Just like the folks who prefer David Lee Roth's Van Halen over Sammy Hagar's, some fans like the Chuck Mosely version of Faith No More over FNM's Mike Patton-fronted successor. With Mosely at the vocal helm, the San Francisco band's funk-metal rap felt fresher and less calculated. After hitting locally with a self-titled 1985 debut album, Faith No More were picked up by Slash Records for this Steve Berlin/Matt Wallace-produced follow-up. Introduce Yourself reprises its predecessor's anthemic "We Care a Lot," which remained a live staple throughout the band's career. Alongside it are other seminal FNM tracks such as "Anne's Song" and "Chinese Arithmetic," wherein the band's signature sound already lurks thanks to Roddy Bottum's classically nuanced keyboards and Jim Martin's crunchy guitar work. Still, it's Mosely's casual punk-ass attitude that carries the show. "Can I get a transfer, man?" he whines at the start of "Death March." "Ninety-five cents?! Fuck you, I'll skate to the beach and I'll look better getting there!" And while time has not been kind to some of the more generic tracks here, a band such as Limp Bizkit could still learn a lot from Introduce Yourself. The fact that it clocks in at a mere 38 minutes means you have that much more time to spin it again.
