Well, honestly, it’s quite a good time for the sociopaths lately.

I always would get anxious when a friend did that while driving

Maybe a Spotify/streaming thing. I’ll have shuffle on a playlist - switch to an album and it will stay on shuffle. Pretty annoying actually.

spending my evening listening to Dopesmoker on shuffle

Except for Apollo 18, which was intended to be shuffled, as expressly mentioned in its liner notes

Are you a sociopath?

ihavethatonvinyl.com•23 days ago

i would never shuffle an album

jennydeeastrology.bsky.social•23 days ago

I mean… I wouldn’t either but that’s not what I asked. 😉😉

ok, but also "attention deficit recorder" by hussalonia

i don't think i can write about it for your site coz i don't think there was ever a physical release but it's sooooo good (and specifically designed to be shuffled)

That shouldn’t have to be said. “Listening to an album on shuffle” isn’t listening to an album, it’s listening to a collection of songs.

IMO the only time it’s appropriate to listen to an album out of sequence is when it’s something like Paul Simon’s Rhythm of the Saints, which he repeatedly said had the track list rearranged by the label into an order that he hated

The answer is zoomers and Gen alpha. That's who. I state this as a fact, without judgement

Something is WRONG with people.

i’ve seen people talk about listening to albums on shuffle, specifically adding the album to a playlist and shuffling it? there’s no explanation i’ve read besides ‘i like it better that way’. it seems to be a thing with younger people mostly? i don’t get it and it scares me.
