One of mine is Commit This to Memory by Motion City Soundtrack. I basically took the title verbatim and know the album word for word. And while I would love if it did, the rest of MCS’s stuff just doesn’t hit the same way.

And if you’re not an album person, maybe a period of time in the artist’s work? Whatever works for you.

*Lots of mentions of hit debut albums that subsequently petered out, which follows with the dreaded sophomore slump that hits many artists. Anyone with mid or even later career albums that stand alone? Those always intrigue me.

    I’ve never met a single person with that opinion. I remember being so disappointed when that album came out.

      I have never met a single person in my life that supports Putin as president of Russia yet here we are.

        Haha, yeah fair, but that mightn’t’ve been the best example you could’ve used.
