You don’t like Steve Albini? You realise he made all of the best albums of the 90’s from
Nirvana to nick cave and he has own band that have been playing for 20 years for the love of it.Their MO is that you can’t tap your foot along to any of their songs and then they fuck around. They play primavera every year for the love of it.
Listen to his band Shellac’s ‘prayer to god’, ‘squirrel song’ ‘dude, incredible’ and ‘end of radio’. Tap your foot. Listen to how much he takes the piss.
He made an entire album about surveyors for god’s sake.
I’m trying here.
