even if all he did was two nuns and a pack mule, i'd think he was pretty awesome. however, the engineering on PJ Harvey's album Rid of Me is legendary to me.

Best Albini quote I've seen: "I don't give two splats of an old negro junkie's vomit for your politico-philosophical treatises, kiddies. I like noise. I like big-ass vicious noise that makes my head spin. I wanna feel it whipping through me like a fucking jolt. We're so dilapidated and crushed by our pathetic existence we need it like a fix."

In Utero is the most incendiary album of all time. Yes, the two best songs on the album, Heart-Shaped Box and All Apologies, were remixed by Scott Litt. Litt also made the bass and vocals more audible. Albini was disappointed that Nirvana decided to finish with another engineer, but he was satisfied with the final sound. Basically, everybody involved with the album is a genius. Steve Albini ups what the know is fuck.

Oh sickening_wreck, very apt name btw. To think that Nirvana is in anyway representative of Albini is ignorant. After Albini recorded the In Utero sessions, the band hired Scott Litt to undo the damage. But don't let facts get in the way of your "argument", dear.

the best artists are usually the ones that stay out of the mainstream/spotlight so just because lots of people don't come to this page and write on this wall doesn't mean shit. there are plenty of people who respect albini, especially artists/people in the industry. also, why do people visit artists pages to trash them??? have some class people! p.s. he is coming to my school in two weeks... i think that's pretty awesome!

It's been over a full calender year since I made my comment, and yet it still appears in the shoutbox. You can say what you like about how there's something to his music that I don't get, but given that almost literally no one cares enough about Albini to say anything about him, it must just be you.

clearing up my comment below, he is more of an asshole than an idiot, he made some good music.

i think its funny how steve albini is a pretencious little idiot who only didn't get the shit kicked out of him becuase henry rollins felt sorry for him.

I think WearShades88 is onto something here. Incubus definitely have a musical prowess which is lacked by Albini, can you guyz not see this?

preco wrote:
WearShades you certainly know bullshit about Albini. Those who do can laugh into your face. Your tastes are so specific and yet close to mainstream I do not expect you to accept stuff he does. Albini is a genius, a founder of a huge scene and a person who connected a shitload of artists through his recording work. The funny fact is that he prefers NOT to influence the sound of a band anyhow so whoever criticised his work in fact should rather address the band/interpret self.
