I've had a few albums that I never fully got through in one sitting. For example, Godspeed You! Black Emperor's LYSFLATH and F#A# Infinity I couldn't finish because I found them too boring. That's a reoccurring theme for me with albums I haven't finished. I also felt like dropping Hospice on my first listen, the only reason I finished it is because there was the occasional interesting moment.
But there are some albums that you don't get to finish because something happened. I never got to finish Wire's Pink Flag because my computer crashed while I was halfway through the album.
Then there are albums that I've given ratings to which, I admit, I haven't fully listened to them yet - at the time. I've redeemed myself a little, but there still are albums I listened to that I have yet to fully acknowledge each and every track.
So, are there any albums you haven't finished? _________________
Anyways, I do this more than I'd like to admit... ๐ซข There are just lots of albums that don't catch my interest. though I couldn't name any specifics..
If the music is so bad that I have to quit an album out of pain, disgust or mind numbing boredom before I reach the end it automatically gets bottom marks from me. Nil Poi. Off you go. See ya!
On top of that there have been countless times I have had to put an album on hold or listen to it later because I've had to do something else. Some of these I have forgotten to come back to. So yeah... there are many times such has happened.

That said I can completely understand getting bored by GYBE, they've grown on me admittedly, as have a few other post-rock artists, but I hated them at first and post-rock is just a genre I struggle to get through at times I guess, it's pretty boring to me quite often minus a select few. _________________
i agree with GSYBE being not fun to listen to. I've tried listening to them and find it's a chore getting through a whole song because they're so long. and though i'm pretty new to them, I think Wire is pretty good. I'd say give Pink Flag another chance. _________________ I AM A CRACKED MACHINE
I often listen to full albums on youtube before I dl them and I'll often stop them halfway through. I'm only taking a punt on whether I'll like it or not in the first place so if I'm not enjoying it I don't think there's anything wrong with stopping it and listening to something else, I'm an impatient person. _________________ Shut up mate you're boring!
When I tried to listen to What's The Story Morning Glory, Roll With It was so bad that I decided to drop it and never listen to Oasis again. Also Pedestrian Verse by Frightened Rabbit, that album is atrocious.
