>band puts the best songs at the beginning of the album so you have nothing to look forward to at the end
This really gets me too. I'd rather a back loaded album than a front loaded one.
sonic youth does this and it really pisses me off. the first songs (tom violence, schizophrenia, teenage riot) are fucking great but then the albums turn to shit after them aside from a couple other songs maybe.
>band puts the worst songs at the beginning of the album so you have to sit through shit until the end
>album has 12-15+ songs
>only first 3-4 are good
>except for that ONE really good song later on
>which number was it? can't remember...fuck

>bands that put a 1-2 minute instrumental at the beginning that doesn't lead into anything

completely back-loaded

That's how I feel about Doolittle. Great beginning and middle, but everything after La La Love You is not nearly as good (not bad, but not as good as the rest of the album). Big Black kinda frontloads their albums.

Whoops, forgot to put 'also' in the last sentence
>>70705323
they only did this with with their 90s material
i thought the same shit with EVOL, sister, daydream nation, bad moon rising, confusion is sex, and their ep but this is done intentionally to make it easier to get into.

usually lots of noise at the end of their albums but they're in no way filler

Gouge away is a god-tier closing track you ultrapleb

Goo is actually really consistent. It does have most of the great songs sandwiched in the front, but it also has Disappearer and Titanium Expose to keep the latter half of the album of the album interesting.

i don't think it's front or back loaded i just think theres some useless filler like crackity jones

I used to think this but I realized I was a wrong man.
Why? (The Band)
>>70705323
Teenage Riot isn't even the best song on DN.
>>70709421
