If you have 2 or 3 hours to spare, and you want to geek out on a convo / interview between Ian MacKaye & sir Albini, go to it.
Ian MacKaye discusses & defuncts the myths of all things PAILHEAD (!!), 80's era Wax Trax! Records, his first encounter with Albini, BIG BLACK, 80's DC and Chicago hardcore punk, & how Albini gave the Rites of Spring record a bad review back in the day. lol.
Albini admits to a love of Minor Threat, outside of a disinterest of most 80's US hardcore punk, Chicago dance music in the 80's via Wax Trax Records, also how Adrian Sherwood almost produced BIG BLACK (!!), discussion of the importance & legacy of Southern Studios / Southern Records (UK), producing Fugazi, and much much more.
