Hunter S. Thompson meets Mary Poppins.
For a moment I thought you were suggesting he was bringing out his own brand of perfume.
If he did, I imagine it'd be in a container shaped like a bullet and it'd smell of laudanum with a subtle hint of ether.
And yes, I'm taking the p*ss on both counts, I think.

I liked his own "the Pet Shop Boys meet Motörhead."
(paraphrasing; can't seem to find it now)

When I saw the title of the thread I assumed it was a new perfume, a rather pungent mix of Marlboro, leather and dry ice.

yeah,
i've met
Eldritch...
i also thought it was something to with perfume -it would be subtly fragrant and evoke a thousand memories, ultimately inexpensive but rare, and a few drops would have to last you a lifetime. it would of course come in a very small bottle.*

If we're talking perfume, there's that burnt-plastic smell of the organic solvents used in the manufacture of certain medicinal chemicals.

He looks like Walter White and sings like Rob Halford. Essence.

I've met him too.
The essence is maybe 50% "intellectual art-rock hooligan" and 50% "chancer can't believe his luck that his scheme to avoid ever having to get a proper job actually worked".

michael. he's been "not getting a proper job" for a very long time. if studying the least-useful chinese language isn't a deliberate massive skive then what is ?

Addition to my original trio.
Meets Rob Hubbard.
Imagine a song like Flood 2. Made before Flood 2. And better than Flood 2. On a Commodore 64. And 17 minutes long.
This is only half of it.

For the impatient, it gets Flood 2-esque around the 02:35 mark, although I encourage you wait.
Von wasn't the only sly, electro-brutalist up North in shades and a groovy shirt in the 80's.

I also met Eldritch, during his blonde-hair, white bikers' jacket phase. He said nine words to me.
