Fantomas



Any other Mike Patton fans and fans of this movie? Notice the samples used from this movie (on their first album) and title of fourth studio album "Suspended Animation".

Plus Beastie Boys video, can't remember which one

It was "Body Movin".

I love the Beasties. I've yet to get into Mike Patton, although I really dig some of the tracks off of Mr. Bungle's first album.

It's odd because the character of Fantomas is very similar to Diabolik... Are they the same person?

And patton does indeed rule.

There's a history of the European super-criminals from Fantomas and Diabolik on here:

I love Mike Patton's Fantomas! (As well as the Melvins, Buzz Osborne being in both bands) I haven't seen Diabolik enough to recognize the samples from Fantomas's s/t album. If you look at inside the front insert you can see some of the, I presume, original Diabolik comics.

Fantomas's s/t is one of my favorite albums of all time.
