Faith No More's Future Remains Uncertain Amid Hiatus

Faith No More's future remains uncertain as both keyboardist Roddy Bottum and bassist Bill Gould express their confusion regarding the band's status in recent interviews. Bottum described the current situation as a 'really weird spot,' stating he has no clear insight into what is happening within the band. Gould echoed this sentiment, admitting that he does not have the answers and that the group is on a 'semi-permanent hiatus' following the cancellation of their planned performances due to vocalist Mike Patton's mental health struggles exacerbated by the pandemic. Since their last concert in 2016 and the release of their comeback album 'Sol Invictus' in 2015, the band has not toured, with earlier scheduled dates in 2020 and 2021 scrapped. While Patton has resumed performing with Mr. Bungle, Faith No More's future projects and shows remain unclear, leaving fans in anticipation. Both musicians emphasized their lack of control over the band's direction, indicating a broader uncertainty about their next steps.
