I think all Glice was trying to say is that there are very few Throbbing Gristle/Devo/Sonic Youth-level "original" acts that are likely to crop up at any given time, because most musicians either have no originality or aren't interested in creating a brand new art form, and just want to rock out.
I think the phrase "suspension of intellect" is pretty apt when speaking of enjoying the music of bands like The Stooges or Blue Cheer, both of whom I love. That Randy Holden solo LP is pretty "stoopid," but it's also one of the most perfect heavy rock LPs I have ever heard. Not one second of wasted space on the whole thing.
