Episode 3: Steve Albini

Yes, Steve Albini is known for being outspoken and opinionated and "controversial," but behind the mythical personality that's been created for him by the media, he's just a great engineer with a passion for making records. This interview was conducted at Albini's Electrical Audio in 2012. Enjoy!

This seems like “the realist” interview of Steve I’ve heard yet. He’s always real but he seems more comfortable/natural here than in other interviews.
RIP to a real force/freak of nature.

This interview was totally what I needed. I love how it’s just two engineers shooting from the hip.

The right answer to previous question is 'The Model' covered by Big Black. The original song is by Kraftwerk.
