Another one beyond that he means. I get where he's coming from, some bands overuse vocals because they feel like they need the vocalist to be constantly involved; I've seen multiple bands where there's just long stretches of pure instrumentals, and this is usually in bands with no pure vocalist.
Who cares, if the voice is adequate enough

Don't think Ian Curtis played any instruments live
I know the singer/talker/screamer from Slint doesn't play while singing anymore at live performances.

Nope, Brian still plays his guitar on Washer and Don Aman.
Also Ian Curtis and Joy Division are fucking hacks

there are plenty of bands with long instrumentals where the vocalist does nothing
