One of the most versatile voices ever. Mike Patton never ripped off Kiedis' style his voice has far too much range. Many try to imitate him(Serj Tankian, Johnathon Davis, etc.) but to no avail.

The most talented and versatile vocalist and musician in modern alternative music. Has recorded on no fewer than 60 albums, either as a solo artist, guest contributor, or as lead vocalist... these include Mr Bungle, Faith No More, Tomahawk, Fantomas, Lovage, Peeping Tom, Weird Little Boy, Romances, Moonchild, Dillinger Escape Plan, John Zorn, The Melvins, Sepultura, Kid 606, Hemophiliac, Dub Trio, and many more.

His newest projects are Crudo (with Dan The Automator) and Mondo Cane (an Italian orchestral piece.)

Throw into the mix his involvement in films (both starring and writing/recording soundtracks,) and voiceovers in video games... you have a pretty busy man.

Mike Patton was the vocalist for Mr. Bungle before they stopped making music. He now is the singer for Faith No More. Patton also provided the voice of The Darkness in the video game... The Darkness.
Mike Patton manifests himself in two tentacles that come out of Jackie's shoulders and eat the faces off of people.

Singer who found fame in Faith No More. Later used his fame to boost Mr Bungle (who were an excellent, excellent band), but never received the attention they deserved.
Quit Faith No More, and then quit Mr Bungle, and now makes a lot of tepid music under different monikers.
Embarressed by the fact he blatantly copied Anthony Kiedis, even though he was light years ahead in terms of talent and originality, and his dress sense in the early 90's late 80's, and his part in the 'funk metal' scene, and the fact Faith No More are called the Godfather's of Nu-Metal.
Also slightly embarressed by his typical late teen/early twenties' adventures. Now pushing his thinning career into cult (shit) films roles.
