Ex-FAITH NO MORE Singer MIKE PATTON Guests On New BJÖRK CD

Former FAITH NO MORE and current FANTOMAS singer Mike Patton is among the guests appearing on BJÖRK's upcoming album, "Medulla", due August 31 via Elektra. Patton reportedly contributes his voice to flesh out song elements normally handled by musical instruments. "Instruments are so over," Björk told Rolling Stone. "I think this was probably the most intuitive album I've done. I had to use ingredients that I trusted, like my voice, my muscles, my bones."

"Medulla" is the follow-up to 2001's "Vespertine", which debuted at No. 19 on The Billboard 200 and has sold 368,000 copies in the United States, according to Nielsen SoundScan.
