Product Description

From Amazon.com

A curious coda from a truly peculiar bunch. Who Cares a Lot is the swan song of the most engaging band to come to the fore when the late-'80s and early-'90s funk-punk hordes defiled the land. What set the San Francisco-based quintet apart all the lukewarm Chili Peppers of the time was powerful musicianship (few hard-rock bands could match them onstage in their Real Thing prime) and a contrary disposition. When the sweeping "Epic" briefly transformed FNM into MTV darlings, they responded by recording their most challenging work, the jarringly unpredictable Angel Dust, a commercial lapse from which they never quite recovered. Then there was their unsettling taste for easy-listening sounds, rather too generously evidenced on this best-of package by Lionel Richie's "Easy," Bacharach and David's "This Guy's in Love with You," the Bee Gees' "I Started a Joke," and "Theme from Midnight Cowboy." Their adrenaline-drunk fans never knew whether to cry or laugh. Of course, their trademark extreme alt-rap-metal forays are also in evidence, from 1987's "We Care a Lot" (a puncturing parody of altruistic star sing-alongs) to the half dozen turn-out-the-lights tracks from 1998. Ultimately, no one ever found solace in Faith No More, but, as Who Cares a Lot affirms, they were often beyond belief. --Steven Stolder

A Fond Farewell 25 April 2001
By A Customer
Format:Audio CD
Being a massive fan of everything Faith No More I bought this the moment it hit the shelves. The album is a monster, following the life of perhaps one of the most versatile (and volatile) bands we are ever likely to see and shows FNM's refusal to be placed into any single genre container. From the hoarse screamings of 'Digging The Grave' to a rendition of 'Easy' that even impressed Lionel Richie with its elegance, this album grabs you from the start and refuses to let you go until it's over.

Anyone with a few quid to spare and want to know what they were about should go for this one (and then buy all the rest).

The last CD to be released by Faith No More ultimately had to be their Best Of (well Greatest Hits actually) but it is a truly great album. They had great metal-type riffs but also had appeal to the Pop side of things. Mike Patton's ever changing voice was on top form on tracks like Epic and Stripsearch. Their great mix of pop and metal was quite refreshing and very listenable. The best track (for me) had to be Epic with its heavy bassline imposing keyboards and great guitar riff with Patton changing his vocal sound halfway through the chorus. On paper you wouldn't recognise most of the songs but when you hear them you think you have heard them before.

All in all it is a superb album (with a few glaring omissions) which is on constant rotation on my CD player.

this is a good cd as it has all the singles, well, most of them. missing are suprise!you`re dead and everythings ruined, not quite sure why ?

there could have been so much more to this CD. a few good live recordings (we care a lot, crab song etc), a few b-sides (the grade etc), but there isn`t. the extra tracks are not that great either. the booklet inside could have been improved with a full discography and more pictures.

so buy this for all the great singles but if you really want the best of faith no more buy the albums
