  • Summary

  • Steve Albini's impact on alternative music is undeniable. From the sheer number of artists he collaborated with to his unwavering defense of fair treatment for musicians, his presence continues to be felt. His anti-capitalist views on the music industry may not have always aligned with everyone's, but his convictions were never in doubt.

    This influence extended to his unique approach to music. Whether working on his own projects or lending his talents to others, he imbued every recording with a distinct character. So recognizable and sought-after was his style that countless engineers and artists have attempted to emulate it, yet none have truly captured its essence. The deceptively simple brilliance behind his approach will be explored in more depth next week.

    This week's episode dives deep into Albini's life, career, ethics, musical philosophy, and of course, the controversies that continue to surround his legacy.
