But I like that band - and I'm not at all trying to degrade the musicianship of Scelsi or those who can play what he wrote.
Naw, I know. Not trying to bash post-rock which I have nothing really against.

Just thought I'd throw it out, though. Has to take a great deal of imagination to get those kinds of sounds out of acoustic instruments as it's not typically their nature. When you can sit in one place, and have the resonance relayed back to you, it's easy to hone it. When you're sitting at a piece of note paper with a piano, you have to draw simply from the sounds in your head.

Terence Hill, as recently confirmed during an interview to an Italian TV talk-show, was offered the role but rejected it because he considered it "too violent". Dustin Hoffman and John Travolta declined the role for the same reason. When Al Pacino was considered for the role of John Rambo, he turned it down when his request that Rambo be more of a madman was rejected.
Al Pacino = God
