Oh no.... as a huge fan of Big Black, Rapeman in my
formative years, and Shellac, and all the sterling work he
did with Jesus Lizard, Slint, Boss Hog, Pixies, PJ Harvey
and more.... I'd gone off his shtick as of late when he
started harping on about terfs, but... what a loss. Oh
no....

r.i.p.

i became a fan of him as a person since this long read interview.
musically i guess everybody was always a fan, except maybe
big labels that wanted a more polished sound

it really really sucks that he died right after i regained a
lot of respect for him and i can't believe he's gone. it
doesn't feel right.

...
funnily (?) enough i'm now seeing a bit of a campaign to
posthumously cancel him over his connection with peter
sotos, orchestrated by weird transphobes, including this
funny little guy

"Joshua Ryne Goldberg (born May 14, 1995) is an American
internet troll,[1] convicted of attempting a bombing on the
14th anniversary of the September 11 attacks[2] while posing
as an Islamic terrorist affiliated with ISIS.[3][4][5] "

make of that what you will

Imagine if we had to cancel all the amazing work carried out
by trans heroes that gaslight actual women into believing in
xir's small french proto-penis. We wouldn't get to hear your
sound collages and spoken word pieces. In French!???!!

another cynical thing one could say is that he at least went
out before his ears did. referring to the long read
interview: him wearing ear buds *every*where

that sounds too spot on to be true, that he hated hearing
sounds

(was gonna say 'disliked' but Albini was never about
half-measures, i'll give him that)

i wonder if we can ask AI what a Ween LP produced by Albini
would sound like
.... any day now, surely
