Shellac
All three members of Shellac have solid pedigrees in the more aggressive and experimental side of the ’80s punk scene, but the guiding force is clearly Steve Albini, the legendarily caustic record producer and musician who first made noise (lots of noise) in Big Black. Aided by likeminded bassist Bob Weston and drummer Todd Trainer, Albini uses Shellac to create rumbling, angular noise that hits like a sledgehammer. The trio tours and records infrequently—its most recent album is 2007’s Excellent Italian Greyhound.
