Faith No More was originally formed as Sharp Young Men in 1979 by Bay Area, California musicians bassist Billy Gould, drummer Mike "Puffy" Bordin, vocalist Mike "The Man" Morris, and keyboardist Wade Worthington. Later on they changed their name to Faith No Man.
Wade Worthington was replaced by keyboardist Roddy Bottum, whom Gould had been friends with since the age of 10, in 1981. After Mike "The Man" Morris was ousted the group began calling themselves Faith No More, to accentuate the fact that "The Man" was "No More."
Faith No More went through a series of singers including a brief stint with Courtney Love. Billy Gould recalled of the Hole vocalist in the Nineties, "She was really good because she was annoying as hell and really aggressive."
