While we were on tour, I saw a television interview with one of the brothers in Oasis. I don't know which one. He was going on about how if he was a kid and he heard this band Oasis, they would be his favourite fucking band. They were so fucking exciting, he couldn't believe how fucking incredible this band was. He was in the best fucking band there ever was and, if he wasn't in the band, then Oasis would be his favourite band because they were so far ahead of everybody else and were so much more powerful and exciting. I was unfamiliar with them because I was an American and Americans didn't know anything about Oasis. I thought, "Fuck, if a dude in the band is going off about how they blow him away, I really want to hear this band."
Then they followed that interview with filmed footage of that band playing a bunch of songs in concert for twenty minutes or something — and I'll assume you know what Oasis sounds like: it was fucking horrible. It's just the most trivial, whiny reiteration of the lowest denominator of English rock and pop clichés. Don't get me wrong, bearing in mind my profession, I have heard worse music. But the dissonance between this guy's enthusiasm for the band that he was describing in the interview, which sounded like a band I would fucking love, and then the actual [starts impersonating the signature Gallagher vocal bleat] "aah-eee-yaaaah" of it. The dissonance was just stunning. It was like a guy talking about how impressive this bodybuilder was and then out trots a toddler infant.
I don't get it, what he's describing is basically medieval peasant food. I'd definitely enjoy a big mac more. Also I don't think he's even correct on his maths, based retard albini

>I shared an airport shuttle with Odd Future in Barcelona. They piled onto the shuttle late, after finally getting corralled by their minder, who was nursing a head wound with an ice bag wrapped in a towel. They piled in, niggering everything in sight, motherfucking the driver, boasting into the air unbidden about getting their dicks sucked and calling everyone in the area a faggot. Then one of them lit a joint (or a pipe, I didn’t look) and told the driver to shut the fuck up nigger and smoked it anyway. A female passenger tried to engage one of them in conversation, but he just stared at her with a dead-to-me stare while his seatmate flipped double birds in her face.
>The whole trip they complained about not being at a McDonalds and repeatedly shouted for the motherfucker to pull over so they could get some fucking McDonalds nigger. Interspersed with the McDonalds requests were shouted boasts about how often they masturbated and fucked bitches nigger and got paid like a motherfucker fifty grand like a motherfucker. They continued complaining that the trip was taking too long and insisted they be fed immediately all the way to the airport, where their minder presumably fed them.
>I am quite happy none of them engaged me directly, because at least one of us would have regretted it.

He probably wouldn't have been so upset if they instead requested a loaf of bread and some nice roast beef or cheese, which they would have enjoyed more.

Jazz has a non-musical parallel: Christiania, the "free" zone in Copenhagen. In Christiania, like in jazz, there is no law. People are left to their own inventions to create and act as they see fit. In jazz, the musicians are allowed to improvise over and beside structural elements that may themselves be extemporaneous. Sounds good, doesn't it? Freedom—sounds good.
The reality is much bleaker. Christiania is a squalid, trashy string of alleys with rag-and-bone men selling drugs, tie-dye and wretched food. Granted Total Freedom, and this is what they've chosen to do with it, sell hash and lentil soup? Jazz is similar. The results are so far beneath the conception that there is no English word for the disappointment one feels when forced to confront it. Granted Total Freedom, you've chosen to play II V I and blow a goddamn trill on the saxophone? Only by wilfully ignoring its failings can one pretend to appreciate it as an idiom and don the cap.
it is interesting how the members of such a widely beloved pop rock band could have such abrasive personalities outside of their music. that's the best part about oasis really
and that is a seriously right wing thing to say for someone who claims to hate right wingers.

Amazing how a guy with the quintessential nerd face made some of the rawest punk/noise music of the time
Albini quotes are one of the most amusing things on this board right now. I had no intentions to listen to this guy, but I've gotten curious now. By the way, any idea where to find the Big Black tour diaries?
Michael Taylor
no, big black was always really cringeworthy. they managed to write a few decent songs but it was their approach to music that was influential, not their actual songs. albini has always been a huge dork who takes punk/indie scene politics way too seriously. the very definition of a music nerd
Xavier Clark
some good starting points:
>energetic and punky songs about fucking >more experimental atomizer >more mathy at action park >Albini's actual best album two nuns and a pack mule
