Excellent Italian Greyhound
Book •
Excellent Italian Greyhound is the fourth studio album by the band Shellac, released in 2007.
It maintains the band's signature sound, characterized by angular guitar riffs, a driving rhythm section, and Steve Albini's stark, minimalist production style.
The album's title references a breed of dog known for its sleek appearance and nervous energy, and the music reflects a similar blend of elegance and anxiety.
Lyrically, the songs delve into themes of alienation, consumerism, and the absurdity of modern life, delivered with Albini's trademark deadpan vocals.
The album's cover art, like previous Shellac albums, features a simple, unassuming design that reflects the band's DIY ethic and aversion to mainstream commercialism.
