Why did one of the most ethical humans to ever exist in the music industry - a dude who is (was, fuck) the embodiment of DIY ethical ways to make music - have to die on my birthday? Fuck you, Steve! He'd read this and laugh, he was also the embodiment of GenX nihilism for a time.

Everyone reading this who saw the movie Fight Club has heard music recorded by this man. This guy was a giant. Checked out, suddenly, *snaps fingers* just like that.

Huge loss. https://slate.com/culture/2024/05/steve-albini-dead-nirvana-pixies-albums-producer.html
