>albums over 90 minutes
why do musicians do this? it's ridiculous
>albums under 4 hours
They wrongly assume people aren't retards with goldfish attention spans
If it's good then why the fuck not? I love long as fuck albums that are filled with quality material. It's not like you have to listen to it all in one sitting or anything.
The length doesn't matter as well at it uses the time well
>>65427992
>Albums between 80 and 100 minutes
Why do musicians do this? It can't fit on one CD, and isn't enough to make a double album.
>albums can be finished in a single lifetime
>album is over 7 hours long
>>65428100
Double LP bro
>albums have songs that are less than 10 minutes long
>>65428100
CDs can fit up to 120 minutes
>album is longer than 10 seconds
>>65428151
what did he mean by this
>>65428151
For audio CDs, the maximum length for audio is 79 minutes.

If this much awesomeness can be packed into 40 minutes, your favorite album should be able to do the same
>>65428151
Not audio CDs you retard. It's 80 minutes. Maybe with your shitty 128kbps mp3s burned directly, but not something that plays in a standard player.
Oh look, it's this thread again
>EP is over 30 minutes long
>>65428664
plebbiest post i've seen in ages
>>65427992
Because they can. Back in the day, tons of artists had lots of material that they couldn't get out all at once because of the vinyl format. Nowadays, you can do whatever the fuck you want with CD/digital.
>>65428664
>awesomeness
This isn't the cringe thread
>>65428786
Except have singles over 10 minutes long it on iTunes.

Please tell me you're fucking joking. That's like saying you don't watch a movie in one sitting.
>>65429003
>when the metaphor wack af
>>65428861
I've always thought it was just another boring indie rock album.
>>65429003
Sometimes, I only download the singles.
>>65429062
Fucking kill yourself holy shit
>>65429086
Why? They're clearly the best songs. Otherwise why would they be the singles?
>>65429003
It's more like saying you don't watch a full TV show season in one sitting. They are divided into songs for a reason.
>>65429092
Because an album is a package. You listen to the entire thing as if it's one entity.
>>65429100
Cunt, a TV show goes on for fucking years, a movie is no longer than 3 hours. An album is closer to a movie than it is to a show.
>>65429127
But not all the songs are good. Why shouldn't I only download the good ones?
>>65428861
that's a pretty summer post of you there friendo
>>65429141
BECAUSE IT DOESN'T WORK LIKE THAT
YOU DON'T GET THE ENTIRE MESSAGE OF THE ALBUM BY ONLY LISTENING TO SOME SONGS!
That's like ripping out chapters of a book because you don't like them as much as other chapters.

Books ? Movies ? All your metaphors are retarded. An album is like an art exhibition. You need to give a look at all of the artwork to get a full picture of the message and emotions conveyed; but each piece was created and showcased individually, and you can enjoy looking at only one or two.
Also, some art exhibitions only have a few good artworks, and then it's okay to dismiss the rest.
>>65429459
>An album is like an art exhibition
No, YOUR metaphor is retarded.
>>65429515
keep the arguments coming
