I've noticed a lot of people talking about how they listen to a song or two to get the idea of what a band sounds like.. I just think that you're never going to get the idea of how a band sounds that way. An album, to me, is the work of art, while the songs are bits and peices that make the whole. Think of the Mars Volta's De-Loused.. Or Sean Lennon's Friendly Fire and Into the Sun.. Also, QOTSA's single No One Knows and how it compares to their older and newer stuff, as well as the other songs on that same album.

Am I alone on this or are there others who agree with me on this?
You can't say you know what The Beatles sound like if all you know is "she loves you, yeah yeah yeah.."
