That's definitely true. He's the noise man, the experimenter. On the other hand I feel Thurston has a better grasp of melody and straightforward rock energy. Together they're a perfect match. But, then again, it's not so simple, there's a lot of interplay there and changing of 'roles'. Kim has a specific energy and sensuality and it really shines through the songs she sings.
