Album Quotes
-
We've gone overboard on every Queen album. But that's Queen.
Freddie Mercury
Queen
-
On every album I've put out, I've put diverse Canadian songs on it. They're not provincial album; my albums are national albums. There'll be a song about Saskatchewan and Vancouver and Nova Scotia on there.
Stompin' Tom Connors
-
Yeah exactly, so if anyone's bummed that The Mars Volta record's too simple or too pop, they can buy that album and it'll take them right back to that kind of sound. It's one of my favourite things I've ever worked on. It's pretty much a Mars Volta record, just without Thomas, Ikey, and Marcel. With Volta [Octahedron] was just our acoustic record that turned into our pop record.
Cedric Bixler-Zavala
At the Drive-In

It's funny, when people talk about the 70s I can tell you the year of every album but when it comes to the later efforts I can't remember the exact years, it's funny isn't it?
Steve Hackett
Genesis
-
One of the things that's kind of persistent is that I am the model on the cover of Tom Waits' album, Small Change.

I think music is a very personal thing and it doesn't necessarily have to be experienced one way or another, but the album experience is a completely different thing than the single experience.
Mark Stoermer
The Killers
-
We didn't see a cover of ours (in advance) until our fourth album.
Eric Carmen

There is a new album in the works, but we're taking our time on it.
Mick Mars
Mötley Crüe

I was always an album guy, not a greatest hits kind of guy, not so much a radio guy. I'm not saying one is better than the other but... It was like reading a novel but shorter than that. You go into a world for an hour and you absorb yourself into it rather than just passively listening and flipping through this and that.
Mark Stoermer
The Killers
-
A concert is not a live rendition of our album. It's a theatrical event. I have fun with my clothes onstage; it's not a concert you're seeing, it's a fashion show.
Freddie Mercury
Queen
-
God built the Earth in seven days and seven nights, that's how I'm going to approach doing the album. So when it's time for me to actually finish up the album and do final cuts of everything, I'm going to line it up in seven days and seven nights. I'm going to document it, out the footage out, show people it's not a fluke.
Ahmad Balshe
-
I thought I'd go away and make one album, but it was extended. The album did so well, and they wanted another album. I was on a high. You make hay while the sun shines, and I was doing it, and you think about yourself; that's what you do.
Ronan Keating
Boyzone
-
It's a continuation. It feels like we were in the studio for 16 years. It was bottled up and this album was an outpouring.
Chris Stein
Blondie
-
I've always felt you are only as good as your next album or next show. What you've done is done. When you get a gold record, you hang it on the wall, and then it's like, 'Yeah, next?'
Joe Perry
Aerosmith
-
The vocal parts are really interesting because it's the first album that we - as a band - haven't been aware of what Thom's singing about. He didn't talk about his lyrics.
Ed O'Brien
Radiohead
-
So you kind of know that anytime we want, we could do a tour without even an album to promote, which is kind of reassuring, cos that's what most people are coming to see - just us doing the old classics.
Rick Savage
Def Leppard
-
I want to leave an album behind that is classic, that people in 50 years will refer to and pass on to their children. An album that you never bored of.
Adele
-
Sometimes, I would love to record a super – quiet album, but for some reason, I never really got to that because my heart lies with the heavy stuff.
Floor Jansen
Nightwish
