Just heard the news about Mike Kelley. Another phenomenal, gifted artist gone way too soon.
Destroy All Monsters were among the first
punk/noise/garage bands I fell in love with as a kid in the 70's. Really opened my mind to all the subversive edges and the underground that were bubbling up back then. Loved Niagara. She was another major influence who blasted through the rainbows and sparkly disco tube tops and inspired me to believe that girls could rock and hold their own with the boys.
Mike was truly gifted. Amazing point-of-view and vision. So dead-on and brilliant. You are such an inspiration. Your work had such an impact on us (and will continue to do so for centuries to come). Rest well, Mike. You will not be forgotten x0x0x
This is one of my favorite songs --
