Mr.Bungle - Quote Unquote (Travolta) Reaction

[@marielaconstanzacatrileoco1872]

Hail Mr. Bungle!!!

[@DeutscheDemokratischeRepublik]

Mr bungle for life

[@magnusr9156]

Mr. Bungle is the way into my heart, I love them to death. And people who share my passion are my friends for life!

[@sussychachi]

Hail Hydra.

[@ruinsane100]

That Mr. Bungle album remains in my Top 10 favorite album of all time. I still vividly remember hearing it for the first time and being completely blown away. One of a kind.

[@bradpirochta9293]

The long exhale... "I need time to process this." Yep.

[@ruinsane100]

Oh, no, it gets weirder. Trust me.

[@williammelear2906]

What a proper representation of John Travolta. Lol

[@Garrysullivanjones]

William Melear Travolta himself said the gimp mask is one from his personal collection

[@chessbrainiac]

This song is a good representation of the first album, but not of their 2nd and 3rd albums as those are completely different. One thing remains though, and that's the mix of styles. The first album has more funkmetal than the other two though. From the first album (which I like most of their albums) I recommend Squeeze me macaroni (and get a lyric sheet and TRY to sing along...!), Carousel, Stub A Dub, My Ass is on fire, The Girls of Porn or Dead Goon. From their 2nd album my favorite is Desert Search for Techno Allah and from their 3rd album I have a soft spot for Golem II: The Bionic Vapor Boy. Now...if you want to go COMPLETELY weirdo...3 of the members of Mr. Bungle...guitarist Trey Spruance, bassist Trevor Dunn and drummer Danny Heifetz formed a band called Secret Chiefs 3. Check out some of their stuff! But beware...this is completely weird music, and makes even Mr. Bungle sound like a nice commercial band.

[@magnusr9156]

Hello mate. Norwegian or danish? I listened to Mr. Bungle before getting on the internet and thought that I am the only one in the world listening to this weird music. And then the internet happened and I found that I am not alone. And you, my friend, is right up my alley. I have never heard the music of Secret Chiefs, but I have two of Pattons weird soloalbums. Don't you just LOVE music that not everybody gets. There is pop, dance music, rock and such things that a "everybody" likes, but Mr Bungle, Fantomas and such alike, you either hate it or love it!. Music that challenge you! I love it!

[@chessbrainiac]

I am norwegian. I've also heard those two soloalbums from Patton. I remember listening to them for the first time with a friend of mine who shares my taste for the strange and the weird. We just had to laugh. The really fun part though, is playing those albums to people who only like the most commercial modern pop music! I am normally not sadistic by any means, but I just love to see their faces when they are forced to listening to something you know they hate immensly! My revenge for the monotonous techno music some of them have tortured me with...! I really recommend listening to Secret Chiefs 3 and a band called Estradasphere. They were on the same label, a label created by Trey Spruance to release all those weird projects he liked. Estradasphere once toured throughout USA with a norwegian band named Farmers Market. That's another band you should check out. Estradasphere and Farmers Market are actually insanely good musicians. Their music is quite virtuosic at times. And they also mix styles a lot, mostly jazz and various ethnic styles.

[@Selfaggrandized]

@@chessbrainiac if you like strange music, I suggest giving Igorrr a listen :)

[@TheHaggis0451]

Never thought hearing my name in a video would make me so joyous, keep it up Ruben :) P.s. I think some of the stuff from the California album is an easier introduction into the band, mainly Retrovertigo which A7X covered is an easier first listen for this band.

[@RubenBuijs]

So glad you enjoyed it :D

[@thing12games44]

That “W...T...F...” look on your face through out the video. 😂 Bungle fans know it well because we were all there at one point. It’s unlike most other things out there and just melts your bean the first time you hear it. Add the video in and 🤯

[@avichaiitzhaki7857]

I wish I could re-experience the same reaction you made after you'd heard the main riff of the song at 1:50

[@rokkkrinn2793]

Thus is the first song off their first album. Mike, Danny,Trey and Trevor really bring the heat. The brass section are incredible also.

[@tomh3999]

And for Mr. Bungle, begin with Sweet Charity or Retrovertigo.

[@DeutscheDemokratischeRepublik]

Retrovertigo is good tho

[@Liz-cmc313]

Tom Hodberg ...I love the California album. Been a fan since it came out.

[@callmewaves1160]

Lol those songs aren't really a gauge on all of the wonder of Mr.Bungle though let's be honest.

[@BetaMentra]

Alana Robertson You are so right

[@richardroberson2564]

Alana Robertson Its more like if you are willing to go all in and go straight into the raw bungle sound. Or if you want to have a grasp of the band before that. Most people today would never listen to stuff like this. But they would listen to sweet charity

[@arthurbradley8754]

This is maybe their heaviest song- i think you’d enjoy some of the stuff on “California” a lot more

[@NeroSoneca]

Pink Cigarrete,Retrovertigo.Some amazing fan-made videos for those two.

[@fuzzydunlop7928]

CHAKA CHAKA CHAKA CHAKA CHAKA CHAKA CHAKA CHAKA CHAKA CHAKA CHAKA CHAKA CHAKA CHAKA CHAKA CHAKA CHAKA CHAKA CHAKA CHAKA CHAKA CHAKA CHAKA CHAKA CHAKA CHAKA CHAKA CHAKA CHAKA CHAKA CHAKA CHAKA CHAKA CHAKA CHAKA CHAKA CHAKA CHAKA CHAKA CHAKA CHAKA CHAKA CHAKA CHAKA CHAKA CHAKA CHAKA CHAKA CHAKA CHAKA CHAKA CHAKACHAKA CHAKA CHAKA CHAKA CHAKA CHAKA CHAKA CHAKA CHAKA CHAKA CHAKA CHAKA CHAKA

[@chucklangdale8507]

Aw man...this is the cut version!

[@solitude731]

Oh man! I'm so glad you finally did this! Just a little background on this song. This songs original name was "Travolta". The whole thing is about how John Travolta, a Scientologist, is a shapeshifting clown. After the band was sued, they changed the name of the song to "Quote Unquote". Yes, this is a weird place to start, but Mr. Bungle is a weird band. You should try out "The Air Conditioned Nightmare" off of their California album next. An Album that caused the band to be sued by the Red Hot Chilli Peppers because they were releasing their "Californiacation" Album the same week which they claimed "Was a rip off of their material". Well, I'll let you decide for yourself who was really in the wrong there. ;) Also man, you should try songs that don't have videos to them.

[@cynthiajones7514]

It was a feud, RHCP never sued Bungle, they did have WB delay their album release date, however and Anthony had Bungle removed from major festivals in Europe and Australia... RHCP or Anthony did try to sue the TV show Califonication with little success LOL

[@callmewaves1160]

Cynthia Jones Kiedis has such a fucking ego honestly.

[@Garrysullivanjones]

Kiedis is a mma trainer at ufc events .

[@dregnar85]

Yessss i love Bungle my favourite of Pattons bands.

[@dregnar85]

I can recite that whole album haha

[@jocelynbunn]

I like anything and everything Patton, and for some reason Mondo Cane is in my top 5 Patton albums! It's him and an orchestra covering 50's and 60's Italian pop songs, and really something special!!

[@TheCallingInSilence]

What an interesting band haha, always meant to check them out but never got around to it. Happy holidays! P.s. More Isis please ;D

[@corrob]

this son is actually very tame compared to the rest of this album :D

[@allenvrabac4827]

Smaller and smaller with Faith No More. Please, make a reaction to that extremely understated song.

[@sitocastro]

Allen Vrabac Great song!

[@JorgeDibildox]

Check out Air-Conditioned Nightmare. Also by Mr.Bungle

[@BlockGlowtshirts]

Carousel is a good one from this album.

[@wmpr88]

Want to see my impression of you during the video? "O_o"

[@Nas_Khan]

CHristmas Treeee!!!!!!!!!!! Love this time of the year

[@williammelear2906]

It's like an acid trip gone bad. Lol

[@user-vj1pq6uz8m]

The first song from the first Incubus album is a mix of that and Epic, what was that song called? Redefine?

[@arthurbradley8754]

THANK YOU RUBEN!

[@RubenBuijs]

You're welcome Arthur :D

[@Liz-cmc313]

Been a fan of Mr. Bungle since the California album. Not too many get Patton's music. Either you love it or you don't. This song is awesome 🤘

[@michaeldrennan9932]

Mike Patton really laying into John Travolta!!🤣🤣

[@ElGik1]

I was expecting this reaction since 1856!!

[@PaulTheSkeptic]

There's so much more though. You've got to hears Girls of Porn, Egg, My Ass is on Fire, Squeeze me Macaroni. You've got to give it time to let the music get into your ears. Then you can really appreciate the funkiness. Put it on your headphone medium. Whatever that may be.

[@sixteennumberthree5544]

¡¡¡ThE saMe FUcKin' DifferENce!!

[@ceramiclol4305]

I would seriously suggest the song Mr Nice guy for an early Bungle sound, Carry stress in the jaw for mid Bungle sound and Air conditioned nightmare for late bungle sound, give them a go in that order

[@matthewogden6801]

Was there only official video lol

[@trikefearson]

Good ol Mike Patton lol

[@Jeminai77]

definitely try more Bungle. the albums vary in style dramatically. always skilled across all genres. try some other Patton bands like Fantomas and Tomahawk + a collab with Dillinger Escape Plan. similar bands to bungle i would suggest are Idiot Flesh ~ Teen Devil Worshiper. Sleepytime Gorilla Museum ~ 1997 & Donkey-Headed Adversary (my fave band). Estradasphere ~ Hungerstrike (20mins of genius this track)

[@hraefn1821]

Might interest you to know this was Mike Patton's original band. He joined Faith No More as a way to achieve his dream of getting paid to do music...but when they disbanded he quickly resurrected Mr. Bungle. The original intent was to keep his identity a secret and wear a mask so people wouldn't popularize them JUST because of his name being attatched. that idea fell apart though because...well...It's MIKE PATTON. Everyone knows his voice. He also had the bands / side projects, Tomahawk (whose album "anonymous" is nothing but native american songs being covered and is amazing), Peeping Tom, and Fantomas. ALL ARE AMAZING. Also Mr. Bungle is MEANT to invoke insanity as an affliction, phenomenon and occurrence in it's totality. My old psychiatrist was a FAN and he claimed he had found that many people suffering from mental illness CANNOT HANDLE listening to it. Make of that what you will. There are multiple layers. You can listen to it for years and always catch something new. Like it or not, Patton is a genius. X3

[@shovetheleper]

I listen to mr bungle, nomeans no and melvins because they sound like they do. Like the inside of my head sounds. Also, good reaction.

[@LearnToRefine]

Mike Patton dug into his Frank Zappa and Parliament/Funkadelic influences for this one. Different for sure.

[@fuckamericanidiot]

Harmony Wisdom Bungle aren't just Mike Patton's band - he was one of the main contributors stylistically and for songwriting but Trey Spruance the guitarist and Trevor Dunn the bassist were also key contributors and in fact wrote the majority of their excellent lyrics. Patton only wrote the lyrics for a few songs.

[@_pulyx]

haha so many *opens mouth to say something* *doesn't* *nevermind* *what?* Moments

[@donniebrook1095]

Why did you edit the song?

[@tomh3999]

I think Faith No More is a better starter, especially Angel Dust. If you haven't listen to it before.

[@Titoichi1986]

If you're going to start with Patton Do it the hard way and have a listen to Fantômas, as of the song anything from The Director's Cut would be fine (is their less weird album)

[@DeutscheDemokratischeRepublik]

True

[@magnusr9156]

Yes, FNM is the way into Mike Pattons universe, and Angel Dust is a fantastic record. But even there the madness is showing ... Listen to "Crack Hitler" or "Jizzlobber" ... for me fantastic moments in the music history, but for others ,,, maybe madness.

[@ankihansen2489]

No, better listen to The Real Thing.

[@DeutscheDemokratischeRepublik]

Anki Hansen or maybe king for a day fool for a lifetime

[@somebodysomething]

Don't be a Mr bungle kids

[@RetroVertigo_]

I recommend my username........ Retrovertigo by Mr. Bungle

[@adammchugh5456]

You and that puppet, spit.

[@joemeyers8620]

I’ve been into them for about 25 years. I suggest listening without the videos. Try my ass is on fire!

[@tekubus]

What is your native language?

[@peteytwofinger]

such a great shock em video - mr bungle - you either get it , or you are not my people . simply put THE best band . ever . do melt banana bambis dillema , fantomas s/t ,

[@thing12games44]

Pink Cigarette and Retro Vertigo are...easier...listens for a first time. Though if you want something more metal, Love Is A Fist (off this album) is a solid, punchy, banger.

[@durcorr]

Try some Primus, any song from Antipop ;)

[@rolandweigert5169]

no from frizzle fry

[@polarnightaudio]

Rishloo - Just a Ride! Trust me man, you'll love there guys. Also react to more Karnivool! I'd say New Day live at the Forum.

[@Choco-9s]

Please react to Retrovertigo or Pink Cigarette by them!

[@therealrcg6838]

Those videos weren't made by them. They're fan made

[@mickmcmick8247]

FUCK YEAH!!!!!

[@dontishotto6573]

Their live version WAS 10 times better, btw can u react to dance gavin dance?

[@RhythMassacre]

Maybe Retrovertigo? :D

[@caseyjones9359]

If you dig music similar to this check out Dog Fashion Disco and the many Todd Smith bands. Dark cartoon infused metal

[@Cephalonimbus]

De drie albums van Mr. Bungle zijn elk compleet verschillend; allemaal vreemd, maar voor mij is de derde, California, de beste (ik vind zelf None of them knew they were robots één van hun hoogtepunten... ook Carry stress in the jaw, maar die is nog veel vreemder :P). Quote/Unquote is als je het mij vraagt zeker niet hun beste nummer maar wel het enige nummer met een videoclip, waarschijnlijk omdat de band een contract heeft verkregen vanwege Patton's succes met Faith No More destijds, en Warner Bros. dachten dat ze mee konden liften op het succes van die band. Dit was dus de eerste single... die illusie was al snel verbroken want dit is toch echt iets anders and Epic en veel FNM fans moesten er niets van hebben, maar WB heeft ze desondanks hun gang laten gaan tot de band uit elkaar ging. Of je het goed vindt of niet, het is sowieso een leuk weetje dat zo'n bizarre band een relatief lange en succesvolle carrière heeft gehad op een mainstream label als WB want dat gebeurt bijna nooit.

[@fuzzydunlop7928]

AVE UNTO BUNGLE

[@nickcolbert9615]

Well that was a thing 😳. Faith No More + Primus + lots of drugs = ?!

[@callmewaves1160]

Nick Colbert Mr.Bungle were actually anti-drug. Specially Mike Patton. He hates that stereotypical sex, drugs and rock n roll type rockstar

[@chessbrainiac]

The name of the song is Quote Unquote....not Travolta!

[@Niamorg1007]

Technically the song was originally called Travolta and was renamed into Quote Unquote because of Travolta himself.

[@chessbrainiac]

Ah! I didn't know that actually! Thanks for educating me!

[@Niamorg1007]

You're very welcome!

[@jamieperdue8663]

I definitely like Faith no more better. Check out Tomahawk or Phantomas, other Mike Patton bands if you dare.

[@DeutscheDemokratischeRepublik]

Faith no more smaller and smaller pls

[@avilesfelipe]

You and the puppet look the same at 1:50 🙄
