Given that name-dropping Killing Joke (esp 'early' Killing Joke) is the
music-wanker equivalent of a triple word score in Scrabble, the poll
question is as follows:
Which artist or band would you name-drop to get the highest possible score
at a music-wanker convention?
Criteria include but are not limited to: lack of attempt at commercial
success / downright self-sabotage, uniqueness, humour, social commentary,
mental illness, artistic pain, substance dependency, early / mysterious /
humorous death, ability to use ancillary wank-terms such as 'musique
concrete', 'the sound of the earth vomiting' and so forth.
I'm going with 'What is Pere Ubu?'
++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Who was "The Lords Of The New Church?"
And for the win, who was "Belfegore?"
