Not into albums?

The death of the album is an article by Ken Napzok of Tiny Mix Tapes about how the album is dying.
I actually started out assuming that the album was dead with the ol’ Brad Sucks here. I mean if I’m posting all my songs as I do them, why bother putting everything into an album? But then I decided to jam an album together and people were all excited about it and had a different impression of me altogether. I was a dude with some songs before and then I was a guy with an album. Also people gave me money for it, which is A-OK.

Personally I still think “Music Album” is an important sub-medium. Purely an artistic sensibility, about how songs flow, frame each other and create cohesion. But maybe I’m just old fashioned.

I like albums in which the songs kind of flow into each other…like the old Pink Floyd records. That is how I kind of try to write/record my albums….guess I’m old fashioned but young.
