As Faith No More prepares to unleash its first new album in nearly 20 years, Rhino Records celebrates the back-to-back classic albums that helped establish the band's vital and visceral musical legacy with Deluxe Editions of ‘The Real Thing’ and ‘Angel Dust.’

Each two-disc set includes the original release accompanied by a second disc filled with rarities related to the album.

Like all bands who transcended their time to become cornerstones of an era, Faith No More sounded like nobody else. The group's commercial breakthrough came in 1989 with the release of ‘The Real Thing.’ It was the band's third album, but the first to feature the line-up of Mike Bordin (drums), Roddy Bottum (keyboards), Bill Gould (bass), Jim Martin (guitars), and Mike Patton (vocals).

After extensive touring, the band returned in 1992 with ‘Angel Dust.’ It climbed to #10 on the U.S. album charts and would later be recognized as one of the most influential releases of the era. The album swings between extremes—aggressive and disturbing, but also beautiful and soothing—showing off every facet of the band's quirky eloquence on such diverse tracks as “Midlife Crisis,” “Jizzlobber,” “R.V.” and “Small Victory.”

Among the nine tracks featured on the bonus disc is a mix of “Midlife Crisis” by the band's longtime producer Matt Wallace, a trio of live recordings from a concert in Munich, Germany, as well as covers of the Dead Kennedys' “Let's Lynch The Landlord” and the band's unforget­table take on the Commodores' “Easy.”
