do people prefer albums where all the songs are the same, or all different

'cause i feel like these days, even if people refuse to admit it, most people just want an album to be a consistent 'bed' of music that they can put on, and even if it's not background music, they still want a pretty singular experience, like "oh yes you should listen to this good album because it's solid hype/chillout/moody jam, you can Depend on it"

whereas i dont think that many people go around like "i recommend it, its a solid Uh Collection Of Uh Different Uh Things By The Same Artist,"

@jk with very few exceptions you hit the nail on the head for what I prefer.

I went so far as to make a rule for my vinyl collection, the whole album has to be consistently awesome. If it's just a song or two I can purchase it digitally or queue it up in a streaming playlist.
