I have a lot of friends who have recorded with Steve. The guy is the last proper bastion for 2 inch reels with drum recordings. the surprising thing about Steve Albini is… he is not expensive and, if we likes the project, will record just about anything.

They're good. Almost an early post-punk B-52's style vocal delivery with sinfully low-fi distortion. Agreed it needs Albini's drum treatment i.e. Surfer Rosa era Pixies or In Utero Nirvana. Maybe the best stuff I've heard in a while. At least in terms of harder rock. Yep. They’re good. Almost an early post-punk B-52′s style vocal delivery with sinfully low-fi distortion.

Hardly Art is playing out some good hands. These recording have almost Replacements meets pixies characteristics with brilliant distortion on those guitars. I would love to see what someone like Steve Albini could do with this. I cant agree more LB. Hardly Art is playing out some good hands.
