Atticus Posted July 7, 2007 Share Posted July 7, 2007 I think you're a defeatist and you are destined not to enjoy music. If you wait for other people to thrust music under your nose, you'll be listening to nothing but crap for a long while, because that's what gets thrust at us. Music is not a spectator sport. Quote:2) Brian Townsend or Patrik Antonius? Antonius attracts more poon, sbrugby gets to flip for half a million with an overlay... thinking... thinking... poon wins. Quote:I liked some songs on Exit the Dragon by Urge Overkill a lot, do they suck that bad? Yeah, they do. You probably don't even like those songs you think you like.

Wendy Posted July 7, 2007 Share Posted July 7, 2007 I found a link to that forum at Stereogum last night, and reading it took a bit of time, but hey, I didn't need to sleep. If it was boring I would have stopped. In fact, it was very interesting and candid. He is well spoken and outspoken. It was kind of like he got to create his own interview (even though he probably would not have started an "ask me" thread had his identity not been outed by the charity snafu), but the fact that he answered most of the questions asked of him was pretty impressive. Even had a few Wilco/Tweedy comments, with Albini being a Chicagoan and all. So I wonder if we have any micro-celebrities hiding out here at VC? AtticusPoongoogler? Who ARE you?

Welsh Rich Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 Woah! Excellent, cheers for the link. I'm a huge Albini fan... would love the opportunity to interview him some time...Interesting his take on the In Utero thing, we've always been led to believe that the record company influenced the mix but he suggests Nirvana make the final call...

Dreamin' Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 I found a link to that forum at Stereogum last nightI guess it was posted on MetaFilter as well. (I don't need to read MeFi anymore because VC is like a MetaFilterFilter.) It's too bad, because the interlopers sort of killed the thread. Speaking of Steve Albini and boards quoting other boards, Jake posted this on GloNo a few months ago. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Oil Can Boyd Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 Albini does an "Ask Me Anything" on reddit. Some interesting stuff mixed in there: http://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/td90c/i_am_steve_albini_ask_me_anything/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
