i give quite a few chances. gotta factor in your mood on playing the album, how concentrated are you, does the season match the theme/sound of the album?? plus more

like an obvious example: you can't expect to vibe to a dom kennedy album in the winter as you do in the summer. it's summer music, no late night drive can match that feel

Always three

if an album doesn't give me any reason to return to it, i won't

even if there's just one or two songs that i like ill prolly give it a few listens
