Siegbran is a man full of wisdom.

Calum: What do you think of Iannis Xenakis? I think his electroacoustic works like ''La Légende d'Eer'' rock like a motherfucker!

XENAKIS == GOD!!!

"Bach swings, man"

Xenakis does not rock in any way whatsoever, but he is amazing.

Clarke B., Tuesday, 25 June 2002 00:00 (twenty-one years ago) link

Xenakis rocks! And he's amazing!

Please!! At this rate we'll be starting a discussion on the merits of fucking Northside next. Shall we take a trip?

Northside is better than the Beatles!

It's Britpop, but it ROCKS as well. All boxes ticked.

Dodgy and Ocean Colour Scene are way more correct answers than Northern Uproar or Menswear.

I love The Beatles, but they aren't underrated. Not overrated either though - they belong up there.

I bought a single once, I don't remember much about it. Was going to say, they were probably underrated.

Very sad, feel for his family and friends. He obviously enjoyed what he did, so what does it matter what the 'press' or random ILXors thought? The only thing that really matters is what the people in front of the band watching, thought.

RIP

Never heard this band, I think, but someone posted this on Facebook, A Night In Memory Of Jeff Fletcher.
