When I was about to go into high school I wanted to learn about cool music that wasn’t just the classic rock my dad was into or top 40 pop music. I knew Pixies were cool because Kurt Cobain said they were cool and I liked Fight Club so I downloaded a copy of Surfer Rosa. That shit changed my life. It was so foundational to my tastes and opened up a whole world of independent music to me. Cloud Nothing’s Attack on Memory was a big deal for me too… I’m gonna miss the dude. Thanks Albini, you made some cool music.

I use mullvad and I’m too dumb to understand what this means. Can one of lemmy’s many IT experts ELI5?
