Steve saying "Gene Simmons cannot fathom the idea that anyone isn't a huge kiss fan" is so funny because it's extremely believable.
Gene Simmons might be the biggest narcissistic on earth.
Thats not me being judgmental either, He has claimed that himself! probably verbatim, third-person phrasing and all, lol.
I imagine the only real huge kiss fans are Kiss themselves.
except Ace...pretty sure Ace hates kiss.😂
Kiss sucks there I said it.
@@LolaandcassidyadventuresI second that. They are ridiculous
@@bidensniffedmetoo1005 Man, I *loved* KISS. Then I turned 12.
@@aceyriot Paul Stanley seems like as big of a narcissist
Steve Albini.What a dude.
RIP
Yeah, came here straight away to watch this when I heard of his death. Very sad
It's so nice to hear Krist laugh.
I was thinking the same thing. He was hilarious when he was in Nirvana.
To be honest, I definitely *do not* dig his politics, which he's made the big focus of his life. But, seeing him relaxed and happy and talking about making art is great! And the one part he starts to talk about taxation, Conan swoops down like a bald eagle and pulls the libertarian talking point out of his hand.
@@DoctorFuriosoI wonder if he’s sad that he’s the lamest member of
My god these comments
He doesn't sound nearly as marose as he used to when he talked about Nirvana. I think it just took him a long time to process.
I love how Albini NEVER addresses the fact that the prank tapes might still be around. Every time Conan mentions it Steve just plain ignores it
I was so impressed with his- aggressive nonchalance (?) towards Conan's mentions, the tapes themselves, or both, or ??? Neither Dave nor Krist ask him any follow up questions, which was like bonus points for Albini.
Están en internet
@@Pategayo pq en español carnal aquí puro inglish
@@gabrieltenorio q ocupen el traductor los chuchetumare
@@TabethaAurochs thats albini for you
Holy smokes. I've never heard anyone do a Kurt impression. Steve nails it. Sounds just like him.
No he doesn't sound just like him
lol he doesn’t sound like him at all, other than Kurt’s shy, reserved stuttering
As a diehard Nirvana fan this interview is SO fun to watch. I love love love these old stories. They were such pranksters lol.
Part 2! Yes ?
I'm not a Nirvana fan but I'm a music nerd so to hear these stories was so cool.
as a solid oak end table, this lamp is so fun to hold.i love love love being a table for this lamp. It's such a bright lamp lol.
@@AnotherOak I am 99% sure that you're Krist Novoselic lmao
I could listen to nirvana stories all day
I love that Conan says Gene deserved it lol
He really does.
@@foxhound13I’m uneducated on KISS and gene, but totally agree for some reason. Why would you say he deserved it?
@@kylenoll123 Conan kind of touched on it. He does not seem to appreciate his life. Absolute greedy person. Will trademark a lot of things to make a buck when he didn’t come up with them. He claims and owns the trademark of literally a bag of money with dollar sign. And has sued a lot of people who make their own. Also tried the trade mark the Devil horns hand gesture but failed because it was created long ago as the American Sign Language 🤟 symbol. And if you read more you would understand how much he doesn’t really seem to have a personality when people have tried to talk to him like a human being but instead he wants to get to the point on more money schemes or ripping off his fans. Really check this dude out. There is a lot of baffling things he has done to make a buck when he doesn’t need to push so hard in his later years.
@@foxhound13wasn’t dio also the first guy to introduce the devil horn thing into the metal scene?
@@kylenoll123 -- because he's an arrogant and rude egomaniac. Look up virtually any interview with him for proof!
Steve's Kurt impression is pretty spot on.
u know the wipers?
if anyone deserves a prank call, it's gene simmons
Conan, Nirvana and Steve Albini. Now that's a good hang.
RIP Steve Albini, one of the greatest to ever engineer a rock record, and a tremendous musician in his own right.
Man... Team Coco and crew really pulling out the stops to do fantastic interviews. Who the hell needs a late night show, anyway? This is way more interesting.
And 1000 times more genuine.

@@robertdouble559to be precise, 898. Prepare, for god sake, study and PREPARE!!!
More and longer please @teamcoco
Steve Albini has such an amazing sense of humor.
It’s a shame he’s gone 😔
-"Why should people care about Steve Albini?"
-"I'm...doing my best. I don't have any particular sales pitch for myself. Just trying to earn an honest living, and do what I can to uphold my end of The Culture"
"A Pure Artist with Integrity"
Thank you for everything, Big Steve💔
Steve is a national treasure. He’s helped create so much art and magic. And he shares his technical knowledge on how he creates. ❤
I didn't know much about him but from the bits I did, I thought of him as a brilliant but difficult, probably unlikeable man. And this and his interview with Andy Richter, I kind of fell in love with Steve.
@@DoctorFuriosoit's probably a combo of gossip from people who didn't like him and exaggeration. If he were that bad, no one would want to work with him
@@DoctorFuriosonah, he’s a great guy. Takes care of his studio staff, clients, kind to new people. Still Answers the phone.
Steve is an audio genius. Most engineers and producers try to capture the sound and music... he was a guy that was able to capture the raw energy of a band.
RIP Steve :(
I'm so happy Conan went to this format. Interviews are more enjoyable for the fans, but the artists themselves.
And it's nice it didn't really focus on Dave Grohl. I like Dave but sometimes he is who the interviewers focus on a lot.
@@FreejackVesa less dave is definitely more
Yep
@@FreejackVesaDave would love that too, to focus on others instead of just him. It all played out perfectly. Good for Conan.
Interview without constant audience cheer-applause-scream is always a plus...
RIP Steve 🥲
RIP Albini🙏🏼
RIP Steve
We'll miss you Steve! RIP
RIP Albini. You were a monster engineer.
You can tell Conan really loves the album and is a genuine fan of Nirvana.
Listened to the whole thing on streaming, gotta say, the entire interview was a huge culture shock in a positive way, like it came so out of the blue and there's just a random 1+ hour discussion between Grohl, Novoselic and friggin Steve Albini? Random but great haha
My feelings precisely!
Not really random, it's press for the 30th anniversary In Utero reissue
@@MajinGoten1 true but Albini has only been talking to some freelancer journalists about working with Nirvana (or anything). The whole year I knew that it's the 30th anniversary but I never expected this to happen this way so it was pretty random to me.
it's nice hearing Krist laugh during these lil stories
Albini's impression of Kurt is amazing.
That Manitoba line just killed me.
I believe he said "Minnetoba." They recorded In Utero in Minnesota.
Naw, everyone knows where Minnesota is. Americans aren't overly educated what provinces are on the Canadian prairies.
If anyone deserves being pranked, it's Gene Simmons!😂
"You're supposed to be the adult in the room" is the most remarkable insight someone ever told a producer.
Hands down one of the best Nirvana interviews of all time! 👏
I've never seen Krist laughing like that 😄
it's so great. so used to him just goofing around and being comic relief in those early days but not laughing at all really, just joking. quite endearing.
The Wipers are an incredible band
RIP Steve 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Such a sudden and tragic loss. RIP Steve! I hope you’re doing you’re impression of Kurt with him somewhere in the ether
Even when Kurt was badmouthing Pearl Jam musically, he'd admit he liked Eddie personally and that he was a very nice guy. Everyone should prank call Gene Simmons at some point.
These guys are giggling like they are 12 years old and I love every second of it!
The only problem with this interview is that is could have been twice as long! So great! Just the fact that Steve Albini turns out to be the king of prank calls is just so amazing.
I love the Melvins & the Wipers
Hi! Nirvana Guitars! Love your videos
There is the whole podcast on audio, but i want a full version on video of all this interview
I think it was the Beatles that said, you can’t always get what you want but there is an octopus’s garden in the sea
Same! I wish all the episodes were available on video, but especially this one.
@@tvviewer4500Dude, that's what KISS sang with the The Wipers, everybody knows that! Pppfftt...
I just made the same comment before I saw yours.
I wonder why Conan just doesn't make the full video available?
It's so much better to watch than to just listen.
Conan asking the hard hitting questions "how long was your ass in fire" 😂
first time I realized that Steve Albini would be able to do a very accurate impression of Kurt talking - - I never noticed how close their speaking voices are (were... RIP Cobain & Albini) before.
That was a good Kurt impression
“…and now Madonna has.” Best joke went right over everyone’s heads. @8:13
I love this stuff. I wish this was a 10 hour episode!
so many comments talking about Steve's Kurt impression, but Dave's Eddie Vedder was pretty on point too
I love that Kurt thought Gene Simmons was a turd
I love that you can sense Conan is a genuine fan like the rest of us, not acting like a host. Prank calling is a lost art, as a child of the 90's before caller I.D. It was as stupid and harmless as it was hilarious and fun. Jerky Boys anyone?
Steve Albini talks about this in his Nardwuar interview. Cool to see this story with more detail!
I can totally hear a confused Eddie Veder on the phone. 🤣🤣
I cannot begin to explain how awesome this segment was and how badly I need to see this entire interview.
Conan and Albini, best crossover everr...
RIP Steve!
Steve and Kurt have VERY similar speaking voices come to think of it.
Steve Albini is the man. You can just go and listen to the albums that he was involved in and hear the greatest versions of all those bands.
Yeah, he just said he turned on the tape recorder and they played. heheh.
R.I.P. legend
You are so missed, Steve. Thank you Conan for this gem... you rule. ❤
Its weird to see Krist laugh like that lmao 4:24
He's so tall and the fact that that's his laugh is 1) amazing and 2) makes no sense to my brain hahaha
And now you can imagine him giggling driving around in a tiny Renault. 😅
Steve Albini laughing his ass off so much he can't finish his own story is a delight to see
Rest well, Steve.
The jab at the Black Crows at 9:34 ! You know them boys are punching the air rn! 😂😂😂
Atomizer was the album that finally made me buy a bass
RIP Steve
Worshipped Nirvana as a teenager. Still shocked at how Dave grew a chin at some stage.
He didn't. He grew a beard. I'm from a family with the same chins... all the men grow beards as early as possible and never look back.
@@patreekotime4578 he's had it for so long if he took it off it would be shockingly bizarre
@@OpheliaDarkling Can confirm when one of my uncles shaves his off, it is just a reminder to me not to. 🤣
RIP Steve Albini. Wasn't a big fan but he knew his stuff. I will be eating a roast beef sandwich tonite in his honor.
I should find some good cheese...
That Eddie Vedder prank is hilarious. "I want to get you in the studio with a real band." Hilarious.
My worlds are colliding. My goodness, I love Nirvana and Conan. ❤
Great to see the guys together after all these years
So that’s where Mr. Bungles “My ass is on fire” song came from!
Calling Gene Simmons having a "healthy" ego is quite debatable
I could listen to these guys talk for days. This is so great.
the world needs the Albini tapes. Everything's so grim, we all need a good laugh.
RIP Steve, I hope those tapes come out
I just love the way Krist laughs, it is so contagious and makes me smile the whole time.
Even before In Utero, I had been in love with Steve Albini's producing because of the Pixies Surfer Rosa album, which remains an enduring masterpiece. But everything I read about Albini, always suggested he was this really grumpy, acidic and dictatorial producer. But he sounds like a funny guy to have on board.
"I wanna get you in the studio with a real band" hahaha
They need to put these out. I bet the gene Simmons call is classic.
Albini impersonating Gene Simmons - hilarious
Omg - Steve Albini is really funny! I’ve only ever seen his ‘how to’ videos on recording and he’s so straight in those.
his sense of humor is very, very dry.
I've seen enough of his interviews and I'm still not sure if he's mildly annoyed with something, if he's just laughing on the inside and showing no emotion, or maybe a combo of both.
Hearing these guys recall the past makes me feel young again. Hope there's more of this interview; I'm loving this. So glad they were at the top back then, their silliness (lighting cigars off flaming asses) was contagious.
9:27 My god, yeah I thought he was the grown up, he's always so serious in his interviews! lol, and Steve Albini doing impressions of Kurt Cobain and Gene Simmons???? wtf???
r.i.p.
I love the Melvins
This is great!
RIP Steve
Pure rockstar, lighting a cigar off someones ass.
RIP Steve Albini!
Steve is having fun and laughing. Wow 🥹
And he's not super skinny anymore, either. Sometimes, change is for the better.
This is just fantastic ! What a fun interview, wish it was longer
I'm laughing super hard and then I see Krist giving a legit guffaw and that seems right.
Amazing! We must hear these prank calls.
So great to hear these stories. Here's a group of artists that deserve all the success, have great insights, and are real human beings.
Thank you Conan, Dave, Kris and Steve for this interview. Still my favorite band of all time that changed my life and to this day still inspires me to make music, play music and record and mix music.
What an absolute pleasure to have this sit down!! GREAT stuff here, thanks guys!!!
Great stories and glad Steve Albini had fun and what a comedian and sharp thinker that man is. Thanks for pulling these fun nuggets out of them 30 years later Mr. O'Brien. Well done sir! 😎🤙👍
Release the whole video! I already listened to the episode twice via podcast but now I wanna obsessively watch the interview for days on end!!??
Conan the best. Can tell Conan actually personally loves Nirvanas music. Had no diea. We definitely need to hear these prank calls.
The Evan one is on YT
RIP Steve :(
pretty mindblowing to see Conan's knowledge of these stories and people and the bands involved. theres 'research' and 'being prepared' but the depth of his knowledge here goes way beyond familiarity, this is a level of informed conversation that makes me think Conan has a shoebox with a collection of objects that were found in copies of Big Black's Lungs EP.
Conan must be a abig fan of Nirvana, but when he started teling dave it was 2months to record and Dave say it was 14days. I think maybe he shouldve asked and then listened
@@CourtWatchAu tbf: he probably knew it was two weeks, its a pretty well known bit of trivia and that timeframe is short either way...but since Conan worked in interviews for decades he could have inentionally tee'd that "two months" up for Dave. It put emphasis on the impressively short time and also left room for Albini to say it only took 3-4 days to mix if he wanted. (that fact would be pretty astounding on its own too, if you had never heard Albinis mix...its not good)
@@aceyriot you make goodpoints
Very cool and generous that they're recording/taping this at Steve Albini's Electric Audio studio in Chicago.
Steve has a sense of humor! Love to see it
these guys are so authentic... the laugh of chris is amazing ...
Steve Albini has the same voice as Rick Beato
6:51 - Wipers are an amazing band. Highly influential in what later became alternative rock.
I saw Nirvana interviews first, and the way they handled them, and then saw how the Beatles handled their interviews, and saw how they didn't take them seriously. That's probably the way to do it. I'd probably be terrified lol. Good for them for having fun. Neat that Steve was in on this conversation.
