A classic case in point indeed Michael.
I personally hated it at the time, all the tracks sounded like ballads with a very fast drummer, but now I agree the genre had to exist and we could not have carried on without it.

There is invention, occasionally, when new influences are imported. The drum'n'bass scene was new, even though the individual elements weren't.

The thing with the jazz musicians is they ended up only playing to other jazzers.

A thought that the aging major bosses seem to have forgot.
Glad you enjoyed it though Michael, no planning, no script,but yes, a dreadfully long edit!

I take it for what it is. The comments are quite a fun touch, by the way.
However, stylistically I do not believe the band's music represents the future in any shape or form. I don't think the band is limited by chords. Most bands are limited by the instruments they choose to play. So a rock trio will play either this or (going back a bit) powerhouse blues.
My son came back impressed recently by a band called Slang: a drummer/percussionist, a sax player and a bassist that sings. Such a strange combination obliges them to push the limits musically.
On a separate note, music only dies when it disconnects from its audience (jazz being a good example).
