I think he is a genius, though I am not a big fan.

I know exacltly what you mean, I feel that way about several artists (although I am a big Patton fan)

He gets an amen from me! :D

Wolfmother are so fucking overrated...

I don't know...I enjoy all FNM albums very much, but his other projects...average to good stuff, but hey, he's no Frank Zappa.

True dat. If he'd gotten some musical training he might be closer, but as it is he can't touch Frank.

True, but I don't really think he's trying to be. Zappa is undoubtedly a major influence on him though.

He really splits opinion doesn't he.

Some people say that great bands/musicians have to be hated as well as loved...

He sure does!
Seems as though people in the Army Forums are as split in their opinion of him as most I know around here are.

Very true Binnie, one of the things that great musicians seem to do is have lots of passionate fans and critics.
Plus, with the body of work he spits out he's bound to record some garbage mixed in with his great work , à la Zakk Wylde.

As a result of this thread I was cranking FNM all weekend!

"King for a Day" was such a huge impact on a lot of the nu metal bands, although those bands robbed the music of any integrity.

As for Angel Dust, it gets better as time progresses, to these ears at least...
