Stuck In Thee Garage #528: May 17, 2024

There are rock legends, and then there is Steve Albini. In addition to his work in bands like Big Black and Shellac, he worked as a producer and engineer on literally thousands of albums over the last 40 years. Albini died last week of a heart attack at the age of 61. This week, I've got songs produced by Albini in hour 2. They rock hard enough to get you into a fistfight in the parking lot.
