it's so mentally off the hook it's amazing

"Whenever I talk to a band who are about to sign with a major label, I always end up thinking of them in a particular context. I imagine a trench, about four feet wide and five feet deep, maybe sixty yards long, filled with runny, decaying shit. I imagine these people, some of them good friends, some of them barely acquaintances, at one end of this trench. I also imagine a faceless industry lackey at the other end holding a fountain pen and a contract waiting to be signed."

uh okay Steve, did you write this before you produced Page & Plant or after you produced Bush???

Yeah but they're not paying Albini $90,000.

I must ask the Berkeley boys how much they had to pay him in the end.

do try and stay on-topic

 

[killy kill]

A grand a day apparently. PM Buckrake

 

[therealjohnny]

There were a few bands- with member who post here that got Albini to do their records

Boxes are one..i think?

The Bearded ladys band- whoever they were..

a few others too

oh right- just saw you mentioned Buckrake there

nope all songwriters have publishing companys, a lot of folks once they 'make it' start their own but will be 'administrated' by a larger publishing company. I guess it saves money, or gives the impression of autonomy. Also it is fun to choose a name that is funny given that it has to end with the world 'music'

faith no more: You Make Me Sick, I Make Music

Soundgarden, that was, methinks.
