Here's my supergroup. Their music would be a tripped out, ethereal nightmarish mess with an industrial/metal flourish. With each album, new musicians would be brought in to give the band a fresh sound, but the core members would basically stay the same.


Arrangements: Jason Pierce from Spiritualized & Gary Cobain from FSOL.

Vocals: Liz Frazier from the Cocteau Twins
Lisa Gerrard from Dead Can Dance
Nick Cave
Ian Curtis from Joy Division

Sound Effects/Vocal Manipulations - Mike Patton from Faith No More/Mr. Bungle/etc.
Alex Patterson from The Orb

Guitar/Bass - Robert Fripp
Al Jourgenson from Ministry
Tom Araya from Slayer

Keyboards/blips and bloops/mixers- Brian Eno
Keith Emerson from ELP
Richard Dean James from Aphex Twin
Scott Ayers - Tribes of Neurot
That would be pretty wild.

Here's what 10,000 Lakes proposed in the "Weird, Weird Music!" group on Myspace:
"Take Oprah Winfrey, give her a quart of Gatorade and two Advil, have her featured in a Korn song. Then, record fourteen minutes of some business executive trying to convince Les Claypool that grape jelly should be purchased in bulk, to a soundtrack of someone practicing the trumpet. Use some wood spoons and math books as drums in the next few songs, along with some samples of Lou Dobbs, Britney Spears farting Jingle Bells, a Fatboy Slim song that got mixed with a mechanic telling you what's wrong with your car as the vocals, Fabio and Metallica jammin together at a Starbucks in rural Ohio, Spongebob gone gangsta, a short seminar on potato farming, Tony Danza going over his bills, the sound of a guitar with a really long patch cord hooked up to an amp while being flung by a catapult, some toilet paper commercials looped to 1930's jazz, and monkeys trying to use onions as musical instruments. Then at the end, Snoop Dogg gets to rap part of the transcript to last year's State of the Union address while cooking macaroni and cheese."


Do unto others as you would have them do unto you (unless it costs
something).
