Andrew W.K. has done a lot of unusual things in his career -- not everyone can have a Cartoon Network show and be a member of Current 93 (not to mention run a club, release an album of J-pop covers, and publish a book of advice) at the same time.
If W.K.’s aim was to prove once and for all his capabilities beyond the insistent plinking of a single note, then mission accomplished.
