I understand as a professional he doesn't make it his job to assess if a band he records is good to him or not since he's only interested in getting their desired sound, but for fuck sakes, you've produced Bush and Scott Weiland! You moan about this rather outdated underground/mainstream binary that is dying post-internet and you produce crap like that? Blech.

albini has stated that he produces/records big name bands wo he can squeeze their record labels for as much money as possible so he can then record a new unknown band for $2000. dig? does that not make sense?
