Mr Bungle is a musicians band. Not really for the casual listner. But there's alot going on that's incredibly hard to do.

Yes, they did influence Slipknot. There is a lot going on in Mr. Bungle songs, it can be hard to take in one listen. There are many better songs from them, but they are exceptionally weird, which I personally love.

That was pretty much my reaction first time I heard this song, Bungle is an aquired taste and took me some time to appreciate but this song is fire and I laughed through this whole reaction, sorry but it literally took me back to when I first heard them and I was like WTF am I listerning to, so not at all surprised by your reaction lol

Mike Patton is a friggin genius... and his ass is on fire.

I get that Mr Bungle is not for everyone, but I think you should give another chance because their every album is different from another, this first album was some weird funky circus metal. Try something from California album like Retrovertigo which is a great song. And you are right Mr Bungle has influenced Slipknot and Korn as well.

Dude, that's Mike Patton the singer of Faith No More's first band, even before he joined faith no more. You started out with the wrong song--try Carousel--his vocal genius is more clear there. It's still a difficult band to get into.

Probably one of the most amazing and entertaining shows I’ve ever seen. Every song and album is so different from the next. California is the most listenable album for the untrained ear.

This bungle song is the most difficult to get used to on that album .. idk why it’s trending on the reaction channels.

What a Thanksgiving. treat! Hahahaha! This album changed my life making it a much weirder life.

another one to try is Squeeze Me Macaroni

Got to admit, their shows looks like fun

Back into the ocean of Mr. Bungle reaction videos

Try “The Air-Conditioned Nightmare” from their California album. Very different album to this one

whoever suggested this, you're my hero

pretty much all of nu-metal is influenced by mr. bungle, though none of them reached the heights of their self-titled.

With tracks like this, they were almost daring people to keep listening. I love it, but I don't blame people if they'd rather listen to bands who aren't actively trying to troll the listener, lol.

Yo I’m so glad I’ve found your channel! Been waiting for someone to react to this specific video. Enthusiastic sub my guy

This is so wonderful! It can be challenging to keep going with our own creative pursuits, but this is definitely an inspiration for my music.

I’m sure it’s been said already, but the singer (Mike Patton) has the largest vocal range in the history of popular music. Larger than Mariah Carey, Axl Rose, etc. Patton has a ton of projects with different styles. Bungle is very wild. One band that you’ve done already that (probably to your surprise) was HUGELY influenced by Patton and Mr. Bungle was Incubus. Brandon Boyd very much copied his voice from Patton. If you listen to “Strip Search” by Patton’s band Faith No More, it’s damn near indistinguishable from an Incubus song in the vocals.

Bro keeps looking at the camera and freaking me out. Im dying laughing

Don't you look at me is from the film Blue Velvet, Dennis hoppers character

Mr. Bungle is an acquired taste. :)

FIRE 🔥🔥🔥

This was the best most legit reaction I have seen for a while. Love the song myself.

Diving into the deep parts of bungle lol

Its a miracle that this got recorded at such high quality by a huge record label Warner bros.. Epic in fact.. This sounds so fuckun good man.

Mr.Bungle is not for everyone...hell, it's not for most people, and this is one of their better songs.

Swear to god best show I’ve ever been to was Primus’ New Years show in ‘92 when Mr Bungle opened. This video kinda sums it up.

I LOL’D! “White people” He’s right though. I like it 🤷‍♂️

Mr. Bungle is one of my favorite bands - don't listen to all the people saying you need to try another song, you probably won't like it - but I still enjoyed watching this reaction because you're honest and it was funny watching someone just get confused by this. Good to see an honest reaction channel, do your thing your way!

Thanks for the laugh! I totally get your white people comment. All through the late 80s and the 90s, there was a lot of music like this in the "alt" scene. Ive thought that it could be the result of musicians tired of the standards of music, lyrics and subject matter. My dad had a friend that literall had/has an entire house full of...room after room...vinyl of every imaginable kind of music. He exposed me to so much different music when I was young, and was always making mix tapes for my dad that I copy. On one hand, I had the music he had shared, but also listened to the 80s rock, soul, blues, jazz and classical music ( I was in band through school and into college). By the time I got out of high school, I was sick of all the same types of music that were popular....so this, "white guy" 😉, ended up seeking out something...anything new or different. Between weed, drugs, and being in my 20s and the scenes in the 90s, Id listen to anything...including this type of chaotic, distorted, performance music. There were musicians experimenting with every sort of music, and believe it or not, here in austin, everyone...."black, white, brown and yellow guys" got in on the scene... Rock, jazz, rap, hip hop, even classical, electronica, industrial, dance and even traditional musics from around the world. Parties and raves with crazy line ups of diverging musics being mixed and shared...a dj, a classical pianist, a tabla player, a steel guitarist a tuba...all on stage jamming. It was chaos and order blended into one, great musicians looking for new sounds beats and rhythms.

MR. BUNGLE

It's always so funny watching them before they listen, not knowing what they are getting into.

Bungle has issued you a musical challenge... are you ready move beyond musical genres and verse chorus verse ? BTW Bungle can be super funky, check out Girls of Porn. They do some ‘ normal songs on their album California, its much more accessible for a Bungle novice Yes Bungle influenced loaaaaaads of bands.

They do it live awesome as well

This is really hard to understand the first time! It might sound like a complicated mess, but there are so many layers to each of their songs. Even though you're not feeling it, I really recommend you keep trying - the "California" album is MUCH easier to listen to and brilliantly written

Ya can't help but enjoy the rollercoaster ride...

Not that I have Anything against Rebecca Black as a person, but you saying that you would Willingly listen to thousand times more of Mr.Bungle to avoid ever hearing Friday earned this video a Like from me XDD I mean, the amount of horror in your face at some points said it all - this song and video is the representation of True Horror, as in a person slowly looses his mind along to an avant-garde metal piece. Truly exceptional. Oh, and to add something others havent mentioned yet about Slipknot being influenced by this band, Slipknots First "first" album was released in 1996, and In it, as well as all the demos and whatevers surrounding it, were quite noticeable traces of avant-garde experiments, and some of them were quite cool, but overall the album was Nowhere near as Wild as the debut of Mr. Bungle. Couple that with the fact the "original" 9 members hadnt been even assembled yet (that happened in 1998, I believe) to explain that originally the influence was equally represented through both music and theatrics. Not that the influence couldnt be spotted anywhere else once the Group of people we associate with the Real Slipknot was in full force - the self titled album has a number of fast paced dives into unhinged frustrations that turn into psychotic eruptions of taunts to push the willingly hysterical adrenaline factory one more time, and those alone feel like an evolution of the idea Mr. Bungle presented before, so rather than copy them, Slipknot finally found a way to show their influence by Complimenting their idols.

They just released a new album one of the most hardcore thrash metal albums I've ever heard they have the guitarist from anthrax and drummer from slayer now

Bassplayer is Trevor Dunn ... also often plays with John Zorn

Mr. Bungle - "Girls Of Porn"

Okay so let's talk about bungle of the jungle Jethro Tull Lynn Anderson . 70s top three funk jazz Rock. Locomotive breath , bungle in the jungle , thick as a brick he plays with a flute and a few other wind instruments. 👍

It´s a twisted sense of dark humor! Mr Bungle is awfuly awesome! This guys influenced the whole nu metal shit! This is the true new metal and it´s not even metal!! Genious!

This is from their first album, and most of the songs on this album are similar and can be immature and overstay their welcome, and this is coming from a huge Mr. Bungle fan. There are about 3 songs that are worth reacting to from this album: Carousel Stubb (A Dub) Dead Goon That’s about it. There are other good songs but they’re sprinkled with nonsensical loud yelling and people banging on doors and other weird shit that doesn’t work for me. The next 2 albums are some of the best albums of all time in my opinion. If you thought ‘wtf is this’, then the stuff in their 2nd album would blow your mind, but in a good way. Gone is the immaturity and obnoxious attitude, and what’s replaced is some really brilliant avant-garde music that makes you think and respect just how talented these guys are, because the shit they do is not easy or simple, especially live.

Hahaha, I can't stop laughing at your reaction. You liked it then? lol! Your face when Mike Patton started his screeching! I was already laughing before I watched your video because I knew what to expect with Mr Bungle and couldn't wait to see your reaction and you didn't disappoint, lol! I love Mike Patton in Faith No More and maybe one or two Mr Bungle songs but most of his stuff with the latter is just too much of a screeching, tuneless racket for my taste! He has a great voice when he sings properly! Very versatile.

Reaction starting at 3:00 wins the internet reactions. Everyone can stop now.

Yes! Yes! Yes! I LOVE Mr bungle. Love is a fist...ars moriendi...desert search for techno ALAH...particular favs...ya gotta hit em up!

All over the place, comes to mind

Also, if you want to see what Patton has been able to do with his career, check out this live performance of his cover album of Italian songs--he is a kid from California. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/oLqDpJZylZqbYKs.html

Got you perfectly - not your taste! ;) True, true..But, check this out - remember I told you that Faith No More are extremely versatile?... Well, Mr.Bungle are - versatile beyond the expectaton! :))) The thing is: among 100 songs, you just had to pick this one!...Rookies don`t like it, fans like it, so what.:) It`s just one of their manifestations, one of many (crazy) others.:) If FNM changes genres on different songs, MR.B changes bunch of them - within a single song! I mean, it`s wild, it crazy...you only had a bad luck picking a song that`s out of your taste on this one.:) Yea, they goof themselves, they look like a mad-men on stage, but that`s just an acting to animate audience, did it in the early career. ;) They make fun on human taboos and such, sex, death, violence, science, philosophy, giving it a less credit they had gotten in modern term of sense, you know - purging through fire, through an (organised!) musical chaos, with a circus iconography, since - the world is like a circus, dah! :D They take and give a lot amount of energy to people, it`s intense, but at the end - it`s somehow catharsic. :) Therefore - the carnival, the masks!:) And you`re wrong, dude - they did it waaaaay before Slipknot, in the early 90`s.:) In fact, Slipknot stealed this right from them! In a cheap way, if you ask me...Because, this band....is composed of a musical geniuses on their instruments, including the phenomenal singer Mike Patton! :) You said it yourself - the bass line! Now, imagine some musical genre you like, lets say, funk, soul, hip-hop-groovalistic-psychedelic shit.:) What, you think Mr.Bungle didn`t handle it? WrOng! D Yes, they did...they did>:)))) So, instead of reacting to My ass...blahblah, maybe even Jizzlober over there, right...? I could only agree with visitor E.T. who suggested you to listen to the other song of Mr. Bungle called - Squeeze Me Macaroni ! :D And you`ll get just what you needed in here. Some of the craziest funk melodies I ever heard, yeah - with brass and everything, and the fastest rapping also, dude !:D Go there, go...with the flow. :D Not a wrong band, wrong song, that`s all. Try me and E.T.`s choice! Don`t give up on them, they are fantastic, you`ll see....And if you want a pure funk-soul gold, listen to theirs "The Girls of Porn"...Yeah, what a title! :)) But the bass, pop-singing, groovy disco-drums....surprisingly `normally structured` song of theirs...You`ll be wondering is it the same band in the first place!..... They`re magical! Believe! :D

I love Mr. Bungle and FNM, and everything Patton does but you're right on.. Bungle isn't supposed to be good listening. It's more like listening to the Olympics. Most of the sports I don't give 2 shits about... But I appreciate the athleticism.

You crack me up

To FNM fans it not that obscure AND, they just released new material a few weeks ago. This wasn't your white parents music, even the Pope hated us metalheads. We were deranged, baby eating devil worshipers who played Bob Hope records backwards to summon demons. The honesty is appreciated, it's an acquired taste.

Nice video, you should react to Merry go bye bye by mr bungle also its a more chill song

at 5:20 you had me laughing pretty damn hard

Don't trip. Mr. Bungle is awesome. You should check out at least one song from each of their albums. They are all wildly different. You should at least give their song Retrovertigo a listen

Absolutely they influenced them and many others

Not sure if it's been mentioned but this wasn't an official video. It was a fan made video. The only official video made at the time was for Quote Unquote. Give that a try sometime.

This is a powerful song, unfortunately it is not the best choice to attract new listeners. It is an acquired taste so to speak, and requires knowledge of Mike Patton's entire portfolio to appreciate it at the very least.

I think Mr. Bungle requires a bit of context to get into. You should check out other artists that blend genres to create chaos and humor the way Mr. Bungle do. Check out Frank Zappa/Mothers of Invention, French TV, and Captian Beefheart.

Who ever reccomdnxdd you this is trying to get you to go wtf lol this is the most aggressive bungle song you should start off something like pink cigarette then make your way to stubb a dubb

you got Bungrolled

If you find something bizarre about this song, let me know.... 1 fucking thing!

Try something off their third album. It is completely different from the style you hear here. Maybe Sweet Charity or Air Conditioned Nightmare.

Do not listen to Disco Volante, this album is almost mainstream in comparison. California is much more accessible to the masses. They just put out an amazing thrash album though.

Mr bungle is a pleb filter

everyone has this reaction at first. but if you keep at it with this band you understand why theyre stellar. not the best song too. that ending is rough lol try carousel

Redundant

LMBO!! That 'LOOK' on your face on the 3:00 & 10:45 mark is ME, WTH am i listening to & WHY!! Im actually sit through this for 3 $!! What have 'I' let myself become LMBO! "White People=CRAZY" when looking at this LMBO. I'm really thinking 'This' whole Band idea is Mike Pattons way of 'Letting' the steam off !! Like we know some like to go out and do NORAMAL CHIT, Fishing, Kayaking, B.B.Qing, Go to the Gym etc. to relieve stress, MAYBE this is 'Pattons Way' of doing THAT.. I.D.K. But NEVER could i say, being a 'White Dude', "Yeah I Enjoy This" NAH!! It's painful LMBO. SO ima skip out on Mr. BUNGHOLEs B.S. lol.. YOU make that $ Jat Rah lol... On a side note, "The Bands Got FANS"!! Freaking CRAZY WORLD we in!! Looking at the other comments, it still gonna be 'Hard' to go listen to Mr. B's other songs lol..

I’ve liked Bungle for 20+ years. If you want to think “white people” then I’m fine with that.

Something about a black man w a Friend's hat reviewing Mike Patton is funny. Just realize you are listening to the greatest vocalist ever. White people music... nah, people with an ear for talent music. Yes, good call on the Slipknot reference. 100% on the money.

They asked Frank Zappa to manage them, he said no. Then later said it was the biggest mistake of his career. Mike Patton is one of the greatest vocalists of our time his range is insane. You probably would know him from his most known song Epic with Faith no more. One if the first rap/rock crossovers to be done.

Everybody always wants channels to react to this one just to fuck with them it seems like. It sucks because this is a really tough intro to the band and tends to turn people off. There are some way more accessible songs on California that you might actually like. Still weird but way more listenable. I would go with Retrovertigo or Air Conditioned Nightmare. If that doesn't work for you, just stick with the Faith No More or maybe try some Tomahawk.

I just subscribed to your channel and you have to give Mr. Bungle another try. This was the wrong song to start off on. They have better songs than this one.

I agree with you- this stuff isn't music. I have no idea what it is, actually.

They sound like a knock off of Primus. Listen to them My name is mudd

slipknot is a total rip off, and korn and so on...

Do your homework man.

Not for me, sorry.

No to Mr bungle , I am a massive FNM fan but no to bungle .

I think Patton always plays with great musicians, but I don't like the music timbrally. And your white people comment...heh. In a similar realm, but more accessible, try out some Ween!

It's like someone said, "Hey Slipknot, do it like this...but be good."

Big nope. Music requires rhythm and melody. It started out not bad, then turned to shyt...if that's what they're looking for, then they succeeded.
