How long between albums is ideal for you? as a fan.
Time is irrelevant, quality is forever
if you were a real fan you wouldn't give a shit

this.
Ideally 1-3 years because that's about how long an album takes to make and have it be decent quality.
why did artists in the 70s and 80s release an album every year or 2 while also touring etc?
Are musicians just lazy pussies these days? maybe drugs or something idk

because we have faggots like this enabling them.

the apathetic generation in full swing
2-3 years is fine
As a Gorillaz fan I don't mind 5-6 year gaps between albums because I know Damon Albarn'll release some other shit inbetween
either 2-4 years
or 10+ years and each one is a genre-defining masterpiece

yeah pretty much. it's contrived to stick to a time frame.
that said, i think you should give records a few months of revision at least before releasing them, if they're important to you. if you still love them 6 months later exactly as they were that's totally fine but in my experience hindsight serves well and is worth the pain of patience.

Yeah I know my wording was pretty retarded there, sorry :^)

I would agree but I had to really put a real timing, I'd say 2 to 5 years. Assuming it took 5 years to work on the album, not 3 years to enjoy the drug and then do it.

It's not because they're lazy - there are two reasons:
1) The Beatles could record multiple songs in a day. They had a large production team, they didn't have the technology to have ten different guitar parts in one song and they knew their songs much better because they played so many gigs. Modern artists have the ability to spend months finely crafting a recording, making the standard of perfection higher.
2) These days the amount of people contributing to a record will most likely be the band members, plus a producer. Many hands make light work, but now there's less money in it, artists have to do more themselves.
a year
i prefer artists who tour as little as possible and just make music. i know most can't survive that way but still, most musicians seem to hate touring anyway
