He is wrong about jazz, too. It doesn't suck (same with Zappa, post-Mothers). I try not to judge him too much on this, but it colors my opinion of his opinions a bit - what musician hates jazz? Then again, I am not a fan of Shellac or his other music, so I am probably missing something. In 10 years I might be telling people how wonderful Shellac is, and it might just click for me - that is the wonderful thing about art. I wish that there was a world where musicians could make great music without having to tour and make money. Some music doesn't need to be structured to be played live. Edited for clarity and I was too harsh.
