i know people that will skip through an LP or an album just as much as they would music on an iPod. it's not so much the format of the music, more the quality of it. if you don't like a song enough, you aren't going to listen to it. it's not that you're letting the music industry down, actually quite the opposite. you have no obligation to listen to all the songs on a CD if they do not interest you. too many artists have only a few really great, quality songs on an album, the rest is all filler crap. THAT'S what's killing the art of music. i can think of MANY awesome double LP's on which i adore each and every song- how is that indulgent? The Who's "Tommy", The Rolling Stones' "Hot Rocks", Jesus Christ Superstar, The Beatles' "White Album"- again, it's the quality of the music, not the format that matters. Artists who can create a double LP that will hold your attention through every song are much more than "indulgent", they are simply proving their creative genius.

but overall, this mix is alright. good sonic youth and melvins choices. i might skip through this CD simply because i passed out of my Seattleite phase after about 10th grade. it's nothing personal.

I really like this. I really do..this is nice thoughtful work. <33
