Faith No More’s co-founder, keyboardist, and lyricist Roddy Bottom has said the influential band is on a “semi permanent hiatus.” This is from Roddy’s new Substack newsletter, in which he hopes to exchange ideas with fans as he closes on his upcoming memoir, currently in progress. There has been little information about the future of FNM since they canceled all of their tour dates and festival appearances in 2022, so Mike Patton could focus on his mental health. In late 2022 Patton gave an interview in which he stated he had not spoken to the members of his band since he canceled the dates.
