I saw Mike Herrera of MxPx post this question on Twitter last night, and I am curious what people think:
Do young artists (median age 20) care about album sequencing? Song order.
I’ve talked about it before, but sequencing and the entire album experience are two of the things I love most about music. Listening to an entire work of art put together with care and precision, or seeing feeling like the flow is messed up if something is out-of-whack, has always fascinated me. The streaming/single based world makes me feel like an outlier sometimes.
