They're one of my favorite bands to photograph, because Al is so theatrical (in the good way) when he sings. All of the guys are. I find them irresistable to watch. Magnetic.

Ha. This may count as overinterpretation (a favorite activity of mine), but "quite a show" and "unique" seem rather carefully neutral terms; and note that no opinion about their actual music was given.

I'm surprised you haven't noticed this already- Steve Albini hates to give opinions.

This is just par for the course.

He's a meek freak.

Yeah, so I hope to see USM in 2006.
