(urth) Wolfe in music?

[Stuart Hamm]

Wolfe and Malmsteen...that's rich...I connected Wolfe and Fripp....I thought that was a better mix...but you are correct , I am certain there is no difference between Yngwie Malmsteen and Robert Fripp to Our Hero ...!!!

Sharing this for the fun of it:  there's an image drawn from and a direct quote from Wolfe's short story 'The Detective of Dreams' in the opening lines of a new song from one of my bands:

On that note:  does anyone know of Wolfe's works being referenced in song anywhere?  I think I once saw that there was a metal band called Carnifex.  Pretty cool.  

My stuff's more punk rock than metal, so I'm happy to bring Wolfe into that world - I think he's probably too readily associated with metal or prog rock, especially BotNS.  Actually, I saw a comment in a thread once that mentioned that Wolfe was good *despite* being a bit Yngwie Malmsteen. Ha!

Of course, the really hilarious thing is that I highly doubt Gene himself is into anything remotely like all that!  (Nor was Tolkien, who found his way into Led Zeppelin and others.)
