much as i love Mr Svenonious and his emissions I don't think he has enough laughter lines to be a rock god, not really dionysian/odin oriented enough. Too articulate, a true hero no doubt but an auslander in the "rock god" domain (and gratefully so I'd imagine)
(curses, no umlaut!)
I do suspect that one of the legacies of the nineties really is that the generic notion of a rock god is somewhat redundant unless indulged in with a hefty dose of irony (ie the darkness/dragonforce/kid rock).
I'd say Beth Ditto is doing a pretty decent job of contemporising rock godliness these days but, y'know, a lot's riding on how that next album comes off.
