Is Anton a genius? Is he insane? Is he just trying to make a name for himself any way possible? Who knows.
BJM have had a love hate relationship with themselves and their audience for years. Some shows are incredible and others suck. Band members seem to come and go. But what is interesting to me is the amount of spin off bands that BJM has produced. Namely BRMC and the Warlocks. I think their are some others as well.
The doc "Dig" covers the relationship between BJM and the Dandy Warhol's. Its rocky to say the least.
In my opinion BJM are pretty good, but perhaps not ready for major success. In spite of all their efforts they seem to blow it at critical moments in their career. But they do have some great songs...

Anton is Insane. Anton is that friend of yours that chooses not to take his meds. I've seen Anton get beaten up three times in one night. Anton doesn't believe in the holocaust. Anton is Bat Shit Crazy. But yes he just might be a genius if he could get his shit together and stop pissing off his friends.

He is that friend that stop taking his meds and is so full of potential. But its a " thin line between clever and stupid."
