Way too much material for me to find out on my own.

Answer here.

novelty as in unusual or something new? :)

either way sou should check it out..preferably something
older but it isn't much of a difference really..all i've
heard so far sounded ace! if you like a bit o depressing
music that is.

Without the story, with just the music, he'd be totally
uninteresting, there's a crossdressing old busker downtown
here who out-Jandeks Jandek in every way.

But the story is very cool so Jandek is very cool. ^_^

And the story and the music is like one and the same anyway,
so yeah, he's not a waste of time. An interesting person, I
don't like how my post came across there.

something specific?

music.

1) http://tisue.net/jandek
2) I think Blues Corpse is a good starting
point/album.

I also really like stuff like Telegraph Melt or
Modern Dances, it's pretty fun, but it should only
appeal to fans of The Shaggs or something.
