party record with a siren
tate said:the fact that albini recorded them only shows how much he loved to go against the grain, annoy even his own admirers, and subvert expectations that he behave according to prescribed underground rules (at least that's how I took it) - i.e., it was a sort of 'fuck you' to the underground-police that made a certain kind of sense, actually.
Or just to make shitloads of money.
Albini records whoever asks him and charges a flat hourly rate. No "fuck yous" or shitloads of money involved.
