Faith No More-Angel Dust (1992)

Encouraged by the success of their second full-length album, "The Real Thing" (1989), the American band Faith No More delivered another creative peak with "Angel Dust", released in 1992. Their style blends hard rock with pop sensibilities and a modern heavy rock sound, drawing on influences from indie rock to rap. Standout tracks on this new album include the hit "Midlife Crisis", the rap-metal anthem "Everything's Ruined", and the subversive "Crack Hitler" and "Land of Sunshine". In a short time, this album achieved triple gold status in the North American, Canadian, and British markets, and along with its successor, "King For A Day...Fool for A Lifetime" (1995), it marked Faith No More's most brilliant and successful period.
