Italia - hee hee! The performance of The End of Radio at Touch And Go Records' 25th anniversary fest in 2006 in Chicago is my live music highlight in recent memory. Hating this man is an exercise in abject redundancy, IMHO.

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."
