Our story begins with a poker game gone bad... a lifeless body on the floor, hand still clutching its cards... whacked on the head with a bass guitar. In the background, Mike Patton's haunting film score crescendos over the radio waves as the other two poker players argue over what to do with the body. Incinerator? Garbage disposal? They haven't a clue.

Without a doubt, Derrick Scocchera's short film, A Perfect Place, is a dark comedy, wonderfully directed and acted. But it is Patton's striking...

Seeing fantomas perform woth Terry Bozzio on drums. Best concert in years.
Mike Patton is right next there to the man with the horns.
Anything he does, has this eery touch
