Adult Themes for Voice is an album recorded by Mike Patton (vocalist for Faith No More, Mr. Bungle, Fantômas, Tomahawk, Peeping Tom, etc.) in hotel rooms during a Faith No More tour. It has no music and consists simply of vocal noises by Patton himself. The 34 tracks can't be considered singing in any conventional sense; they are Patton shouting, screaming, clapping, squeaking and moaning.

This unorthodox album has shown Mike Patton's talents as one of the rock's most innovative vocalists.
