Free Music Review: Tomahawk, not Patton
Hit: 5 Stars

I read every single review of this album on amazon. Mostly, the milder complaints that I saw were "it wasn't what I expected" or it was "not like the other Tomahawk albums". I consider this complaint to be pointless. It's not even a complaint, it's an observation with a personal, annoyed agenda attached to it. Yea its different. Its REALLY different, but do you like it?
Second, the other complaint was not mild, it was forceful and it was always directed at Mike Patton: 'Patton should have stuck to Mr. Bungle' or 'Patton should have made this a different project (because its not like the other Tomahawk albums)'. One thing I found out, which maybe many of you have too is that Duane Denison (guitar player) is most responsible for turning Tomahawk into what it is now through "Anonymous". Denison was touring with Hank Williams III. Denison got curious about Native American Music. Denison did research for a year before coming up with transcriptions, and Stanier and Patton liked Denison's idea. That's how a band works.- MULTIPLE BRAINS INTERACTING AND CONTRIBUTING. Just because Patton is the guy we all know and remember does not mean he's the one calling the shots
Mike Patton has been and continues to be on the forefront of music's "celebrity doing what he/she's not supposed to do" section. You can't find that section in the CD store. Other immediate examples include Miles Davis and Bob Dylan. They both had a tradition in their sound and then changed it by going electric with Bitches Brew and Blonde on Blonde. Guess what? Tons of fans got mad at those two when they made albums that 'weren't like the other ones'. Grow up, get over it and listen with a curious and frightened ear.
And those of you who explored Tomahawk, but found nothing to complain about except Patton, you're worshipping him just as much as his adoring fans do because you can't stop writing about him. And you're not giving credit to the other two in the group for the album's sound.
If you're a fan of many genres, then you're already prepared to hear something different and simply respond to this album's sound. If you're a fan of heavy metal, but not much else, then I would NOT say skip this album. I'd say buy it now (or listen to the songs a few times each on myspace), because these musicians that you love want you to love something outside your genre. They're using their fan base to bring attention to a style outside what is normally published.

For what its worth:

1) I've Never Heard Anything Like This
2) I Love It
3) I'm Doing My Final Undergraduate Thesis On This Album As A Cultural Product

Anonymous Poster

A thirteen-track album that reverentially explores and reinterprets the darker, more recessed ancestral music created by North America's indigenous people, the title reflects the countless individuals who contributed to these songs but went un-credited throughout history.
