Stripsearch
Faith No More · Album Of The Year
the heat is gone
time is gone.
F for fake
I feel no wrong
hide no wrong.
Love this place
the lights.
Under this face
so dry.
Only way to change
give yourself away.
Don't be ashamed
next in line.
Close one eye
just walk by.
In these days
I'm breathing stone
crying alone.
I'll win this race
I'll leave alone
arrive alone.
Love this place
the lights.
Under this face
so dry.
Stripped to the bone
I did no wrong.
Truth is my name
give yourself away.
F for fake
Give yourself away...
Stripsearch
Faith No More's "Stripsearch" stands as a defining track from their 1990 masterpiece, *Angel Dust*. The song captures the band's signature fusion of heavy metal, funk, and experimental rock, showcasing their ability to blend aggressive instrumentation with intricate vocal delivery. Released during a period of significant artistic evolution, the recording highlights the group's departure from traditional hard rock structures in favor of a more complex, genre-defying sound. The track remains a staple of their live performances, celebrated for its dynamic shifts and the distinctive interplay between the rhythm section and guitar work. As part of a critically acclaimed album that solidified their status in alternative music, "Stripsearch" exemplifies the creative risk-taking that characterized the band's mid-career output.
