Are you guys album listeners or are individual songs your thing?

Back to Music

I like to think I’m both! I have this thing where I can’t consider myself a ‘true fan’ of someone until I’ve listened to at least one whole album. I always feel weird if I don’t, because if I only know a song or two, am I actually a fan?

So usually, if I really like an artist, I’ll do one of two things:

1. Listen to one album in full

2. Listen to most of, if not the entire discography 


Here are some albums I’ve listened to in full!

The Jaws of Life - Pierce The Veil

Collide With The Sky - Pierce The Veil

A Fever You Can’t Sweat Out - Panic! At The Disco

Pretty. Odd. - Panic At The Disco

I Brought You Bullets, You Brought Me Your Love - My Chemical Romance

Three Cheers For Sweet Revenge - My Chemical Romance 

The Black Parade - My Chemical Romance

How It Feels To Be Something On - Sunny Day Real Estate

Lonerism- Tame Impala

Currents - Tame Impala

CHROMAKOPIA - Tyler The Creator

On Letting Go - Circa Survive

Juturna - Circa Survive 

Wake - Hail The Sun

Divine Inner Tension - Hail The Sun


So what about you guys?

Feel like for me, albums is the best way to listen to music, especially in more conceptual or thematic ones. I could understand the story, the meaning, and whatever it is that goes behind in creating it. 

I also like to do discog dive. It's not often, but usually if I'm impressed by an album, I'll try to look for more by the same artist/band, and then just immerse myself in listening to all of their albums. It has resulted in me loving some songs that I wouldn't have discovered beforehand.

But yeah, I love individual songs too. I listen to a few songs repeatedly, but I do have to take album listener side here.
