In the guise of a white panther - the evil XTRMNTR fatally wounds Momus who is then taken to the cathedral of sound, 'guarded' by the hermit Shields,who is still sleeping off a dodgy pie from '92.
Tricksta-MC Paul Barman, having lulled Emperor Albarn ( HISS!)into a false sense of smugass complacency calls in a favour:' Daniel-san, you owe me, automate the limey !' - the honourbound dj rebuilds Momus with an 8track cartridge of Kool Moe Dee and betamax porno .
Momus is carried to the peak of Mt. Fuji where the Powers That Be send the ALL MOTHER (Kym Marsh) to breathe life into your fallen hero and suckle he at her breast. Nourished, he awakes to a choir of castrato cyborgs and vows vengence -
' the pierrot pranksta,gangsta with a clavicord, come Daemon,fall beneath my poison sword ...'
geordie...If this didn't remind me so much of 'prog rock', I'd call it beautiful.

Predictions:
* Fusion of Hip Hop and Country and Western is waaaaay overdue
* A fusion of Emo and Nu-Metal is both strangely implausable AND inevitable.
* Lo-Fi stalwarts like GBV with processed vocals, while Britney goes vocally al dente. This will be the death knells for BOTH acts.
* Triumph the Insult Dogs "Songs in the Key of Poop" sells 3,000,000 copies, starts a new genre of obnoxious animal puppets. Damon Albarn is thus pushed back into the limelight.
* Country and Western flava Boy Bands.

R&B moving back away from processed vocals to increasingly smooth early 90s production

Sterling was right here, too: See Amerie, Nivea, etc.

Oh, speaking of Bollywood...we need a big Bhangra Indie band to pump some life back into the Gavin airplay charts in America.
Get some of that Ravi Shankar+RHCP Shank action goin' on.

Following the new Boo Radley's compilation, the steady emergence of Noise, the rising popularity of Hal and the Magic Numbers, there will be another Sixties revival, similar to Britpop but this time based in America and hinging on a more psychedelic movement.
