Trey Spruance is back in Faith No More for their 2027 return to the stage, which includes stadium shows with System Of A Down in Australia and New Zealand.
A new publicity photograph by Travis Shinn, shared on Tuesday, November 10th, shows guitarist Spruance alongside vocalist Mike Patton, keyboardist Roddy Bottum, bassist Billy Gould and drummer Mike Bordin. Faith No More have also posted the image on their official website above the upcoming tour dates.
Spruance played guitar on 1995’s King For A Day… Fool For A Lifetime, the album behind ‘Digging The Grave’, ‘Evidence’ and ‘Ricochet’. He joined after Jim Martin’s departure, but left before the supporting tour, with Dean Menta taking over on the road.
He also plays with Patton in Mr. Bungle and has made guest appearances with Faith No More since leaving. Jon Hudson, who played on 1997’s Album Of The Year and 2015’s Sol Invictus, does not appear in the new lineup photo.

Faith No More are booked as special guests on the previously announced System Of A Down stadium tour, with shows in Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane before both bands head to Wellington.
The visit will be their first Australian run since Soundwave in 2015, after a planned 2020 return was postponed to 2022 and ultimately cancelled.
Before reaching Australia, the band will play Rio de Janeiro’s Maracanã Stadium on Friday, January 15th, also with System Of A Down. Welcome To Rockville and Sonic Temple appearances follow in May, before a European festival run that includes Rock am Ring, Graspop and Copenhell.
