I've just discovered an incredibly cool thing to do with playlists: concept albums. Now, your average concept album will tell a story. "The Wall" (although every Pink Floyd album is really a concept album), the Who's "Tommy," David Bowie's "Ziggy Stardust," the Moody Blues' "Days of Future Past," the Beatles' "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band" (all right, the concept kind of breaks down somewhere around the second freaking song), Motley Crue's "Shout At The Devil" (can't quite make out the story in that one, but Chuck Klosterman says it's a concept album and that's good enough for me).
( Digression alert )

So I've been making up my own concept albums with many different artists. It's a good way to relax. I've created some themed lists, like "Places" (London Calling! I Don't Want To Go To Chelsea! Penny Lane! Rockaway Beach!) and "Outer Space" (there are a lot of David Bowie songs on this one). The ones that I am most pathetically proud of, however, tell stories.

( Fun with playlists )

I think I maybe need to stop fucking with playlists and do something productive.
