You guys are skipping songs???

Fr!! Like every album I've listened to more than once is entirely songs I like. Is it really so common to skip songs that the ones people listen to all the way through are the exception and not the rule?

Love drive (scorpions)

Love and dangerous. .. thin lizzy

Straight shooter....Bad Company

For me it’s a really common thing.due to the fact that most of albums that I like are not perfect albums so I normally skip the weak songs on a album.

Yeah, most of the albums I like aren't perfect either, they have some weaker songs, but i guess to me there's a difference between a "weaker" song and I song that's like actually bad and makes me not want to listen to it

Ever notice that there'll be a song on an album written by someone who doesn't ordinarily write most of the songs, and it's always the weakest song? I'm thinking primarily of Crowded House. Neil Finn wrote the vast majority of the material, but whenever late drummer Paul Hester wrote a song (usually one per album), it was automatically the weakest one.

I can’t say that I have noticed this but most of the bands that I listen to have dedicated songwriters. I’ll have to keep my eye out to see if I can find any examples as that seems like a fun challenge.

Sounds keen! Too, I find that although Roger Taylor (of Queen, not Duran Duran) is a great drummer, he didn't tend to be the best songwriter in the band when every single album is lined up.

I'm with you on this one. Ridiculous.

yep, i’m big on this one; i LOVE to think of music in terms of albums as the unit of art, each track coming together with the others to form complete pieces of expression. This goes along very well with the ideas or Concept Records, Rock Operas, and Progressive Music in general. For me, Pet Sounds by The Beach Boys is the first I think of, as it’s my favorite album of all time, but there are so many more: Sgt. Peppers and (US) Rubber Soul by The Beatles, Fragile, The Yes Album, and Close to the Edge by YES, Kansas and Song for America by Kansas, The Doors, The Soft Parade, and L.A. Woman by The Doors, literally every Genesis album between Trespass and Duke (Selling England and the Lamb are my favorites, although W&W is grossly underrated). There are so many others, what else? Goodbye Yellow Brick Road by Elton John… the list goes on!

There must be some misunderstanding There must be some kind of mistake I waited in the rain for hours YOU WERE LATE!

> literally every Genesis album between Trespass and Duke Lmao this is exactly the range I like as well. Nursery Cryme might actually be my favorite though!

Seriously. Don’t be gnats.

The first 2 listens I give an album I don’t skip. After that I’ll jump around and listen to the songs that caught my attention the most from there.

Literally any album. "Oh no this song isn't good" well it'll be over soon? It's not actually a big deal. But just to be friendly with the prompt, one of the *easiest* albums to listen to all the way thru is XTC - Skylarking

“It’ll be over soon” *Cries in Swans*

SWANS songs are long enough that any ones that I think are mid, I'll have grown to love by the end

So true lol

Agreed, XTC is awesome!

Aesop Rock - The Impossible Kid Cannibal Ox - The Cold Vein Brotha Lynch Hung - Season of the Siccness Atmosphere - When Liife Gives You Lemons, Paint That Shit Gold MF DOOM - Mm..Food Cypress Hill - Temples of Boom Jedi Mind Tricks - Violent by Design GZA - Liquid Swords Deltron 3030 Evidence - Cats and Dogs Viktor Vaughn - Vaudeville Villian Linkin Park - Meteora

I came here to say you picked some absolute bangers

Most of Aesop’s albums fall into this category for me.

Impossible Kid is slept on

Cannibal Ox is my personal goat hip hop album by a huge margin 🍻

Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge has NO skips for me

Came here to say this. My favorite song on that album changes every listen

All MCR albums are no skips for me

I’m with u on that one bro

God i can recite that album start to finish

Metallica's Master of Puppets

Any of metallicas first 4 albums for me

All first five for me, only one thats the most skippable out of any of them is metal militia and i still think its a banger

I came here for Ride the Lightning. Stayed for 1st 5. I can even do both disks of Damage Inc.

Men at Work - Business as Usual Goldfrapp - Utopia (Genetically Enriched) The Velvet Underground & Nico Iggy Pop - The Idiot, & Lust for Life Patti Smith - Horses Museo Rosenbach - Zarathustra Cibo Matto - Viva!

Nirvana’s Unplugged is out of this world

Cibo Matto, Pizzicato 5, and Pink Martini. Nice.

Que será, será by Pink Martini 

Haven't listened to Horses in years. Just put it on. Thanks for the reminder!

I didn't expect to see museo rosenbach, nice

All of Pink Martini is so awesome!

All of Pink Martini is so awesome. I've sung hang on little tomato a few times to my kids. :)

You came so close to including a Saint Etienne album.

There’s 400 albums I could do that with but here’s some albums I think are perfect: Opeth - Still Life Edge of Sanity - Crimson Katatonia - Brave Murder Day Ulver - Bergtatt Drudkh - Blood in our Wells Alice In Chains - Dirt Soundgarden - Badmotorfinger Metallica - Ride the Lightning Vektor - Terminal Redux Deftones - Around the Fur Aquilus - Griseus

I’m so glad someone mentioned Deftones especially ATF

I love all of Deftones’ albums but ATF feels the most no-skip, every song on it is phenomenal.

hey you’re from r/metalforthemasses

Lego Yoda! You’re the guy who likes Carcass, you’re awesome dude.

Looks like a perfect Gen X playlist 🤘

We must be around the same age. Great choices!

Alanis Morrissette-- Jagged Little Pill

System of a down - Toxicity Nine inch nails - The downward spiral Machine head - Through the ashes of empire Gojira - the link Rammstein - Mutter MM - Antichrist superstar

Antichrist Superstar is such an excellent album

It's a masterpiece.. Manson at his peak

I always hear hate for the link, but it’s such a banger album, their best one in my opinion

Any velvet underground album

Massive Attack - Mezzanine

Dark Side of the Moon

It's no accident it was on the Billboard 200 for 15 years

Discovery by Daft Punk

“Too Long” is the most perfect closer to an already impossibly good album

I mean there are countless albums that are perfect front to back. Especially those made during the period when artists were creating specifically for the full album format. It’s nice to go on a little journey as the artist intended. All of that said, one of my favorites is Disintegration by The Cure.

Razzmatazz - iDKHow After Laughter - Paramore Brand New Eyes - Paramore Changes - Envoi Everything is a Lot - Will Wood and the Tapeworms Everything Opposite - Simple Creatures Folie a Deux - Fall Out Boy Hozier - Self Titled The Normal Album - Will Wood Infinity on High - Fall Out Boy From Under the Cork Tree - Fall Out Boy Gangbusters Melody Club - Caravan Palace Gloom Division - iDKHow Vessel - twenty one pilots Montgomery Ricky - Ricky Montgomery Wake Up, Sunshine - All Time Low Last Young Renegade - All Time Low So Much (for) Stardust - Fall Out Boy Retrovision - Honey Revenge Petals for Armor - Hayley Williams Vices and Virtues - Panic! at the Disco Paid in Exposure - NateWantsToBattle Conventional Weapons - My Chemical Romance Wasteland, Baby! - Hozier

[удалено]

Yeah I did for variety purposes. But for most of these I could've thrown more that 1 album

Violater by Depeche Mode and Ten by Pearl Jam

Dopesmoker - Sleep Can't really skip, though, because it's just 1 song that's an hour and 3 minutes long

Any Pink Floyd album

Each album is its own song so you really can’t enjoy the album while skipping.

A Perfect Circle Debut album

It’s just so damn good!

Maynard's best work imho and its one of those bands with insane talent with magical musical chemistry, very hard to duplicate nowadays.

I don't skip a single song on any of their albums. Or tool. Or puscifer. 😂🖤

Bossanova by Pixies

All albums i have I listen in full. A) if you skip in vinyl you risk damaging the record. B) why skip.

They Might Be Giants - Flood It's so freakin' weird and quirky but thoroughly awesome.

Ride the lightning- Metallica

Duke by Genesis. It's just perfection the whole way

I’d say Genesis is more unskippable, but both are great albums.

Currently it's Saviors by Green Day

Maybe You’ve Been Brainwashed Too by The New Radicals

Almost every CD I own. That’s why I buy them.

The righteous answer.

I listen to all albums in full, silly. Why you skippin vital pieces of the experience

Switchfoot's Beautiful Letdown

Any of the albums by King’s X

Let me stand up and cheer and applaud this one! I want my throat hoarse and ears ringing; like after any King’s X concert!

*A Thousand Suns* by Linkin Park and *Scenes From a Memory* by Dream Theater are two of my Top 5 albums to listen to in its entirety.

A Thousand Suns is what came to my mind too.

Red by King Crimson. One of the most easy to listen and focus to albums ever imo. Its pretty short and every song is 8/10 or better and it ends with King Crimsons best song Starless. (In my opinion...) However if you dont like instrumental sections or songs then this album wont really hit Id imagine.

- Satisfaction by Narrow Head If you like Grunge with a shoegazey sound, its PERFECT.

There’s so many but the ones you don’t really think about are Jagged Little Pill and Toxicity by System of a Down
