FANTÔMAS, the eclectic supergroup featuring Mike Patton (FAITH NO MORE, TOMAHAWK, PEEPING TOM), Buzz Osborne (MELVINS), Trevor Dunn (MR. BUNGLE, MADLOVE) and Dale Crover (MELVINS, SHRINEBUILDER), release “The Director’s Cut Live: A New Year’s Revolution” on DVD and as a standalone audio download on September 6 via Ipecac Recordings.
Filmed at San Francisco’s Great American Music Hall on December 31, 2008, the DVD features audio commentary by comedian Neil Hamburger.
FANTÔMAS released the studio version of “The Director’s Cut” in July of 2001. The album tackles a collection of beloved and eerie film compositions including Nino Rota’s “The Godfather”, Bernard Herrmann’s “Cape Fear” and Jerry Goldsmith’s “The Omen (Ave Satani)”. Upon its release, Pitchfork said the effort was “as cinematic as its source material” and NME called it “gleeful butchering.”
Two songs featured on “The Director’s Cut Live: A New Year’s Revolution” were not in the original release of “The Director’s Cut”: Al Green’s “Simply Beautiful” and Marc Bolan & T. Rex’s “Chariot Choogle”.
