Incidentally, this is exact sort of sentiment Steve would hate. Simply put, he was a man who valued dignity and human kindness, and showcased remarkable personal growth over the years.
Condolences to all his loved ones. RIP

Steve Albini changed my life.
Countless classic records, insightful music writing, and an unwavering drive for fairness & generosity that made him truly unique.
Getting the chance to record with him will remain one of my most treasured memories. Thank you for everything Steve.

Joe Pesci opened the next episode of SNL saying he wanted to smack her in the mouth. Sinatra said she needed "her ass kicked". Her records were pulled from airplay and burned and bulldozed in protest. She was more brave, and more right, than she ever got credit for.

By the time Sinéad O’Connor sang this (1992) some 70,000 children had been sexually abused by Catholic priests & brothers in Ireland. The state, media, bishops, cardinals & pope had covered it up. She was scorned.
