That comment was flippant obviously. I can appreciate lyrics. I just don't think the lyrics on a concept album are anywhere near as important as the music.



I also don't think that musical theatre can be compared to concept albums..

Eh, concept albums are like a midstep between musical theater and a regular album, so I don't really see why not



The ArchAndroid tells a story and sets it to music



I'm not saying you should like this, just that the enjoyment gained from this has nothing to do with a book

she could perform this live with proper setting and all, it can be compared to musical theatre



if a musical theatre can be captured, it'd be a concept record



the divide isn't big

I really want this to be a thing now. It seems like the type of thing Monae would do.

Too much studio magic to pay for

some concept albums performed in a live setting can get very close to musical theatre tbh

And if I remember correctly this album is mostly live instruments so it might cost a lot to support all the performers but it's definitely a realistic deal

GhostB1rd's like 58 years old, I think he's way too old to decide what's cool

I would think that lyrics would be MORE important in a concept album than a regular record? Like aren’t the lyrics what carries the concept?

Sure, but I don't think this album is hyped just for it's lyrics. It's music.

Ars is a gay who listens to Primus. That's the definition of an outcast.
