On its list of the 12 greatest supergroups in hard rock and heavy metal history, Revolver Magazine included the quartet among the most influential all-star acts the genre has ever produced.
Fronted by Mike Patton of Faith No More and Mr. Bungle on vocals, the lineup also featured Slayer's Dave Lombardo on drums, Buzz Osborne on guitar and Trevor Dunn of Mr. Bungle and Tomahawk on bass.
As for the band's name, the members chose one inspired by a fictional character.

Before the turn of the new millennium, the band released its self-titled debut album in 1999.
What made the album unique was that, instead of traditional song names, the tracks were simply titled "Page 1," "Page 2," and so on.
Fantômas released three more albums, including the critically acclaimed 2001 album, The Director's Cut which featured the band's reinterpretations of theme songs from classic horror and crime films including The Godfather, Rosemary's Baby, Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me and The Omen.
Before Fantômas was officially formed, Patton sent a set of demos to Sepultura's Igor Cavalera in hopes of forming a band with him.
Instead, he recommended Dave Lombardo, who ultimately completed the band's original lineup.
