  • Anyone have a clue about what starts playing 2:00? I find it quite soothing.

  • wow Mickey Spillane (sp) is the only celeb i have met. he lived in murrels inlet south carolina

  • @bootysurgeon Pretty sure Chomsky and Zorn could spell avant-garde, though.

  • This guy may be the quintessential NYC poseur. As many people -- including genuinely great downtown musicians -- mistake Zorn's overweening mediocrities for the avant guard as there are fools who confuse Noam Chomsky with a world-class public intellectual.

  • Listen to the Horikadu podcast. 

  • One of,if not the most Brilliant musician of the 20th century.

  • Proper artist.

  • @CodyRicheson I know about Boredoms, Painkiller (one of my favourtie band), and I know about Sun Ra aswell. Hanatarash is the only one that I havent listened, but I know that its another EYE project.

  • @Speedfreak333, perhaps you would like Boredoms, Painkiller, Hanatarash and Sun Ra as well.
