Thanks for Neil Young, Joni Mitchell and sweet, sweet marijuana.

And Arcade Fire and The Band amongst others. But not Jim Carrey and Celine Dion.
Especially not Celine Dion. You must all pay.

And Arcade Fire
I once saw these guys live at a music festival (the Big Day Out) a couple years ago, it was the worst sounding crap ever. It was as if you were being raped by accordions and violins.
At one point during the gig two percussionists were literally having a duel with drumsticks, fucking Christ.

I haven't a clue about their live gigs, but I imagine they got that under control because they've been doing well enough to tour.
Their two studio albums are expansive, baroque and sombre things of beauty; I think you should maybe have a gander at some of the songs in Funeral before writing them off completely.

EvaUnit has managed this long without developing anything resembling taste so I can't imagine your internet post is going provide the spark needed for his personal renaissance.
