BIG BLACK

Abrasive, influential Chicago hardcore band of the '80s that featured Steve Albini's 

uncompromising lyrics and a polarizing, emotionless guitar grind. 

While punk rock was always supposed to be about pushing the envelope, few post-punk 

bands seemed willing to go quite so far to creatively confront their audience as Big Black. 

The group's guitars alternately sliced like a machete and ground like a dentist's drill, 

creating a groundbreaking and monolithic dissonance in the process. 

Their use of a drum machine, cranked up to ten and sounding a tattoo that pummeled 

the audience into submission, was a crucial precursor to the coming industrial music scene 

while creating a sound which was far more challenging and organic than what groups 

such as Ministry and Nine Inch Nails would achieve with similar ingredients. 

Big Black's songs, which openly dealt with such topics as mutilation, murder, rape, 

child molestation, arson, immolation, racism, and misogyny, 

established them as a group that acknowledged no taboos

SLEEVE VG+ but (please, see pictures and read above description)

Bulldozer makes Lungs seem like a mere opening of the gates. 

Original Naked Raygun guitarist Santiago Durango gets added to the lineup, 

and NR vocalist Jeff Pezzatti adds bass, giving the second EP a thicker, more brutal 

thrust than the essentially all-Steve Albini debut. The first 30 seconds of opener "Cables" 

is the first true unleashing of Albini's industrial power guitar, sounding little like the instrument 

that it is. Influenced by Gang of Four's Andy Gill and Public Image Limited's Keith Levene, 

Albini's noisy scrapes are just as riveting as his precursors, given extra accent 

by Durango's more rhythmic screeching. A newly formed alliance 

with engineer extraordinaire Iain Burgess proves helpful...(AllMusic)
