Musicians and their literature counter part

>tom waits
>thomas pynchon

eminem and james joyce

Suicide
Kafka

dr seuss and david tibet

>dr seuss and david tibet
Not david tibet and John the Apostle...
Though maybe Balance would be more like John the Apostle.

I'd say Tom Waits and Burroughs

grimes and ayn rand

Pynchon is The Residents
Burroughs is Lou Reed

Death in june and karl marx

Wouldn't Tom be Bukowski?

Kendrick Lamar
Adolf Hitler

William Shakespeare

Jeff Mangum

so... who is he?

Jeff Mangum - James Joyce
On Avery Island - Portrait
ITAOTS - Ulysses
Major Organ and the Adding Machine - Finnegans Wake

I'd say Pere Ubu is a mirror of Kafka but Suicide and most No-wave bands seem close to him as well.

Have you read Pynchon?

Daniel Johnston

beyonce and peter sotos

Early Modest Mouse
or
Big Black

>someone who has read/listened to either

Waits is more Bukowski and Burroughs

>homosexual apostate is equivalent to Jesus' beloved Apostle.

Obviously he would be Father John Misty.

Extensively. His unconventionally descriptive writing and obsession with the fringes of lower class society remind me of Tom Waits lyrical style

Slint - Herman Melville

Roger Waters - Orwell

>Kendrick Lamar
I dont know any black writers

Titus Andronicus

Shakespeare and Camus

I bet the only replies are from people who have never read anything by either of them

He'd be Bukowski
Suicide would be Denis Johnson
Slint would be John Berryman

Nick Cave would be Flannery O'Connor
Sonic Youth would be Philip K. Dick or William Burroughs
Wilco would be Raymond Carver
Joanna Newsom would be Yeats
Modest Mouse would be, at least in spirit, Allen Ginsberg or some other beat poet

>Nick Drake/Elliott Smith
>Sylvia Plath

Sufjan Stevens

>Bob Dylan
>Bob Dylan

Wallace hated irony tho
