Everyone keeps mentioning the same albums --Surfer Rosa, Rid Of Me, In Utero-- and that's OK, I love 'em, but they need to dig deeper.

In the process of making a record, you hear it so many times that the charms of even the best of them can wear off through over-exposure. On rare occasions, records I've worked on have withstood this scrutiny and ended up being personal favorites. Nina Nastasia's Dogs is a record so simultaneously unassuming and grandiose that I can't really describe it, except in terms that would make it (and me) sound silly. Of the couple thousand records I've been involved with, this is one of my favourites, and one that I'm proud to be associated with.

What timing, huh. This issue has been out for just a few days - Steve may have had a chance to see it.

Four people messaged me within fifteen minutes about this (while I was asleep) and I slagged the guy off as a cunt almost any chance I got, which speaks volumes to how important he is. Cunt though he may have been, he was one of the few people in the music industry that you can call a genius, and he's worked his magic on so many absolutely glorious records that he'll live forever.

Listened to The Rude Gesture: A Pictorial History, Uranus, and At Action Park in tribute.

As usual, death sure shifts units. To All Trains isn't even out yet and it's already sold out at the Touch & Go webstore:

Is the "How I Wrote Elastic Man" a cover of the Fall tune, or an original?

Yes, Albini's death is quite a shock. I met him at the merch table after one of his earlier band's gigs some time ago. Despite the image some have of him, he was really nice. What a career, both with his own music and his production work for others. He'll definitely be missed.
