Smart Studios was a recording studio located in Madison, Wisconsin. It was set up in 1983 by Butch Vig and Steve Marker to produce local bands. The studio produced bands such as Killdozer, The Smashing Pumpkins, L7, Tad and Nirvana. After initial production and remix successes, the building became the focus of operations for Vig and Marker's own group, Garbage, who released their debut album in 1995. The band, fronted by Shirley Manson, recorded each subsequent album there until 2005's ''Bleed Like Me''. The studio survived various mishaps, including flooding, and in 2003, a backhoe crashing through the walls of the downstairs studio. On May 1, 2010, the studio closed its doors because of financial difficulties. Following the closure, Madison filmmaker Wendy Schneider made a documentary on Smart Studios, in which she interviewed artists, record producers, and engineers who worked in the facility. In 2012, the Wisconsin Historical Museum assembled an exhibit on the studio, ''Smart Sounds, Alt Music, Mad Scenes''. In September 2013, producer and musician Brian Liston re-opened the former Smart Studios facility as Clutch Sound. ==Selected list of albums recorded/mixed at Smart Studios == *Killdozer: ''Intellectuals are the Shoeshine Boys of the Ruling Elite'' -1984 *The Mess: "It's All Wyrd"-1984 *Killdozer: ''Snake Boy'' - 1985 *The Mess: "Untitled"-1985 *The Crucifucks: ''Wisconsin'' - 1986 *Snowcake: ''Strangled/SceneZine EP'' - 1987 *Killdozer: ''Little Baby Buntin - 1988 *Tar Babies: ''Honey Bubble'' - 1988-1989 *Die Kreuzen: ''Gone Away EP'' - 1989 *Killdozer: ''Twelve Point Buck'' - 1989 *Nirvana: ''Nevermind'' – 1990 *King Snake Roost: ''Ground Into the Dirt'' - 1990 *Laughing Hyenas: ''Life of Crime'' - 1990 *The Smashing Pumpkins: ''Gish'' – 1990-1991 *TAD: ''8-Way Santa'' - 1991 *The Young Fresh Fellows: ''Electric Bird Digest'' - 1991 *L7: ''Bricks Are Heavy'' - 1991-1992 *The Rockin' Bones ''Second Chance To Dance'' - 1991-1992 *Walt Mink: ''Miss Happiness'' - 1992 *Chainsaw Kittens: ''Flipped Out in Singapore'' - 1992 *Freedy Johnston: ''This Perfect World'' - 1994 *Everclear: ''Sparkle and Fade'' - 1994 *Soul Asylum: ''Let Your Dim Light Shine'' - 1994-1995 *Garbage: ''Garbage'' - 1994-1995 *Sexepil: ''Sugar for the Soul'' - 1995 *Archers of Loaf: ''All the Nations Airports'' - 1996 *Garbage: ''Version 2.0'' - 1997-98 *Scott Fields: ''Five Frozen Eggs'' - 1997 *Rainer Maria: ''Look Now Look Again'' - 1998 *The Promise Ring: ''Boys + Girls EP'' - 1998 *Citizen King: ''Mobile Estates'' - 1999 *Rainer Maria: ''A Better Version of Me'' - 1999 *Garbage: ''Beautiful Garbage'' - 2000-2001 *Rainer Maria: ''Ears Ring EP'' - 2002 *Fall Out Boy: ''Take This to Your Grave'' - 2003 *The Lovehammers: ''Murder on My Mind'' - 2003 *Split Habit: ''Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is'' - 2003 *Garbage: ''Bleed Like Me'' - 2003-2004 *As Tall as Lions: ''Lafcadio'' - 2004 *Hawthorne Heights: ''The Silence in Black and White'' - 2004 *Death Cab for Cutie: ''Plans'' - 2005 * Various Artists: ''Under the Radar Vol. 1'' - 2006 *Sparklehorse: ''Dreamt for Light Years in the Belly of a Mountain'' - 2006 *Jimmy Eat World: ''Chase This Light'' - 2006-2007 *Tegan and Sara: ''The Con'' - 2007 *Hotel Lights: ''Firecracker People'' - 2007 *The Leftovers: ''On the Move'' - 2007 *Charlemange: ''We Can Build An Island'' - 2007 *Death Cab for Cutie: ''Narrow Stairs'' - 2007 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Smart Studios」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
