Here is the final paragraph of a letter to the editor that Steve Albini wrote to the Chicago Reader in 1994. It was directed towards a critic who wrote a year-end recap. King.
Hard at this point not to think that everything meaningful and important will be sold to a corporation and completely gutted. I still have some faith, but it feels especially bleak these days.
Beautifully lyrical guitarist, underrated vocalist. Television made a new kind of music and inspired new kinds of music. Marquee Moon is a perfect record. Requiescat.
