one of the greats that one.
Rest in peace, Bernard Hill.
RIP Steve Albini

R.I.P. In Utero is one of the best sounding albums from the 1990s.
Fucking hell, he was one of the few true heroes, rip steve.
<puts on Scentless Apprentice> <cranks to 11> RIP to a great one...
holy shit... Steve Albini was a legend. I didn't always agree with his perspectives and philosophies regarding production, but I always respected his opinions, and considered everything he had to say to be at the very least educational. He was a unique pioneer, and he was never afraid to go against the grain. Albini was always the opposite of "selling out," and is one of the clearest examples of a musical creator who stuck to his principles and ideas and didn't compromise them. Everyone in the music production world revered him (or is an idiot).
This is a sad day.
Well said. I caught an interview with him recently and was pleasantly surprised to learn he was actually more flexible in his thinking on production. He had good things to say about Butch Vig, for example. Seems he did really stick to his philosophy but that he also didn't want or expect everyone else to fall in line and do the exact same thing.
Also, I mean dude is forever a fucking legend.
Truly a legend. Respect to him for forging his own path and encouraging others to do the same.
Just... he was maybe THE most influential engineer in rock music, ever, full stop.
Obviously everyone will mention his work on In Utero (rightly so), but just looking at all the bands he crossed paths with over the years is pretty astounding. The records he did with Low are some of my absolute favorites.

Albini truly was the GOAT.
RIP Dennis Thompson, last surviving member of MC5. Fantastic band all gone now.

RIP David Sanborn, great pop/rock sax player, at age 78. Sanborn played with a huge amount of artists.

Surprised no one has mentioned Roger Corman yet. The king of the B movies who launched the careers of many actors and filmmakers passed Thursday at 98!

RIP. He fought the good fight.

Sorry. My mistake.
It was Pile of Trash, this time.
I've goddamn sure seen "human trash" or "human garbage," here,.too, though.
I don't know shit about who or what y'all are talking about, honestly.
I just think that deHUMANIZING humans, ESPECIALLY posthumously, is in poor taste, unless they were horrible pedophiles or some shit.
That's all I'm saying.
That's just my opinion
Didn't mean to get on a soapbox. I honestly don't even have TIME to read about whoever the new dead "trash" is right now,.
I'm not quite myself, currently,.and, as you guys know, I'm GENERALLY open to people's ideas and opinions to a FAULT.
Everyone can say and think whatever they want, obviously.
I did not mean to make anyone feel bad or guilty, or offend anyone.
I only came to this board to give update about one thing; I'm. Not really in rational discussion mode.
Aorry.

Ok so I REALLY thought about this, and realized that its a very specific LINGUISTIC thing, and it MAY be temporary.
Stephen King is a hero to me.
Let's say he has a heart attack tomorrow.
If someone said
"damn. I HATE that worthless motherfucker, and am thrilled that he's dead.
I just wish he'd been starved nearly to death.for 20 days, with dogs pissing on him every hour, on the hour.
Then, they should have chopped his dick off, skinned him Cartel.style, reversed the starvation, had him fucked by a donkey several times, shot him up with meth so.he couldn't pass out from pain, and fed him, alive, to pigs, SLOWLY.
Then, I hope he wakes up in a literal Baptist hell, wherein he spends eternity in a toilet, full of liquid shit, treading...liquid shit.
He's the worst motherfucking godawful piece of shit who ever lived. Fuck him and everything he did and said and stood for.'
Well? I'd be like 'yeah, I liked the dude,' more or less, albeit in a lengthier and more eloquent manner.
This has nothing to do with me liking or disliking, lol, GHALLAHER? Or.whatever? I don't know ANYTHING about this person, except...I've seen an image of him with a watermelon. I'm NOT a fan.
Actually, I wouldn't know if I were a fan or not.
It's just that, for some.deep seated reason (and I think I know what it is), certain, very specific phrases started becoming distasteful to me, in about 2000.
Then, those phrases were spoken and written regarding friends of mine who died young during the ensuing years.
NOW, the person I may llikely lose is, well, I've never been closer to anyone.
And I finally lost my shit, here.. It won't happen again...not regarding THIS subject.
Any of you guys who took the time to read this, I appreciate it.
And I hope this clears everything up.
