Winesburgohio 05.10.24	incredible diversity - and this is outside some of the records that are rightly classics and staples (Surfer Rosa, Goat, etc.). if you have any to add submissions are welcome!
BAT 05.10.24	how in the fuck am i just learning albini did engineering on the fragile
Ladron93 05.10.24	The Fragile? Interesting. That's my fave album of NIN.
VlacDrac 05.10.24	Serenade In Red is the best sounding Albini-recorded album ever.
Winesburgohio 05.10.24	He was a dark horse! I've had this list idea simmering for a while but I just learned about e.g. Storm and Stress Vlac while I wouldn't quite lavish that superlative on it it's rly rly good ya!
gabba 05.10.24	Albini's work on The Fragile was new to me also. I thought it was produced only by Reznor & co and they invited Bob Ezrin to arrange the sequencing because they couldn't deal with that mammoth. I jammed Low's TWLITF yesterday and it's exquisite. Will need to check many entries here as well, thanks Winesburgohio!
Demon of the Fall 05.10.24	Serenade In Red and Ys I knew about. Both all-timer level albums / production jobs in general a few of these are certainly interesting, wow... had no idea about Low, Bedhead or Mono (none of which are typically what he was known for, same re Ys, obviously)
Winesburgohio 05.10.24	yeah, looking at this list the diversity is striking. i really feel like he could have done something special with U.S. Maple...
ReefaJones 05.10.24	Nina Nastasia - Run To Ruin
myri14 05.10.24	Italian Platinum surprised me
cylinder 05.10.24	all this noise/indie/math rock stuff, and then 10. incredible. would never guess 10 was engineered by the same guy as 29, and they both sound amazing. 24 is my fave on this list, the production job on that was immediately noticeable on my first listen. never heard guitars sound like that before and lol 30
cylinder 05.10.24	several i would add: Superchunk - No Pocky for Kitty Melt-Banana - Speak Squeak Creak Brainiac - Hissing Prigs in Static Couture Neurosis - Times of Grace, A Sun that Never Sets and The Eye of Every Storm (the latter two are among my all-time fave albums) Godspeed You! Black Emperor - Yanqui U.X.O. Om - God is Good Screaming Females - Ugly Liturgy - 93696
mryrtmrnfoxxxy 05.10.24	Breeders - Pod and Title TK
kildare 05.10.24	Great list. The Atlantic obituary-article on Steve said "Earlier in his career, he had been more insistent about how a record should sound, and had freely offered his opinions in the studio." Makes me wonder if any of these records might have failed if someone else had engineered them.
Ryus 05.10.24	albini's work on cold visions is tremendous
Snake. 05.10.24	dazzling killmen - face of collapse
ConcubinaryCode 05.10.24	I feel like there should just be a staff feature with all his stuff for posterity. I like these lists but they're gone after a few days
cylinder 05.10.24	that's a great idea
Winesburgohio 05.10.24	@gabba I'm so glad you chose to check out that one in particular, it really fucks me up but in a haunting cathartic way! Albini also did Secret Name by them which balances the delicatesse really well some exceptional choices on this list, many I haven't heard - I didn't want to go with anything too "obvious" but I only have my own frame of reference to make that assessment. the thing about Albini is he went uncredited on so many albums that it's hard to compile a definitive list. if you go on RYM and look at his Credits page that's just scratching the surface
fogza 05.11.24	One of my faves is The Forms - Icarus
GiaNXGX 05.11.24	Did he really work on YS? That’s amazing. Not sure if /nº 30 is fr or jest
ArsMoriendi 05.11.24	"Did he really work on YS?" He was the recording engineer, but didn't mix/master it
Havey 05.12.24	https://twitter.com/emmamaddenUK/status/1789135414634442924 aww!!
Winesburgohio 05.12.24	: ' ) @Gian Steve Albini's work with Bladee is iConic
syco722 05.12.24	The Fragile alone would make this dude legendary but seeing it all laid out is something else. I wasn't familiar before his passing but he was clearly insanely skilled. RIP.
Storm In A Teacup 05.13.24	Bladee?
FurtherDown 05.15.24	I haven't checked much of the records listed yet but man, thank you for recommending Purplene. Such a gem of an album.
