Peeping Tom is a Mike Patton project by mail (well, more likely email or some sort of FTP/file swap set up). Think the Faith No More era Patton meets Ben Gibbard/Jenny Lewis Postal Service side project. This is probably the most accessible Mike Patton project since his days with Faith No More. Patton swapped files with such artists as Kool Keith, Rahzel, Nora Jones, Dan "The Automater", and Amon Tobin. The resulting tracks are compiled in the album ??Peeping Tom??.
At it's best, ??Peeping Tom?? can sound like a forgotten FNM track, at it's worst, it can have the feel of the oh so many artist team up tracks that are to numerous to name, and un-interesting enough to remember. It's a valid effort with a few good tracks, but not much over all payoff or energy to feel more than a group collaboration minus the cohesion.
