Interview with Steve Albini from Shellac Interview with Steve Albini from Shellac Over the past 20 years, chances are that Chicago musician Steve Albini has produced one of your favorite albums at his recording studio Electrical Audio. There’s also a chance that one of your favorite bands has been influenced by Albini’s work in either the ‘80s punk act Big Black or the current noise rock band Shellac. There’s a case to be made that Albini could very well be the most important living musician today when it comes to the impact he has had on independent music. Whether it’s the work he’s put into various albums or the material of the bands that he’s in, very few can match his resume. At The Met in Pawtucket this Friday, Shellac will be sharing the stage with indie rock artist Shannon Wright and Providence synth-noise makers Minibeast. Ahead of the show, I had a chat with Albini about his opinion on today’s music industry, working on someone else’s album versus Shellac’s, his preference for recording with analog equipment, the bands and musicians he has worked with over the years and what his plans are for the future. Rob Duguay: Over the years you’ve had an interesting outlook on music. You’ve been critical of the ways that major labels treat artists and you’ve taken a very anti-corporate stance on the music industry as a whole. Recently you’ve championed the internet for providing a way for bands and musicians to take out the middle man. Another topic that’s been discussed within the music community is streaming platforms like Spotify offering free listening to the consumer while the artist makes hardly anything off of the streams. What, in your opinion, is the most logical way to solve the problem that these platforms are causing? Steve Albini: I think platforms like Spotify are a short-term bridge to a potential direct interface between bands and their audiences. At the moment, these services require a library of material, hosted by them, which they parcel out to their listeners. This has a number of inefficiencies that the internet, an engine that makes efficiency, will eventually iron out. If you had a means to play anything that’s currently resident on the internet, at any time on any device, then all you would need to make use of it would be a logic system that sorted the options for you. I believe both those developments are inevitable. So my response to the inequities of the current streaming and download platforms is that I don’t worry about them because they’re like the minidisc. They won’t be here long because they’re nobody’s idea of perfect. I didn’t spend a lot of time worrying about the economics of the minidisc either. RD: Being both a producer and a musician, do you ever find a contrast between the two? Would you manage a Shellac album differently than another band’s album or are you fairly methodical with all your projects? SA: They are as different as running a restaurant kitchen and eating a nice meal. I enjoy Shellac for its own experiences, but what I do in the studio for another band is work. I’m trying to satisfy them and make a great record for them. In Shellac, we’re playing our own music to suit ourselves, and it’s a pure pleasure. The technical part of the recording would be similar, but that’s about it. RD: It has been said that you hate using digital recording software. A lot of bands have been using analog to record lately. Do you think there will always be a place for analog recording equipment as more digital devices become available? SA: I have written and spoken extensively about why I remain committed to analog recording, and it would take a lot of time to reiterate all of that here so I’m not going to. The short version is that digital recording leaves no permanent master for the historical future, and analog recording does. I have been informed by music made a long time ago, and I want my clients to have the potential to reach an audience far in the future, since lord knows they aren’t likely to make it big on their first attempt. RD: Shellac describes themselves as a minimalist rock trio. What initially inspired this musical approach following what you did as part of Big Black? SA: We are committed to a small set of core ideas, among them self-sufficiency, support of an independent community of musicians and minimalism. We are interested in seeing what we can wring out of the basic elements of our band, three people, three instruments and the time to use them. Given the range of sound and expression possible with each instrument, it should take the rest of our lives to exhaust the possibilities. RD: You’ve worked with Nirvana on their final album In Utero, the Pixies on Surfer Rosa, Gogol Bordello with Gypsy Punks: Underdog World Strike, The Breeders on numerous albums and even Iggy & The Stooges for their last album, The Weirdness, just to name a few. Out of everyone you’ve made a record with, are there any that stick out in your mind? If so, who? What was the experience like? SA: I have developed long-term relationships and fast friendships with some of the people I’ve worked with and those relationships are much more important to me than the records we make along the way. I’ve worked on many recordings by Neurosis, Nina Nastasia, Silkworm, the Breeders and Will Oldham, and I treasure them all as friends. RD: After the show at The Met on October 21, what do you have planned for the rest of the year? Are there any new projects that you’ll be working on? SA: Shellac is working on new material, as always at a glacial pace. We have a tour of Europe planned for the spring. I’ll be working making records the rest of the time. Not much else to report. No cancer. No jail. Still got my teeth.

  • “Grunge Killed Glam Metal” Narrative by Holly Johnson
    The Interplay of Authority, Masculinity, and Signification in the “Grunge Killed Glam Metal” Narrative by Holly Johnson A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Affairs in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Music and Culture Carleton University Ottawa, Ontario © 2014, Holly Johnson ii Abstract This thesis will deconstruct the "grunge killed '80s metal” narrative, to reveal the idealization by certain critics and musicians of that which is deemed to be authentic, honest, and natural subculture. The central theme is an analysis of the conflicting masculinities of glam metal and grunge music, and how these gender roles are developed and reproduced. I will also demonstrate how, although the idealized authentic subculture is positioned in opposition to the mainstream, it does not in actuality exist outside of the system of commercialism. The problematic nature of this idealization will be examined with regard to the layers of complexity involved in popular rock music genre evolution, involving the inevitable progression from a subculture to the mainstream that occurred with both glam metal and grunge. I will illustrate the ways in which the process of signification functions within rock music to construct masculinities and within subcultures to negotiate authenticity. iii Acknowledgements I would like to thank firstly my academic advisor Dr. William Echard for his continued patience with me during the thesis writing process and for his invaluable guidance. I also would like to send a big thank you to Dr. James Deaville, the head of Music and Culture program, who has given me much assistance along the way.

  • Honeymoon Suite & Prism
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE NOVEMBER 24, 2008 BOULEVARD CASINO PRESENTS HONEYMOON SUITE & PRISM LIVE AT THE RED ROBINSON SHOW THEATRE FRIDAY, JANUARY 23 Formed in 1982 by Johnny Dee and Derry Grehan, Honeymoon Suite have achieved well over a million album sales worldwide. Throughout 1983 and 1984, the band toured across North America releasing their self-titled debut album in June, 1984. The album went Platinum and featured four hit singles: “New Girl Now,” “Burning In Love,” “Wave Babies” and “Stay In The Light.” Their second album, The Big Prize was released in February, 1986 … it also went Platinum and featured four hit singles: “Feel It Again,” “What Does It Take,” “All Along You Knew” and “Bad Attitude” which was featured on the series finale of NBC’s “Miami Vice.” That same year, they won a Juno Award for “Group of the Year.” In 1987, they released their third album, Racing After Midnight … a slightly harder-edged, more guitar- oriented album that spawned a European tour with Status Quo and a headlining tour across Canada. A best-of compilation album was then released in 1989 followed a year later with Monsters Under The Bed which featured the singles, “Say You Don’t Know Me” and “The Road.” In 2001, the band released their first studio album in eleven years, Lemon Tongue. Last year, original members Ray Coburn, Dave Betts and Gary Lalonde returned to the band and just last month, they released their latest album, Clifton Hill. In the late 60s, the punkish Vancouver band "Seeds of Time" formed the basis for what would eventually become Prism.

  • Dr. Richard Brown Faith, Selfhood and the Blues in the Lyrics of Nick Cave
    Student ID: XXXXXX ENGL3372: Dissertation Supervisor: Dr. Richard Brown Faith, Selfhood and the Blues in the Lyrics of Nick Cave Table of Contents Introduction 2 Chapter One – ‘I went on down the road’: Cave and the holy blues 4 Chapter Two – ‘I got the abattoir blues’: Cave and the contemporary 15 Chapter Three – ‘Can you feel my heart beat?’: Cave and redemptive feeling 25 Conclusion 38 Bibliography 39 Appendix 44 Student ID: ENGL3372: Dissertation 12 May 2014 Faith, Selfhood and the Blues in the lyrics of Nick Cave Supervisor: Dr. Richard Brown INTRODUCTION And I only am escaped to tell thee. So runs the epigraph, taken from the Biblical book of Job, to the Australian songwriter Nick Cave’s collected lyrics.1 Using such a quotation invites anyone who listens to Cave’s songs to see them as instructive addresses, a feeling compounded by an on-record intensity matched by few in the history of popular music. From his earliest work in the late 1970s with his bands The Boys Next Door and The Birthday Party up to his most recent releases with long- time collaborators The Bad Seeds, it appears that he is intent on spreading some sort of message. This essay charts how Cave’s songs, which as Robert Eaglestone notes take religion as ‘a primary discourse that structures and shapes others’,2 consistently use the blues as a platform from which to deliver his dispatches. The first chapter draws particularly on recent writing by Andrew Warnes and Adam Gussow to elucidate why Cave’s earlier songs have the blues and his Christian faith dovetailing so frequently.

  • Warten Auf Das Neue Album
    # 2018/01 dschungel https://jungle.world/artikel/2018/01/warten-auf-das-neue-album In diesem Jahr erscheint das neue Album von The Breeders Warten auf das neue Album Von Dierk Saathoff Zehn Jahre sind vergangen, seit The Breeders ihr letztes Album veröffentlicht haben. Nun wurde ein neues für 2018 angekündigt. Die beiden Gitarre spielenden Frauen sahen sich zum Verwechseln ähnlich, auch ihre Singstimmen waren kaum voneinander zu unterscheiden. Der Moderator Conan O’Brien, in dessen Sendung dieser Auftritt 1993 stattfand, hatte die Band anhand ihrer Selbstbeschreibung angekündigt: »Just a bunch of rock chicks who like to play loud guitar music.« Und das taten die Breeders dann auch, vor einer Videoprojektion, die Menschen beim Billard zeigte, spielten sie laute Gitarrenmusik, genauer gesagt den Song »Divine Hammer«, wobei man nicht eindeutig klären kann, ob in dem Stück über einen gigantisch großen Penis oder doch über eine ­reli­giöse Erweckung gesungen wird. Über die Breeders wird durchgängig kolportiert, es handele sich bei ihnen um ein Nebenprojekt der Bassistin der Pixies, Kim Deal. Mit der Verwendung des Wortes »Nebenprojekt« geht eine Abwertung einher, eingefleischte Fans der Pixies reden sich so ein, die Mitglieder ihrer heiligen Band seien auf diese verpflichtet, wenn einer von ihnen noch in einer anderen Band involviert ist, sei das nur eine Spielerei, passiere nur ­nebenbei. Für Kim Deal war es wohl mehr als das: Genervt von den Attitüden des Sängers der Pixies, Frank Black, gründete sie 1989 wohl nicht zufällig eine fast ausschließlich aus Frauen bestehende Band, die Breeders. Auch Tanya Donelli und Josephine Wiggs hatten schon in anderen Bands gespielt und suchten bei den Breeders ein neues Umfeld, um besser das musikalisch verwirklichen zu können, was ihnen vorschwebte.

  • INITIALS C.C. Liner Notes
    Chris Connelly : INITIALS C.C. Out-takes, Rarities and Personal Favourites 1982-2002 vol.1 01. Detestimony – Fini Tribe: This was the “A” side of an EP called “Let the Tribe Grow,” written and recorded when the Fini Tribe was going through great musical changes. We had acquired an Ensoniq ‘Mirage’ sampling keyboard, and as was the same for a lot of bands at the time, it changed everything, opened up a lot of doors, and led us into some very uncharted waters. The actual piece was whittled down from a fifteen-minute opus we had written. I remember being in Philip Pinsky’s bedroom one night with John Vick. Philip’s then-roommate, Lindsay, gave us an old quarter-inch reel of tape he had. On it was a beautiful recording of the church bells you hear on the song; we sampled them and came up with the melody. The EP actually did better than any of us had anticipated and became a sort of hit in the Ibiza clubs at the very advent of the acid house/rave phenomenon. We actually went ahead and re-wrote/re- structured the song for the WaxTrax! Records release (“Make it Internal/Detestimony Revisited”) a couple of years later. 02. Mania – Murder Inc.: Certainly what I feel is the most compelling song on the one and only album released by Murder Inc. The band was basically Killing Joke, minus Jaz Coleman (Killing Joke’s singer), plus me, as well as the original drummer, Paul Fergusson, and newer drummer, Martin Atkins. The sessions took place at Pachyderm Studios in rural Minnesota during September of 1991.
