He's into the Velvet Underground, Frank Zappa, The Residents, etc.

for me to call music avant-garde it has to push the limits of what music is in some way, be it through lack of traditional structure, extreme minimalism or other means

Fair enough

ironically enough, placing limits and delineations on what is avant-garde puts you decidedly outside of the avant-garde insofar as that's a word with any historical meaning
