Bloody loved Big Black back in my student days: Atomizer is such a good album.

Yeah, this one stung. Must have seen Shellac 20 or 30 times. Was meant to be seeing them next month. One of the greats.

Really saddened by this. I thought his high levels of spite would keep him going for eternity! Not to mention he was also teetotal and didn't use drugs.

Whilst many will not have heard the bands he was in, they certainly would have heard and enjoyed some of the albums he would have produced.

Indeed - Pixies' Surfer Rosa, Nirvana's In Utero, Rid of Me by PJ Harvey...

Can remember hearing Big Black on the peel show for the first time. A beautiful racket
RIP

Roger Corman, King of the B movies and Oscar winner, 98. I loved his Edgar Allen Poe adaptations plus The Trip with Jane Fonda and Dennis Hopper. RIP.
