He did all the orchestral stuff you've heard on VW songs. The elaborate compositions, ornate flourishes, etc. He was the classically-trained musician in a band full of guys who just like to play. For a lot of people, that's what sets the band apart.

I've always been a fan, but I'm not optimistic about what they'll sound like without him. It's still an automatic spin, though.
