As reported by NPR, Faith No More has reunited to bring back their epic sound, which teens in the late '80s and early '90s absolutely loved. Some of their original hits from their six solid albums included the singles "Epic" and "We Care A Lot."

The band reunited in 2009 with a tour that included late '90s guitarist Jon Hudson but did not overstay their welcome without new original music to offer their fans, old and new.

Their new album, "Sol Invictus," comes out on May 19 and brings fans the original sound back with an eclectic mix of new music. The album weighs in at 39 minutes, which counters what many bands from the past who've reunited have done, with longer, overcompensating ballads.

This album, as featured in the article, brings together a mix of playfulness and aggression, both aspects diluted into one another so well that it is sometimes hard to distinguish one from the other. The first two singles, titled "Motherf*cker" and "Superhero," speak volumes about the album, which is a throwback to the original aggression of the band, even in the slower ballads.

The band does not shy away from its heavy metal roots though, as evidenced from the track "Cone of Shame." You will even get to hear a track that alternates the dominant sound between acoustic guitar and a distortion-like explosion sound, which carries a heavy metal style tone.

Band bassist Bill Gould spoke with Revolver Magazine about the new album, in reference to him and his bandmates.

"There was a weird caginess they had where they didn't want to just jump in the ring," Gould said. "I started to think we were just doing this for ourselves. Then little by little, they warmed up to it and decided to contribute more."

Gould said his favorite track on the album is the song "Matador."

"Parts of it remind me of the first Siouxsie and the Banshees album," he said. "We used real pianos and that brings this organic quality to it to the music."
