My favorite ones that provide inspiration (I consider myself a late bloomer too):

Rolf Julius, a brilliant sound artist, one of the pioneers, first started incorporating sound into his work around the age of 40. His first recordings were self-released on cassette at the age of 41.



My friend and collaborator Hellmut Neidhardt, of the band Multer, who first began releasing solo and collab music very prolifically in his 40s and 50s as N.

If he hadn't been in Come this would be true, but he and Thalia made remarkable guitar records that I still go back to today for inspiration on how songs should be structured and how guitars should sound.

I do love Incredible Love tho. Just don't wanna overlook his work in an already overlooked band. Come wouldn't have been Come without him. Not even close.

Acetone - they had a pseudo rockabilly thing going, then released Cindy and If You Only Knew (very good) then the covers EP (tragically out of print still) and then nailed it perfectly with the last 2, S/T and York Blvd.

The vinyl only live thing that came out recently was recorded on the only tour I saw them on, and it's outta sight.

Disagree on If You Only Knew, I think it's amazing, but I would still call them late bloomers cuz Cindy I just cannot listen to.

Agree on Pulp.

Will add Ministry, though I happen to also like the new wave stuff.
