FAITH NO MORE: Pro-Shot Footage Of OPTIMUS ALIVE! 10 Performance Available

July 12, 2010

Professionally filmed video footage of FAITH NO MORE's performance at the Optimus Alive! 10 festival — which took place July 8-9, 2010 at Passeio Marítimo de Algés in Oeiras, Portugal — can be viewed at this location (the footage originally aired on the Portuguese cable television channel SIC Radical). A couple of the clips are available below.

FAITH NO MORE frontman Mike Patton recently spoke with ArtistDirect.com about reuniting with the band after 12 years and what their music means to him now. Patton said, "To be honest, I never thought that I would ever revisit that stuff again. After some reflection and speaking with the guys, I realized, 'Well, wait a minute. I'm not embarrassed about it (laughs). It's still good music! Is there a way that we can still pull it off and do it justice?' So we rehearsed! When we rehearsed, I realized this is good and I feel great about it."

Patton added that the public's interest in seeing the band again after more than a decade was "staggering" to him, explaining, "Basically, there's more interest in us now than when we were an active band, which is really strange, kind of haunting and maybe a bit morbid, but it also inspired us."

FAITH NO MORE officially reunited last year and played several European shows and festivals.

The band played at the Coachella Valley Music & Arts Festival on April 17 in Indio, California.
