As for extremity? Hmm, one person's extreme hell music is another person's "meh". Oh course, there's also extreme tunefulness, quietness etc etc.

I was just thinking the same thing about SPK.
Stalaggh left me cold - the whole 'grainy monochrome concentration camp footage' thing has been done to death, and I don't really see how it can relate to music in 2007.
I found SPK to be much more disturbing.
The guy who killed his mum is dead now. Killed in a car crash earlier this month.
