Our Take

Shellac's "Excellent Italian Greyhound" is a raw, stripped-back masterpiece that wastes no time in getting to the point. Steve Albini's signature intense vocals paired with Todd Trainer's thunderous drumming and Bob Weston's precise bass creates a sound that hits you like a punch to the gut.

From the opening track "The End of Radio" to the closing song "Genuine Lulabelle," Shellac delivers a no-frills, no-nonsense approach to rock music that is both refreshing and exhilarating. Each track is a succinct burst of energy that leaves you craving more.

The production on this album is top-notch, with every instrument cutting through the mix with crystal clarity. Albini's minimalist recording style allows the raw power of the band to shine through, creating a sound that is both dynamic and intense.

Lyrically, Albini doesn't pull any punches. His dark, sardonic wit is on full display, with songs tackling everything from the futility of communication to the mundanity of everyday life. Each track is a thought-provoking journey into Albini's twisted mind.

Overall, "Excellent Italian Greyhound" is a tour de force of punk rock energy and attitude. Shellac proves once again why they are one of the most influential bands in the underground scene. This album is not to be missed. So grab a copy, crank up the volume, and prepare to be blown away.
