This was a close one. I chose Ian But the late great Greg Sage comes in a VERY close second. Both of these guys are highly influencial and both make well thought out and intense music. Very close though.

It's not a case of me wanting them humiliated , it's just compared to real bands as opposed to spoonfed MTV shite it's inevitable.

Lets just say it's a bit like pairing off your 90 year old great grandmother against Mike Tyson in his prime.
