Your favorite album-produced-by-Steve-Albini
 
I start.
Morsel.Noise Floor
Not sure it's my favorite , but I have bought a lot of record only because SA produced them , including this one , and somehow it's worth purchasing several average/bad record just to get a very good one.

Head of David's "Dustbowl". Why? Because it's brilliant, that's why!

gualbert 11.12.2007 01:12 PM

I think it sucks , and CD too.

sonicl 11.12.2007 01:19 PM

Ah, but you know nothing. So there.

That's really good.
Jesus Lizard - Pure
Hasn't he produced Om - Pilgrimage?
That's hell of a record.


@gualbert: You buy records just because of the producer?
May i call you nerd?

sonicl 11.12.2007 01:20 PM

I would mention Bitch Magnet's magnificent "Star Booty", except that Mr A says he didn't produce it, he just helped mix it.

MellySingsDoom 11.12.2007 06:47 PM

Whitehouse - Quality Time.

Everyneurotic 11.12.2007 07:24 PM

i mentioned low, neurosis and jawbreaker on the other thread.

i'd like to add mono's walking cloud... and you are there and jesus lizard's goat to the list.

pilgrimage was recorded by albini and mixed by bob weston, how about that?

add also high on fire - blessed black wings, some of the heaviest production ever is in there.

pbradley 11.12.2007 10:21 PM

Goat, obviously.

avantgarde1 11.12.2007 10:27 PM

mirror repair and in utero. they also happen to be my favorite gastr del sol & nirvana albums too. weird.

gmku 11.12.2007 10:56 PM

Pod

!@#$%! 11.12.2007 11:28 PM

he's got a hell of a fucking resume

from that list im currently leaning towards gogol bordello's records

but melt banana's scratch or stich takes the cake

gastr del sol mirror repair sounds good too

of course i havent heard all of that shit. has anyone?

Norma J 11.13.2007 12:43 AM

Sure has. I didn't even know he'd worked with alot of the bands on that list.

Anyone heard Purplene? They were from my hometown. Apparently Albini thought they were fuckin' cool and got them over to the states to record. They're on the list.

gmku 11.13.2007 12:56 AM

I'd like him to produce Radiohead.

Pax Americana 11.13.2007 02:27 AM

Rob Instigator 11.13.2007 09:51 AM

I say all of big blacks/rapemans/shellac's albums but tyhat is not fair

I chose surfer rosa, but I change my mind and now say RID OF ME - PJ HARVEY

Rob Instigator 11.13.2007 09:52 AM

but please remember that Albini does not "produce" anything. he is a recording engineer.
Most "producersd" do nothing regarding production uyet they get a share of the royalties for the songs they record.
albini sez FUCK a whole lot of that. he considers that a major rip off.

atsonicpark 11.13.2007 11:12 PM

indeed, liar is the best sounding jesus lizard recording.

batreleaser 11.14.2007 11:34 PM

I was actually talkin about how rad Steve is today, Shellac, Big Black, and less so but Rapeman are all amazing bands, BB being one of my favortites ever. He produced the first Melt Bananna alblum, Squeak

batreleaser 11.14.2007 11:36 PM

Creak, his work with Neurosis (another of my favorites) was awesome as well. I duno hes done so much great shit, theres the obvious ones too pixies, nirvana, pj, just so much shit, and then the slew of underground bands who are mostly all great,

then a Bush song, hahah, still not bad, only one embarassing track out of all of em.
