derek's essentials #4: shellac - at action park
 

shellac - at action park
"touch & go" 1994

If you people don't have this album then you're really missing out. This album encompasses everything Steve Albini has done and is essentially a perfect album. Features their best song "Crow". Hell, I'm sure you guys have all heard this but if you are one of the few missing out then go forth and click....

derek, yr great! I only have 10,000 hurts, although I'm a big Big Black fan. Looking forward to giving this one a serious listen!

Too heavy.

yes, this is indeed an essential album.

This album is a motherfucking masterpiece of tension and explosive catharsis.
especially right after he says "...at the dog and pony show."

Their best song is COPPER though, off of terraform.

ha!

Every song on At Action Park is amazing, I fucking love that album. 'A Minute' is my favorite Shellac song.

wtf. I don't understand people who don't own this thing. I just bought myself the sexy wax , so now i have the CD and the LP. Why? Just because it's my second fave album of all time. yes sir.

My Black Ass!!

NO ENGLISH





























NO MONEY

for more SHELLAC love, check out the amazing official thread produced by me, it's an all-analog thread. No protools.

Hah. I guess there's going to be two threads for this album eventually, as I plan on doing one myself. Just look at my username. I love this album, especially "Crow".

I've never heard this band. Are they any good? Who's Steve Albini?


Mind you, I've been living under a rock for the last 15 years and I just crawled out.

Oh, my favorite Shellac song is also on Terraform: "This is a Picture".

I need to listen to Terraform more.

i tried to find the best of steve albini on amazon but they didn't have it

Cause he wouldn't have any music made by himself on it. Great album, though. Stellacore here I come.

They flirted with shopcore for this. I hope I don't have to hear rain-noise anymore for a while.

In all honesty I've never actually heard it but I'm downloading it now. I'm quite excited to be honest.
