Fans of the most eccentric Mike Patton projects should be excited at this piece of news: a release date has finally been set for Patton's Mondo Cane, the Faith No More singer's long-delayed album of Italian pop songs.
We recently told you a bit about the project, which has very little web presence. And now, after much anticipation and speculation amongst Patton fans, a May 4 release date for the debut album has been set.
According to a press release, the album was recorded during a series of performances in Europe, which included a show in an outdoor northern Italian piazza. The disc features traditional Italian pop songs, as well as a cover of Ennio Morricone's "Deep Down," and has Patton backed with a 30-piece orchestra and choir.
Patton, currently rockin' the Faith No More reunion tour, has had this CD in the works for some time, but this is the first time a release date for the anticipated project has been confirmed.
The self-titled Mondo Cane album will be come out on Ipecac Records.

7. "Scalinatella"
