Forming in the wake of Mike Patton's first band Faith No More, and named in honour of the anti-hero of a series of legendary French crime novels, Fantômas are mavericks in every sense of the word.
Beginning their career with a fierce and slightly nerve shredding rendition of T Rex's 'Chariot Choogle', Fantômas have done everything from making music for cartoons to penning what must be the only 75 minute noise rock sound.
