Patton.
After releasing six albums, Faith No More officially announced their breakup on April 20, 1998. They have since reunited and on September 2, 2014, Gould announced that Faith No More had been working on their seventh studio album Sol Invictus, which was released in May 2015
Faith No More headline Saturday night at this year’s festival.
