Fifth studio album from the Bay Area's Faith No More. King For A Day...Fool For A Lifetime was originally recorded in 1994 and featured a more diverse and varied sound than the band's previous releases. As on earlier outings Mike Patton tackles any vocal challenge put in front of him. Whether it's the romantic love song in "Evidence," the evil sounding "The Gentle Art of Making Enemies," the schizophrenic "Ugly in the Morning," or the loungey pop of "Caralho Voador" Patton is always on point. This expanded release includes a cover of Bee Gees' "I Started a Joke," live versions of "Digging the Grave" and "The Gentle Art of Making Enemies," and an interview track. Twenty-two tracks in all. Released by Slash Records on 180 gram double vinyl housed in a gatefold sleeve.
