Faith No More - Sol Invictus (2014-2015)

3/1/15 5:25PM

"Superhero" ..Pretty nice, even though it does resemble a lot of their 90's stuff.




Also the cover art there and posted below.




Odd, almost biblical kind of title. Also the name of a neo-classical band. Anyway, good to finally get some more details on this record. More deets, more bumps of course.

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 10, 2015Sol Invictus, Faith No More’s highly anticipated follow-up to Album of the Year, arrives on May 19 via Reclamation Recordings/Ipecac Recordings.
“What I can say is that I think through our experience as musicians over the years, I think what we’re doing reflects where we’ve gone since we made our last record as Faith No More. I think this kicks things up a notch,” explained Bill Gould in a recent Rolling Stone interview. “And I think there’s parts that are very powerful and there’s parts that have a lot of “space.” Everything we do, with our chemistry, the way we play; it’s always going to sound like us. It’s just what we do, that makes us feel good. “
Sol Invictus was produced by Gould and recorded in the band’s Oakland, Calif. studio.
