Faith. No Man. – Quiet In Heaven / Song Of Liberty [7''] (1983, Ministry Of Propaganda Records)

 
Faith. No Man. was formed in late 1982 by Mike "The Man" Morris, Billy Gould, Wade Worthington and Mike Bordin. The band had already been around for nearly a year, and had released a demo tape, under the original name Sharp Young Men. The name Faith. No Man. was a shortened, punctuated version of "Faith In No Man". They recorded a two-song 7" single which was released in the spring of 1983. After the songs were recorded, but before the vinyl was released, keyboardist Wade Worthington left the band and was replaced by Roddy Bottum. In the late August/September 1983 Billy, Mike and Roddy quit the band as a strike out against Mike Morris, since he was the founding member of the band and could not be kicked out. The three of them then reformed as Faith. No More. (later punctuated as Faith No More, to accentuate the fact that "The Man" (Mike Morris) was "no more" part of the band. Faith No More played their first show in early October 1983. 
 
Their only single sounds quite like the first Faith No More album. The all-pervading synth lines are already there, as the jerky, percussive drum'n'bass section and the stark and the mildly psychotic mood. On the mike Mike Morris reminds a little of Jello Biafra. Really not bad. Of course, the whole thing is even rougher than the earliest Faith No More stuff, but that ain't a bad thing. "Song of Liberty" is a real cool song with a lovely bass.
