Do you find it ironic that the Raging Wrath demo *the OG one* is what helped get Patton in Faith No More because apparently Jim Martin was obsessed with the tape and that helped lead to MPs audition for FNM when they needed a new singer

MY ANSWER

I’m not sure what would be ironic about that, but I never understood the mindset. Patton wasn’t exactly “singing” on that OG demo, certainly nothing like he would end up doing with his other band. So I don’t know why they thought he would be a good choice. But perhaps you mean it’s ironic that Jim Martin, the guy who essentially got Patton the gig, was eventually fired for basically being too metal. That IS ironic.
