No, really
Few names in music are linked with artistic integrity as often as Steve Albini's. And few folks wouldn't know artistic integrity if it started eating their eyeballs quite like Scott Weiland. Yet ying and yang have come together to birth, yes, the next Scott Weiland solo album.
As Weiland noted in a recent interview with kindred spirit Howard Stern, he's currently recording the follow-up to 1998's 12 Bar Blues with Mr. Albini and No Doubt drummer Adrian Young [via Idolator].
And yes, Weiland's publicist has confirmed that everything in the previous sentence is indeed true. (Remember, Steve Albini produced a Bush album back in the day.)
The Weiland opus is tentatively due for November release. Don't know about you, but I sure hope he sings about masturbation on this one too.
Ask Albini what the hell he was thinking when Shellac turn up at a European venue near you. Their recently expanded touring itinerary lies just after the jump.
And OMG, and did you hear? Stone Temple Pilots have reunited and they are touring all over this spring and summer like it's their job. Which, um, it is. Pardon me while I ceremonially crank that "Vasoline" MP3 I got off Napster when I was sixteen.

Psycho, you didn't write that. It ain't your style. Where did it originally come from? I don't like the tone of the piece. The geezer don't like STP or Albini? Does he like ANY rock music? Sounds like some wanna-be-but-failed-muso-turned-journo to me. Must be hard being so bitter all the time. Cunt.
Oh, I ain't a fan of Albini's production at all. Please don't let it be true. It's the reason I don't listen to the Frames 'For the Birds', which has crackin' songs but the production's kinda dull.
Just realized: the fuckwit the wrote the piece looks down his nose at the acts he's talking about, and then promotes those same acts' tours by publishing the tour dates. He's more than a cunt, he's a dumb cunt.

Albini's dope.

Heh!
Agree with you about "The Albini Sound" - I like his music a bit and he's recorded some of my favourite records, but I'm just not into his production style at all.

Albini is great for more straighforward stuff, like In Utero, which has great production. I hated that Godspeed album he was involved with, although that wasn't entirely his fault.
