What I mean by that is that the tracks either flow real nice, or that the album has excellent tracks song after song, though not all the way through. Or both. I can't think of any that I never feel like skipping from time to time, where it's like in ratings Track 1: 10/10 Track 2: 9/10 Track 3: 10/10. I think the best run of songs I know is my recent favourite OK Computer, where the first three songs get a hefty 10/10, then about 8 for Exit Music. I can't put ratings on it at the moment but SAW85-92 has excellent 5 excellent tracks at the start, if Green Calx weren't there then it would 6. Okay your turn. |

dear dr. phartphace: an album is too big to use as a unit of aesthetic judgement accurately. love, pepsi cola |

It has yeah! Exit Music just doesn't hit my spot... |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
...as much as the rest of the album. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the new nelly album is very consistant. every track has the same rating: 0.5/10. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Hehe. What are you doing listening to Nelly? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||

||||||||
|

|
|
the last 8 tracks of µziq's tango n vectif rerelease flow like treacle to my ears.... also, they are good songs that are consistant in the album |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Tango n' Vectif has been on my list for ages. Hmm... Who is that in your avatar Bob? |
||||||||

|
that is emma caulfield, minor star of such hit television programmes as 'buffy the vampire slayer' and many more... |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
a good majority of the albums i listen to are 9/10 10/10 and such. some are even 10/10 all the way through. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i would have to say only one album springs to mind when i think of flowing albums and that is nirvana - in utero, i never skip a track on that album ever. all so damn good! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
What albums would they be? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
CKY's Infiltrate.Destroy.Rebuild.. I give every song a 10. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I would say ae's chiastic slide. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
NIN- The Fragile, AE- Chiastic Slide, and most ambient albums I listen to are fairly consistant... Coil, Lustmord etc. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Pink Floyd - DSOTM is the first that comes to mind for me... great flow from track to track, no need to skip at any point |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
"It has yeah!" lol. it's one of my top songs on the album. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||

Depeche Mode - Violator |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
Arovane-Atol Scrap |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Beatles - Sgt. Pepper's lonely hearts club band is another top, each song seems like the perfect compliment to the others |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

i dident like the George Harrison song on that to starrt with. but then i did. |
||||||||

pink floyd - the wall nin - fragile tool = lateralus modest mouse - moon and antarctica all gybe cds\side projects refused - shape of punk to come... sigur ros - agaetus byrjun and () swans - soundtracks for the blind dj shadow - endtroducing aphex twin - drukqs autechre - confield boc - mhtrtc and geogaddi |

Orbital - Insides |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

i have to agree with sgt.pepper. i never skip tracks on that. an amazing album. 10/10. brilliant opener medley with 'little help from ym friends' then straight into 'lucy'. such consistency. the george track is actually my fav. on the album. though i like all the tracks my other fav.s are 'lucy', 'day in the life' 'good morning'. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i agree on sigur ros. Especially Agaetis Byrjun! That album flows like nothing else. I also agree on MHTRTC haven't listened to geogaddi enough. +i'd like to add Pearl Jam - Vs. All the songs are fantastic, no exceptions. And they all go together really well... more so than on any of their other albums. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah Geogaddi would be the most consistant for me, if it weren't for Alpha and Omega, which everyone except me seems to like. I agree with you on Endtroducing, Machine. And Anus, you're English you must've known how that sounded! |

Shit how could I forget Since I Left You? :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
since i left you is a really good flowing album however i dont really like this dance sort of stuff but it is well crafted and the artwork is awesome. |
||||||||
|
|

mm.. confield is a good one too.. yeah.. how about the pixies - doolittle.. |

MachineOfGod... Drukqs? That is the MOST inconsistant album ever! :p |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
The first two that come to mind are sigur ros, () and mum, finally we are no one. those are both transcendent in my eyes, every moment. i listen to different types of music so it's hard to know what i should mention... yagya, rhythm of snow is very nice throughout. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
OK Computer is the most flawless album I can think of... I never want to skip anything, though Lucky and The Tourist don't really get me going, so the album gets more boring for me as it goes on. But still... the high quality never stops. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
drukQs is very consistent, just because half the tracks are crazy and the others piano, that has nothing to do with flow. are you saying that every song has to be in the same style to flow? if so thats outrageously stupid. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i agree often contrasts make for a much better flow than all the songs on an album to be in the same style. When they all sound alike, the entire album will be a bit like a boring grey blur. You need variation! Taking you from one beautiful moment to the next... Still i think druqks is almost consistent... if it wasn't for that damn gwarek2 song... *sigh* |
||||||||

Gwarek2 is great ! |
||||||||
|

I think massive gaps between songs are terrible for the flows of albums. And I think there is something like a 10 second gap between Avril 14th and Mt. Saint Michael. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Explain how Drukqs could possibly be consistant (its one of my favorite albums of all time so i'm not bashing on it here) but, none of the songs flow into one another, they are sporatically placed throughout the cd... if you didn't know any better you wouldnt even know if was the same artist throughout. What possibly makes it consistant rather then inconsistancy itself? |

the gaps are also incredibly frustrating, yes! :-( I forgot about that. It's not just between Avril and Mt Michaels... there are seconds-long silences between most of the tracks. |

The thing is that it's not just random. The way the entire album is constructed is very well done i think. You start off with the soothing sounds of Jynweythek, and right after that the first beats off vordhosbn... that contrast! It's just amazing. Have you ever tried listening to all the "proper" tracks in a row? (vordhosbn, omgyjya switch7, cock/ver10... etc.)... i think it's boring just way, just a collection of tracks. The way druqks is now i think makes it an album rather than just a loose collection of songs. There are beautiful moments/contrasts everywhere! For instance: Gwely Mernans puts you in an almost hypnotic/sleepy state with that calm pulsating rhtyhm... then after six awesome minutes the beautiful melodies in Bbydhyonchord gently bring you back on earth... and then the album smacks you in the face with Cock/ver10 ;-)... man... it's just amazing. If Cock/ver10 would have started immediately afer Gwely Mernans the contrast would have been too big... ridiculous even. He just had to put that sweet little track inbetween them to make it flow better. I can't picture these songs in any other order. Even if i listen to one song seperately, in my mind the next one already starts to play when it's over. |

I reckon that Biosphere albums are pretty consistent all the way through, in particular Substrata, I never feel like skipping a track on this album and the tracks flow and compliment each other nicely. How ambient albums should be : ) |
