Q: What is the greatest band of all time that employs all 3 instrument of these types: acoustic instruments(violin, piano, organ, drums), analog(electic guitar, bass), AND digital(Synth, drum machine, turntables)?
Sorry.... but can you define what it means to be inconsistent style-wise for me? I do not get what this statement is implying... are you saying, if somebody is always trying new things, that they are inconsistant? like let's say if somebody releases 3 albums... the first one is a rock album, the second one is a jazz album, and the third one is a country album... would you consider this stylistic change inconsistent?

This statement has me stumped... I just do not get it... please explain what you mean by this for me....

ah, but what you don't understand is that inconsistent does not mean bad, necessarily. It's a mistake a lot of critics make. Not playing a consistent style is very much inconsistency, but it's not something that hinders anybody or anything.

Inconsistent = not consistent. Meaning, it can totally mean a good thing. As some bands (*cough*Opeth*cough*) are a little too 'consistent'.

Al Pacino = God
