A resounding yay from me. Keys can add realistic orchestra sounding stuff and real atmosphere

Yes, but timbre and context are very important, obviously.

it would have to as I've let you in my humble home. Devo haters aren't welcome here.

I - naturally - say a goddamn big yes.I also agree that it depends how you use them, they are extremely flexable instruments (musically not physically) and like every other instrument can sounds amazing and can also sound shit.

VT Tone glory...



Or I am quite a fan of the Yamaha CS-01, as it sits in my room and is

A German "industrial pop" band back in the 80's (MP - Martin und der puls) was made up of one man and he gave all his Synths names, the CS-01was called, "Steven"

Say hello to Steven...

Yay to keyboards, nay to Devo - They strive to be clever, and just end up being shit.
