Van Der Graaf Generator

Profile:
Formed in the UK, 1967 by Peter Hammill, Chris Judge Smith and (now deceased) Nick Pearne. After a period of activity during the 1970s, the band broke up (although not for the first time) in 1978, seemingly for good. The "classic" line-up of Hammill, Guy Evans, Hugh Banton and David Jackson, reformed the band again in 2004 and have since released a new studio album "Present". Since September 2006 Van Der Graaf Generator worked as trio, without David Jackson.

Very very influential band to the punk movement, which it predated for at least a decade, thanks to its nihillistic lyrics and their sometimes avant-garde and dissonant jamming, not to menyion the high esteem it was regarded by Johnny Lydon of the Sex Pistols, among other mavericks of the punk scene...
