We'll miss you, Steve. You were the most honest, thoughtful, exacting, ethical, no-nonsense engineers in the business. There will never be another quite like you. R.I.P.

[jack_rabbit]

in utero has stood the test of time and, imo, is without a doubt the band's finest work. that is in no small part thanks to steve's production.

Sorry to hear he’s passed on… seems like a genuine person with real integrity… rare these days… condolences to his family and friends…
Rest easy… wishing you Peace.

I'd book time in Studio A and just ask him to talk. Not _with_ me, just: "Ok, Albini, I paid for 7 hours. Say stuff." 🙎‍♂️

Absolutely well said. Have never ever understood the flak this guy takes, he has said and (more to the point) demonstrated over and over again he just cares about making the best sounding record a band can make. He's turned down money and he repeatedly shows that the only thing he cares about is making incredible sounding records. Which is to say, capturing incredible sounds from great bands, from which come incredible sounding records.

Guy seems like a total professional and very down to earth + a decent bloke. Nice to hear. Must have been good to work with as a band.

Such a dude
Says it how it is
And leaves us with some great snippets of Nirvana behind the scenes

RIP Steve- to a dying breed of physical analog producers 🖤🖤
Gonna miss listening to your perspectives on music, recording and authenticity
Much Respect 🥀🔥

Steve is a legend! I could listen to this guy talk all day long....

[hugh-jasole]

Huge fan of Albini's work with Mono and Low in particular. Feel it doesn't get enough love in his discography.

If I were in a band, Steve Albini would be the only person I would want to record our sound.

[gribblegreeble]

Relistening to the Albini mix now, it's not so much that it sounds less like the initial release, but more like what Albini excels at - brutally crisp, dense guitar tone plus bright, present vocals and tight, punchy drums. There's harmonic percolators all over record that are finally unleashed in the recording, and it sounds so nice. This record would have scared folks...would have been the right direction to go but obviously the suits got freaked at how raw and in-your-face this was.

Those 2013 mixes are GORGEOUS!!!

It feels like you're a fly on the wall in Pachyderm; just taking in the waves..

[sergioiglesias]

I like Albini recording style, analogic and direct takes.

[ProfessorKenneth]

I love Steve's new 2013 version .. really awesome 👍🏻🎸💯 edit 2024: rest in piece Steve, you were great man🙏🏻

[jamsloftchannel]

I never met you brother but I feel like you will be dearly missed... Prayers for your family and friends.

[PressuredSpeechBand]

Your productions will live on forever Steve!

[andreaciotti]

Caro Albini a parer mio hai fatto veramente un bellissimo lavoro sull'album in utero, sentire quel suono mi fa riabbrividire la pelle

[SCATTLE]

Just finished watching the doc, absolutely loved it

[santinochavez]

I think was what done with the record, after Steve Albini got done with it, was exactly what it needed to be absolutely perfect.
