My advice is to start picking one of the three instruments first, it takes years to properly play one of these.

try to learn as much theory on it by watching videos about it, this will still not get you far though. You will need practice, asks friends or family to lend you their instruments. Also maybe they can even assist you playing as a form of teaching.

A paid teacher is not the only way, but if you want to reach a high level I think it is important to learn from an experienced musician because the instruments you picked are very technical (especially the violin takes a long time IMO).

Even self teaching piano can take months or years with daily practice.

Without teachers it is still possible of course, if you are driven enough to practice multiple times a week (best is daily but that is not always possible). Try out lesson books or find any programs online that focus on all the fundamental aspects of teaching your desired instrument.

Yes, Faith No More is exactly what you are looking for. The Real Thing is a perfect album. You may be referring to Funk Metal which came out around that time (early 90's).

Fishbone, Living Color, Primus, Bad Brains (most songs are punk but some are funk metal), Suicidal Tendencies (skater punk with funk songs), Infectious Grooves.

Personally one of my favorite genres of the late 80's early 90's.
