I can guarantee Albini would be completely washed up if he hadn't been paid millions of dollars by Nirvana. The ironic part about that (and the part everyone forgets) is Kurt wanted Albini but when all was said and done he realized the In Utero album sounded like shit and Nirvana ended up getting the mixing redone by an actual professional.
great engineer. LULZ aka reddit of chans opinions means shit these days

who? LULZ?

Hi Steve
I'm glad people are finally realizing how much of a hack Albini is. All of the studio albums he worked on have the same exact soulless formula.
>Dry sounding production
>Boosted bass
That's literally it. That's every single Steve Albini production
so many L takes in one post
The white Rick Rubin
Him sticking to his guns after all of those years made him based in my book, even if everyone he records ends up sounding like a demo track from the 90s. Anyone else with his reputation would have turned into a snake oil salesman.
By merit of "what is old is new again", we now have a generation of engineers that are unable to operate a tape machine.
My experience with him is from a seminar in the best studio in my country, recording a well-known band - of course, a tape machine had to be lugged over. On many occasions, the band would ask him:
>What do you think?
His response?
>I don't care (I'm not a producer)
Someone should photoshop a deli sandwitch priced exactly like a Big Mac in his hands
>Can't write a decent song to save his life
wrong
>Can't write a decent song to save his life
bait
Albini is undeniably successful. If you don't like the way the mixes sound then that's a bummer. He probably doesn't have the final mix in most records, someone does it after. He has done dozens of decent records like any producer worth his salt.
He is notable for having a strong work ethic. He gets the players to put forth the best performance they can which is one of the most important jobs of a producer. Plus he disavows the goyslop in favor of bread and good cheese. I don't see how you can throw shade at this guy.
woah that's where the Simpsons live
I liked when he called Tyler and Odd Future a bunch of naggers
are we pretending shellac isn't one of the best noise rock bands in existence?
Shellac is just Steve's Jesus Lizard tribute band, he's never had a single original idea in his entire life.

I kinda like that.

This is something that doesn't get mentioned enough as well. Kurt obviously fell for le indie cred hype and then realized Albini wasn't all he's cracked up to be. IIRC he complained the vocals were completely buried in the original Albini mix.
I also don't think In Utero sounds especially well recorded either, although I don't like the album either.
Also Jack Endino is the man Albini thinks that he is.
Kurt didn't know what he wanted in general. It's more likely he got cold feet about rejecting commerciality.
It's worth saying that Albini and Kurt got on well and their sessions were extremely productive, despite those who knew both thinking it would be a complete disaster.
