Steve Albini: Odd Future ‘Assholes Making Music About Being Assholes’

Producer of Nirvana, Pixies and many more bands of note Steve Albini has revealed that sharing a bus with Odd Future left him less than impressed with the collective.

‘I spent about 40 minutes with these little pricks at the end of May and I haven’t wanted to strangle anybody that much in a real long time,’ Albini wrote on the online forum of his Electrical Audio studio.

‘My band shared an airport shuttle with them in Barcelona. They piled onto the shuttle late, 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. 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.

‘I am well aware good people can make ugly art and that ugly people can make good art. I am one hundred percent behind Odd Future’s right to rap about what they wanna rap about, but they go out of their way to make it clear that this is not a case of regular people making music about assholes, but assholes making music about being assholes.’
