Influence: Indie rock, psychedelic rock
Since the 1990s, Anton Newcombe has been the only constant member of
the Brian Jonestown Massacre. One reason for that may be Anton's
volatile behavior, paranoia, and addiction to heroin (he's now
reportedly sober) made him a difficult person to work with for most of
his career. But there's a thin line between crazy and genius, and Anton
might have a foot on each side. His psychedelic, experimental music
recalled classic rock of the '60s, and his obsession with cults ended up
doing a weird thing and earning him a cult following of his own.
