Go listen to loud music and celebrate Steve! And go make the work you hear in your head. It might just change your life; it certainly changed ours. Thank you, Steve. 🖤 @buickaudra.bsky.social@jerryroe.bsky.social, FC
And now we’ll miss him forever. We send our love to everyone who lost him, but especially his partner Heather, his bandmates Todd and Bob, his first family, and the entire fam at @electricalaudio. Thank you for having us, friends.
Beneath the profound grief we know we share with countless people all over the world, lives our gratitude for having had the experience at all. We could have only talked about it and never actually done it. But we did do it. We went. We made cool shit with a hero and legend who became a friend.
Contrary to reputation, he earned every bit of the co-producer credit he has on that record; we were actually surprised by how involved he ended up getting. We loved and welcomed all contributions, of course.
We had both loved his work as a musician and engineer for years and years, and doing that project with him exceeded all hopes and expectations. Steve was a warm, funny, accommodating collaborator, one from whom we learned too much to ever list.
We had the pleasure of making our second album BILL with Steve Albini in late 2017. We spent a week with him at Electrical Audio hammering out 13 songs to 2 inch tape—an ambitious endeavor that he led handily.
Thank you!

MASS is out 4 weeks from today, and today is Bandcamp Friday! Wild to be so close to the release! We made it up in Salem MA with Kurt Ballou, who also co-produced it. We both think it’s the best thing we’ve ever done. friendshipcommanders.bandcamp.com/album/mass
