Guitar smashing, yay or nay?

Like, actually exploded? Because that'd be both a waste and INCREDIBLY COOL.

SOMEONE ANSWER THIS FUCKING QUESTION IT'S BEEN BOTHERING ME FOR A YEAR
Thrillho:
I think it depends. I think sometimes, in the passion and heat of the moment, guitar smashing can work. A lot of my songs are laden with feedback and will end with it, and one day I plan on ending my sets with a cover of 'Climbing Up The Walls' by Radiohead. That ends with lots of discordant feedback and noise and I think you could get a lot of discordant noises from breaking your guitar to shit. However, doing it routinely at the end of every show - like Pete Townsend was reduced to doing for a long time - is shit. If it's the emotion and power of the moment, then sure.
....I just realised this thread is a year old, bumped by Johnny C. I've probably already replied saying this exact same thing.

I've only learned about this "resurrecting threads" thing recently. I like it, but this isn't my work.
ALSO: Seriously someone answer me about Rammstein. It's pissing me off.
Thrillho:
I'm pretty sure that Rammstein genuinely do blow up their instruments. I mean they've done crazier shit. They simulate giant, sperming penises, commit buggery and set each other on fire.
Johnny C:
Well, then, my work in this thread is done. I applaud you, Rammstein.
