Every Album Ever w/ Mike Mansour & Alex Volz
Music:Music Commentary
This week we discuss legendary recording engineer Steve Albini’s first band, Big Black. If you aren’t familiar with Steve Albini, let’s just say the man is as real as it comes with independent music and has recorded damn near everyone for about 20 bucks per album. Big Black paved the way for noise rock, industrial, and grunge with their ear-piercing, buzz saw guitars, drum machines, and highly controversial lyrical themes. These guys were truly special and hold up well after all these years. However, they might destroy your speakers if you play them too loud, so be careful.
Closing track: “Passing Complexion” from Atomizer (1986)
