'this album reflects where I am in my life right now' - that's another one

Yes very annoying. And also annoying is when fans automatically dismiss the artist's last album as rubbish or poor compared to the newly released one.

'Futuristic' is the one I hate the most. My perception is that if you have to call your own album futuristic then it generally means it's either dated by about 2-4 years or it's just plain stupid (like Metal Machine Music, for instance).

No it doesn't bother me. Always funny how the smallest things wind people up.

I don't mind them saying such things if it's actually true (Rihanna's last album was a good example - they said it would be edgier and it certainly was), but the album they are talking about does often end up being pretty much the same as the last.

Would you rather they said that "it sounds just like the last one. And the one before that. And the one before that."?

I don't follow you around mate. More often than not your threads (and you make a lot) are pointless. I just "point" this out.
I can't help it if I like to add a little variety from the "chart predictions" "first week sales predictions" "what will be the next single from the saturdays album" threads |

Biggest crime was MGMT who proudly stated that nothing on their second album sounded like "kids" or "time to pretend".
Sadly these were the 2 reasons most people bought the first record, and the main reason anyone had heard of MGMT. In other words we're going to reject everything that made us successfull and stick two fingers up to the two songs that will be paying our bills for the rest of our lifes.

I had the great pleasure (well, actually, horribly starstruck and tongue-tied awkwardness) of interviewing the godlike Mike Patton recently, and I kind of liked his description of his latest album, even though it didn't really make for good copy. Don't have the transcript to hand, but it was along the lines of "It's the thing I just did, and obviously I really like it, or I wouldn't have done it. Hopefully some other people will, which would be nice, but I have no idea whether they will or not".
