How unlucky can one man be?

So I guess that's it, huh? We got, what, four people and that's the entire thread.

Alright, that fucking crazy cunt who stabbed his mother(?) Zappa signed him in the 60s. He likely had the ole schizophrenia.

>>69255546
yeah I do
>>69255550
what? who?

and that radiohead are shit, it's almost derogatory

>>69255568
are you in the right place hun

>>69255567
I think his name was Wild Man Fisher. His debut album is literally tmr but weirder and before tmr.

Jim Morrison? Maybe just bi-polar.

>>69255588
I think you might be confusing him with Jim Gordon who stabbed his mother and also had schizophrenia. He was a session drummer and also played in Derek and the Dominoes and Traffic. He was good as well.

>>69255588
Oh no, just looked it up a Fischer attacked his mother as well. I'd never heard that one.

>>69255609
No look up wild man Fischer.

>>69255609
No he is right. Wild Man Fischer

>>69255588
Is there, like, a non-american equivalent of that guy (and TMR for that matter)? Either with or without the mental problems.

Elliott Smith? Maybe just bi-polar.

Bumppity

>>69255649
Not sure, he seems to be a one of type of guy

>>69256222
Doesn't need to be EXACTLY the same, otherwise it'd be a ripoff. I think >>69255290 comes close at his most chaotic moments

>>69255651
Just depression and addiction. Addiction more than anything else. Which most people think he always was one, but he didn't start doing drugs until the 2000's. All his early records were just writing about the heroin epidemic that was localized throughout the pacific northwest at that time. He wrote songs about what he saw.

Yeh but Syd seems so much more chill. Though I know that a schizophrenics often have ups and downs. It's really sad when a great artist falls under the grip of it, whether it's through being genetically predisposed or through triggering it with drugs. Either way it's a sad thing and I wouldn't wish it on even the worst artists. I do wish people would stop romanticizing it, too often do I hear people talk about how cool it was that syd took a bunch of acid and "went crazy"

>>69256359
Romanticising mental disorders (and often claiming to have one) will never not be en vogue. It's the last resort for someone who wants to feel special, and wanting to feel special gets you desperate pretty quick.

That said, I'm interested in musicians (artists in general, really) with mental disorders because their art is the product of a mind that simply doesn't (cannot) work in the same way the average mind, no matter how brilliant or versatile, can. That's just a level of creativity that no one can reach regardless of talent or skill. Not saying it's better or somehow more special, it's just different. That's what I'm interested in. Probably why I like outsider music and art brut so much.

>>69256418
This sums up my feelings

>>69255609
Also played on Pet Sounds and SMiLE

>>69255348
According to his sister, he didn't have any mental disorders.

>>69255302
Mike Love is crazy too. I know he's got a reputation of jelous asshole here but that's not his only side:

The way he acted on the live shows is weird as fuck. Not to mention his eccentric outfit.

>>69256729
Yeah, she said he may have had aspergers but I think it's rather fair to say that schizophrenia is very likely
