What I've heard from him is nothing but noise crap, sort of what Aphex Twin and Autechre do from time to time, with the only difference that Aphex and Autechre did in fact recorded several ear candy tunes which I love deeply. Actually early Kraftwerk also falls into that category (noise crap with a few exceptions).

That's what's so nice about this list: the wide spectrum of members and opinions.
Cheers to that!
I like early Kraftwerk and ALL Stockhausen recordings. They may be noisy, but does noise automatically mean crap?
Good point. I recognize that was a sloppy way of putting it. Noise for a few people might be a good thing, for others is not. I respect your taste and opinion. Come to think of it, there is another favorite band of mine that comes up with noisy stuff from time to time: King Crimson, and just like Aphex, Kraftwerk and Autechre, I like them because their songs overwhelmingly exceeds their noisy output, which might be also called songs... but like I said, that's a matter of opinion.
