I think Kevins an INTP with a knack for creative endeavours. I've watched a few interviews with him (and also listened to loveless every night for the past 4 years lol) and the way he speaks and explains how he developed his guitar technique sounds very Ti to me. Has that crazy scientist vibe. The Ne is def there but wheres the Fi? Apart from singing obout romance a lot he seems to have spent his life obsessed with figuring out the depths of what a guitar can sound like. Taking what was and restructuring it while adding his own flavor to it. I'm not saying an Fi-dom couldn't do this but that sounds like the epitomy of Ti. Also from what I can see he keeps to himself and has seemingly stayed in his 80/90's shoegaze bubble his entire life in a hermit like state creating new sounds and trying to top his previous work. Seems a lot like a Ti-Si loop.
Biography
Kevin Patrick Shields (born 21 May 1963) is an Irish musician, singer-songwriter, composer, and producer, best known as the vocalist and guitarist of the band My Bloody Valentine. They would become extremely influential on the evolution of alternative rock with their two studio albums Isn't Anything (1988) and Loveless (1991), both of which pioneered a subgenre known as shoegazing. Shields's texturised guitar sound and his experimentation with his guitars' tremolo systems resulted in the creation of the "glide guitar" technique, which became a recognisable aspect of My Bloody Valentine's sound, along with his meticulous production techniques.
