Steve Albini was incredibly genuine in an industry that often celebrates phonies and mediocrity. So sad he's no longer with us but I'm grateful for all the wonderful music & wisdom he gave us. RIP

bands need to stop signing to labels and just open patreons and do live shows, maybe patreon exclusive access to streamed live shows as well as mini streamer shows where the band talks to the subscribers and maybe do some unplugged songs

Nobody cares about Hollywood. Nobody cares about major labels. Nobody cares about mainstream radio crap. Steve was the real deal and knew the score. Hollywood is over. Thank the Lord.

Most people care about mainstream music/film (by definition)

Great assessment of How It Was vs. How It Is. Excruciating to listen to, because he's reading a prepared text word-for-word -- I finally had to skip ahead a few minutes -- but he's right, in that musicians are better off today than under the Label Regime. They still don't make much money, but for different reasons, and all the BS in the middle is pretty much gone. Maybe that's good!

It actually sounds more natural if you listen at 1.5X speed.

probably haven't looked or listened hard enough. it's important not to idolize people. They are humans at the end of the day.

@@gengraded I still think Prince was batshit crazy in a number of other ways. Just has never heard of him being physically abusive except in the movie Purple Rain (which he didn't write). But I went digging and I guess Sinead O' Connor said they had a serious pillow fight that escalated into him chasing her around his driveway.

Yes the flexibility of spreading your music on the Internet is great but super boring. Same thing with super convenient laptop recording system and the living room studio. super boring. Not all the records labels in the era of big money was bad. The ability for a band to have big budget to hire great recording engineer, producer and pro mastring technician and work in big studio with great acoustics with a album for up to 2 years sometimes meant incredible albums. If your main taste of music is punk rock or indy maybe today is better than the 80,s 90,s.
