Yeah, I had a couple brief DM’s with him on 2+2, basically just congratulating him on his bracelet and that Sonic Highways show.

That sucks. He was awesome.

Ugh, this one is a gut punch. I’ve long been a fan of that man and his work. That 2+2 thread is legendary.

Recorded some of my favorite albums, and won WSOP in HORSE and stud. Impressive guy.

“Amid all of his ongoing work, Albini was a remarkable poker player. In 2022, he won a World Series of Poker gold bracelet after beating 773 other players in the $1,500 entry H.O.R.S.E. competition for a huge prize of $196,089. While most players dressed in button-up shirts and plain tees, Albini wore a furry, white hat shaped like a bear and a red Jack O’ Nuts shirt, saying the Athens noise-rock musicians “bring me luck.” He won another WSOP gold bracelet in 2018 for beating 310 players in seven card stud to the tune of $105,629. Back then, he was wearing a Cocaine Piss shirt during the big win. He had a massive grin on his face in the photos documenting both wins.”

Not going to defend whatever that shit was from like 30 years ago, but Albini belongs in this thread.

:vince2:

“Whatever that shit was” was an album of full-on child pornography that he created and distributed

And then never acknowledged, never again mentioned the name of, during his “I acknowledge my edgelord past” that fooled morons like you

Jesus fuck, was this the guy from 2 +2 everyone was talking about the other day?

Yeah I love In Utero and all but sweet Jesus Albini had to be moved to this thread after that Medium post.
