Faith No More is an American rock band from San Francisco, California, formed in 1979. The band rose to prominence with the lineup of bassist Billy Gould, drummer Mike Bordin, keyboardist/rhythm guitarist Roddy Bottum, guitarist Jim Martin – who all played on the debut album – and vocalist Mike Patton, who joined in 1988.
Before September 1983, the band performed under the names Sharp Young Men and later Faith. No Man. The band's first two albums, We Care a Lot (1985) and Introduce Yourself (1987), featured singer Chuck Mosley. With Patton's addition, Faith No More broke through with the platinum-selling The Real Thing (1989) and gold-selling Angel Dust (1992). The band recorded hit singles such as "Epic", which reached No. 9 in the U.S., and a cover of the Commodores' "Easy", which was a worldwide hit in Australia and Europe. Martin left the band in 1993. After two temporary replacements, Trey Spruance and Dean Menta, Jon Hudson joined as Faith No More's guitarist in 1996.
The band broke up in 1998 after six albums, but reunited in 2009 to begin The Second Coming Tour before releasing Sol Invictus, their first record in 18 years, in 2015. Faith No More attempted to tour in 2020, which was first derailed by the COVID-19 pandemic and later canceled because of Patton's mental health, resulting in the band's second hiatus. In June 2026, Gould confirmed that Faith No More plans to tour in 2027.
