ARTIST MAINARTIST INFORELATED ARTISTSLINKSREVIEWS

More likely to play Reykjavik than Detroit, and more likely to release songs on flexi-discs in Dutch comic books than provide MP3s on their website, Shellac (or Shellac of North America) operated completely outside the typical machinations of the music industry -- their press sheets typically exclaimed "no free lunch," referring to promo copies -- and trio carved out a sizable niche as a minimalist rock band.

VINYL FORMAT. Shellac consists of Steve Albini on guitar, Todd Trainer on drums, and Bob Weston on bass. This is their fourth and longest release and all the songs are about Italy or greyhounds.

VINYL FORMAT. The first full-length from the mad genius team of Steve Albini, Bob Weston and Todd Trainer.
