Big Black was an American punk/noise band formed 1981 in Evanston, Illinois, by singer and guitarist Steve Albini. The band's initial lineup also included Santiago Durango (guitar) and Jeff Pezzati (bass), both of Naked Raygun. The band's aggressive and abrasive music was characterized by clanky guitars and the use of a drum machine. Their lyrics dealt frankly and explicitly with politically and culturally loaded topics. Outstanding albums include the excellent Atomizer, Songs About Fucking and Pigpile (live).
