FAITH NO MORE / Album Of The Year [1997]

Faith No More's final album before an 18 year hiatus, 1997's Album Of The Year, is generally known as the band's weakest work with vocalist Mike Patton. 
Critics, fans and even the band members have all spoken of their displeasure with the record.  It's dragged down by a dry, dull sounding mix, lack of input from half the band and just an all around nagging feeling of repeating watered down versions of their back catalogue.  There's a few songs scattered throughout the mix that are particularly excellent but still not enough to make a great album.  Less than a year after the album's release, Faith No More called it quits for the day.
