Anybody else avoid listening to singles until the album comes?

I do, at all costs (unless it's gonna be a few months before the album comes out so I don't feel "left out" and "behind the times"). I like listening to as many songs as possible for the first time when listening to the album.

I try not to but usually ill just end up listening to it anyways. i try more to avoid 'leaked' songs though. sometimes it sucks once you know 3 or 4 of the recordings a few weeks before you can hear the whole album

I'm not a fan of singles but I usually listen to them at some point. I just try to avoid playing them out because I don't want to get the album and be like "Oh god, this song again."

listening to good music happens when sound hits ears, not when marketing campaign hits its date.
Plus if I hear a single, its either their fault or their campaign is working.
i see what you mean with your question but nothing is as good as it used to be and I cant remember last time I was "waiting on a album"

Yeah. What album are you waiting for? Or what style of music are you talking about? I agree with this guy, I never wait for albums anymore. One will come out, I'll find out about it somewhere random on the internet and then I go download it for free of course and be on my way.
SOMETIMES I get pumped if its from one of my favorite names, but I dunno now it feels like something is missing. I was really REALLY into Shpongle when their album Ineffeble Mysteries of Shpongleland came out and I didn't really get excited. Found out about it on here (lol) and then went to a site, dl'd it, listened to it probs a week later and it wasn't that great.

Listening to singles does not appeal to me at all. Except Yonkers, I listened to that a ton before Tyler's album came out.

I do this a lot. If I'm really anticipating sumn, I will force myself to overlook single releases. If I hear it on the radio or sumn, I'm not gonna trip about it. But most shit I listen to won't be on the radio.
