Songs About Fucking to drugi pełnowymiarowy i zarazem ostatni album studyjny zespołu Big Black.
Zajął on 54. miejsce w rankingu "Top 100 Albums of the 1980s" wg. Pitchfork Media.
Steve Albini stwierdził, że jest to płyta z której jest najbardziej zadowlony.
W momencie nagrywania płyty zespół podjął już decyzję o zakończeniu działalności.
Songs About Fucking is the second full-length and final studio album by the punk rock band Big Black. It placed 54th on Pitchfork Media's 'Top 100 Albums of the 1980s'. Included are covers of Kraftwerk's "The Model" (in a remixed version from the one on their recent B-side) and, on the CD version, Cheap Trick's "He's a Whore".
Steve Albini has said that Songs About Fucking is the Big Black album that he is most satisfied with. In a 1992 interview with Maximumrocknroll magazine, Albini said:
“The best was side one of 'Songs About Fucking'. I was real pleased with the way we did that. We just hopped into the studio, banged all the songs out and hopped out. Didn't take long, didn't cost much, just real smooth. Side two we recorded at a more leisurely pace and I think that hurt us. And that Cheap Trick song got on the tape and the CD by accident, and we just left it on.”
The band had already decided to split up before the album was recorded, prompted by guitarist Santiago Durango's decision to enroll in law school, and the band's desire to quit while at their peak.
No year is printed on sleeve, but was likely pressed post-2008.
