This is probably the most confusing place when using an apostrophe - when the title of something ends in a plural. Because to me, when referring to the album Tides, you're referring to the singular album, which would make me think that even though there's a plural in the title, the singular possessive form should be used. Even more-so when it's not just one word, for example Twin Peaks.
To be clear, I think the correction of Tides' is grammatically correct (or at least, that's what I've been told), but I struggle to accept that.
I'd say something cool about the album instead of just apostrophes but I still need to listen to it, which I shall do shortly.
I get what you're saying and from a written point of view it would make sense, but if you tried to pronounce it in a possessive way it would just sound like "tidesis".
I've always gone off of this:
