Is there a clarity like never before? Absolutely, and unlike most at the time, I didn't hate Yow's up front Johnny Rotten-ish delivery. But over all it sounded... reserved at best, flat at worst.<br /><br />It's funny how things can change over time. I got 'Shot' a few months back and listened to it for the material rather than the visceral, and while I still think 'Goat' is your best, 'Shot' is not the shitty record I remember it being. But I'm an old fart now! <br /><br />And there it is, I think the main 'problem' with 'Shot' is it's a <i>mature</i> record by what could be construed as a fairly juvenile band. But hey, how juvenile can a band that references Miles Davis 'Great Expectations' actually be?<br /><br />Didn't know (or care about) the Albini thing. Let's see how your explanation get's cancer and metastasizes as it spreads, shall we?

It's still my favorite album that I've ever made with any band, period. If seems like you want to come out with a thumbs-up, but are afraid your cool Chicago friends will get mad. It's amazing how much I see of this now, people kind of tentatively dipping their toe into "Shot" while anxiously looking around to see who's going to flame them for it.<br /><br />I feel like I do have to address the legend of the rift that arose between the band and Albini around this time. Steve Albini did not part ways with the Jesus Lizard because we signed to a major label. This explanation has been repeated a lot on the interwebs, despite its obvious implausibility. Albini has recorded many records for major labels, including Helmet, Bush, and Nirvana. The deal with Capitol was not the reason for the rift between him and the band. We decided even before the completion of "Down" that we would use another producer on the next record. There were several reasons, some having to do with the quality of the recordings, some personal. At the time, we had not yet decided to look into another record label; we would have recorded our next record with another producer even if we had stayed on Touch & Go. I have to admit, I have always been impressed with the way he was able to spin being fired by the band into a brave stand for the indie kids, but that's just not how it went down.David Wm.
