I think Metalhead.club has helped me reunite with the concept of album again, something that has been lacking for me since the 90s really. This applies across the board to any genre thankfully. Song titles are hard for me because the concept of album is a headspace like being drunk is different from being sober or depressed is different from mental balance. In the headspace, I remember and experience constituent parts or lines/webs of thought easily. As I have mentioned, album art helps.

@wendigo I used to listen to music semi-randomly and didn't really care about albums as a coherent artefact in my youth, but I think metalhead.club made me think differently about that, too! :)

It's not true for all albums, but some albums need to be listened to as a whole album, esp progressive metal 🤘
