    i think im starting to understand why some people don’t really like this album.

    though to be fair, i don’t listen to music to read a story. So.

      I don’t even “hear” lyrics in songs! Is it typical for albums to have songs that tell an overall story?

        Yeah. There are Rock operas which are albums that tell a unified story, but not one which is meant to be acted out like an actual opera.

        The Doors Who album Tommy was one of the first to be billed as such. As well as most of what The Protomen and The Mechanisms have put out.
