the tracks sound better in the context of the album than on their own imo

>not listening to albums the whole way through
>skipping songs
yuck

Anyway there's something satisfying about getting through a long, arduous album that isn't very interesting. It's like a strange sense of accomplishment.

Yeah. I sat through an entire Miley Cyrus album on the way to drop off my daughter at school, and after she got out of the car and the album finished I felt pretty happy with myself, for some odd reason. I felt like stabbing out my eardrums with screwdrivers the whole way, but still.

It's not the same when I listen to a blatantly awful album, but when I listen to one that's sort of a pain in the ass I get that feeling.

The Wall is enjoyable, but I prefer listening to Animals straight through. But I can see how this can be your personal favourite. Everyone once in their lives do feel a sense of nihilism and wants to be secluded. And most nihilistic people are the most emotional.

What's your favourite song from the album?
>>
Warm Healer is such a great closer that I feel dirty listening to the bonus tracks after but they're all on par with what's on the album so I can't help it.

Heard this for the first time literally two nights ago. Absolutely blown away. In fact it reminded me of Days of Future Passed

>>66172286
Good one.

Pretty much any Beatles album, Pet Sounds, Blank Banshee 1, Songs from the Big Chair, Wish You Were Here, so many great choices. There are easier Green Day albums to do (namely the two before this one), but I always liked the length, variety, and quality of each style of this one.

i thought vaporwave was dead
>>
>>66174858
Sadly it is,
BB1 is just trap with a cool 'computer world' theme, though.
But if you're going to mention vapor I have to say my favorite is also essential to be in one sitting, since each track is so short.

That title track is one of the staples of the genre, though I always preferred virtua.zip.

Only tip I can try giving is trying to appreciate all that fucking atmosphere on the Wish You Were Here album, like that dark Unknown Pleasures one.
And/or Meddle + Ummagumma, if you haven't already.

I usually end up listening to this in one sitting. Sometimes I'll put it on expecting to listen to just three or four songs and something about it just makes me sit down and listen to it the rest of the way through.
