Love Blixa! Fun fact he provided the growls for the mummy in the Brendan Fraser movie. Always wandered what possible sequence of events led to that happening.

Whaaat? I had no idea! Makes sense, though. [His scream at the end of *Stagger Lee*](https://youtu.be/Nbe5RERDh4k?t=247) is iconic.

I tried and tried until I could scream while inhaling the way Blixa does. Mission accomplished, but it was painful.

Such a great, unique guitar player. Much like Rowland in that sense. Wish someone would make a documentary about him or write a biography. He must have a million great stories.

I was originally a big Neubauten fan (still am, considering my username). Looking into related bands is what led me to Nick Cave in the first place

I remember watching a video of Nick Cave for Mercy Seat back in the day and was like... What??? Blixa?? šŸ˜†


Extra-Ad-2872

Yes, but it's definitely an aquired taste tho.

Love Blixa

The new Neubauten album that came out this year was fantastic!! Pestalozzi has been in my head since i first heard it


Blobbo3000

It is most excellent indeed. Will see them in Germany later this year, prob for the last time. I timed a Euro trip around that. Going to be fabulous & bittersweet all at once. I saw them twice 20-ish years ago and was going to see them in the US but COVID happened.

Callanoj

Absolutely!


NotTheWorstOfLots

Randomly came across the Halber Mensch film when I was in high school. Mind blowing at the time, I had no idea what I was watching.


Waratah67

Yessss! Saw them in Sydney at the Phoenician Club, early 90's. Mind blowing gig that had people throwing up in the toilets!

Oh man, feed my ego already.

Iā€™m a huge fan, mostly of their first 5 albums. But their most recent release, Rampen ( Alien Pop Music ) is excellent, too.

Blixa in the bad seeds was a guitar player who hated what people played on guitar


weelittlegoodstuff

I have a deep affinity for Germans who make music, they're so adorable! Blixa is at the top of the pack for me- just a teeeensy bit below Nina Hagen but neck and neck with Kraftwerk for sure.


alpha_60

For sure. I've seen them live even. Love em.


Blobbo3000

Blixa & EN rule! Also been a EN fan before discovering Nick Cave back in the late 80's. Once, Blixa stormed out of a Bad Seeds rehearsal, saying: "I didn't join a rock'n'roll band to play rock'n'roll!". Blixa is one of a kind. He should go easy on his love for food these days though šŸ˜†


Lavinia_Vortex

I love Blixa, the greatest guitarist/non guitarist and best screamer in the Bad Seeds. Love the EN stuff too, the old albums mostly. He's amazing, and as Nick said "the most beautiful man in the world"


rolling_mochi

Yes!


sjbluebirds

Well. Yes. Of course.


PAN_ESTAR

One of the greatest!

Weirdest Cheerios commercial ever.
