Red house painters - Down colorful hill

It's written by Nicleback

The lead singer sounds like a dying cat with its balls in a vise

>album has more than 10 songs
at least 3 will be boring filler

Red flags that a person is a pleb:

>he has red flags

It's Lil Wayne

>chorus of the first song is just the name of the track repeated ad nauseum

The artist of the album doesn't sell anti-Drumpf merch

Embarrassing

>album has more than 10 songs

>album starts with audio of the brutal death of my parents
really ruined the new Alvvays album for me

>album doesn't give you an automated warning when the internal volume of a song changes pitch

>artist doesn't sell pro-Hillary merch

this. we all know there's only one good rapper

>volume changes pitch

>album isn't dedicated to the many we lost in the september 11th attacks

>album has songs

>ugly cover art

>album wasn't released on june 17th, 1994

>not debut album

>not a photo album

>album begins with a movie sample

???? many. great albums are like this waaa ?????

I agree, NMH is overrated as fuck. Why did you post that pic of the amazing singer Thom Yorke though?

>album lasts more than 50 minutes

>track has babies' noises / cries / laughs
YES, IM TALKING TO YOU FUCKING SWANS

This will make you change your mind

Literally the day an ex girlfriend of mine was born. What does this mean?

]First and second singles released are poppy (for a band that isn't pop)

Not an album but this is a good song with a baby crying in it

that not bad inherently tho

This. Albums with less than 10 songs that are shorter than 40 minutes are almost always guaranteed to be at least decent since the creators had to cut down to only their best content rather than being forced by their label to shit out a bunch of bad filler songs that make the album as a whole unlistenable.

Look at it this way: If you listen to a 30 minute album and you like it, then you probably liked the whole album and are hungry for a little bit more. Whereas, if you listen to a 30 minute album and you don't like it, you can stop listening halfway through because you know what the rest of the album will be like or if you finish it you didn't waste all that much time.

>album has less than 10 songs
Odd, for me that's the sign of a good album. It tells me that the artist didn't try to hit some arbitrary number and instead released what they felt was worth everyone's time.

It's "fewer", less is for wholes and fewer is for separate items.

>album has 12 songs and got BNM on a slow week

It won't be bad, but it won't be good.

>album has a 9 minute song
>the next song after it is a 20 minute remix of the prior song

Seriously LCD Soundsystem?

>album is the side project of an already-overrated artist

I'm looking at you Stone Sour

>album is from an artist whose previous albums you have not enjoyed at all

>album lasts longer than 45 minutes
