is it wrong to listen to music without playing an album

Breaks in the middle are sometimes warranted.

Once I'm done listening to an album straight through I add the songs I really liked from it onto a playlist.

i meant shuffle or listening to only some songs or skipping some songs as well.
breaks don't really damage the flaw for me either.

Yes, that's very plebeian way to consume music. It is never warranted unless you're listening to shitty top 40 hits/singles that were never meant to be experienced in the context of a whole to begin with.

I feel like I should listen to an album straight through first, but after that I'll listen to it as I please.

You can listen to music however you want though, don't let /mu/ tell you how to live your life in any way, at all.

If a song is so catchy I'll listen to it on it's own, but I've only done that for Death Grips.

I would never listen to a song off, say, ITAOTS out of order.

don't listen to this fag
the most patrician way to consume music is to do it whichever way you want to

nobody gives a shit
but be aware that some artists are arranging the songs on their album in a specific order that might be lost on you if you listen to it on shuffle
i.e. Hospice is probably better in order
of course, not all artists do something like that though

I listen to full albums to actually listen to them actively, but if I'm on /mu/ or doing something that would take my attention away from the music such that I can't digest it, then its shuffle all the way
