I agree.
Don't forget about that other "format" between single and album: the "EP". As a musician, I've always liked it: not as time consuming to produce as a 40+ minute "album" but more robust than a single track or two.
It's easier to digest and get your brain around (for listener and creator). Which means a lot...granularizing music consumption is good, I think more artists need to think in terms of EP when they are trying to break themselves. Plus, it trims the fat (i.e. filter yourself;-)
- nkohari 19y agoYES. The demise of the EP is almost as tragic as that of B-sides. I wish more bands released EPs rather than full albums, because there's always a couple of songs that make you think, "how did that get in there?" (Still, like I said above, I greatly prefer listening to a group of songs rather than singles.)
- BristolStoolMan 19y agoAllows you to release stuff more often as well. Every 3 months you release an "EP", let people pay what they want for it. As long as the music is good, people will buy. I hope. :)
