There are great songs and albums in all genres.

There are terrible songs and albums in all genres.

Listening to an album as it was released, front to back, is the best way to consume music.

Following on from this, they do make music like they used to. Just like they used to, there's heaps standard fare being shoveled out the door. Every now and then, there's a good one that stands the test of time.

This happens in every era, not just the music you grew up with.

I mostly stick to concept albums and genres that tend toward musical suites, so I strongly vibe with that last sentence.

Still, most albums are just collections of songs the artist wrote. They're not intended as conprehensive works, just a way of distributing songs in bulk, and maybe a physical copy.
