I agree with Porcupine Tree, Swans and NIN its not that I don't agree with the rest it's that I just don't know.

>>73558157

St. Vincent

xasthur

>>73558336

>>73558233
NIN has Atticus Ross as of last year

>>73558428
nah, more like two people (Jonny and Thom)
>>73558650
I don't think a band that improvises as much stuff as KC can be considered one guy

>>73558157
not basically; literally

Pretty much all of them. 90% of successful bands are just the creative output of one person. Bouncing ideas back and forth organically is fucking difficult.

>>73558527
not a band. She just has a backing band for live shows

>>73558114
they're pointing at us

SMA
SHI

UMP
KIN

Yes, Ian Anderson wrote the material, but without Martin Barre on guitar and John Evans on keys etc. they wouldn't have been half the band they were.

Outkast

City & Colour

>>73558102
not even really basically, it just is openly him
like nobody debates about the role of the other guys kevin parker makes everything and then they play it live with him

i feel like your phrasing implies there has to be some debate about it

>>73558248
>The Flaming Lips

Gorillaz :^)

Because at no time in KC's history was Fripp the sole curator of the sound of an album. People like Belew, Lake, Bruford, etc. may not have stuck with the band throughout it's entire history, but they all had a big part to play in how the band sounded when they were in it.
