I heard that the new Chilli Peppers album is crap, pity coz that means there's only two worth listening to. I don't think the albums chart is a better representation of band (although I do like the current top three) more a different type of music listener. You get people who buy singles and you get people who prefer to wiat for album releases. Personaly I only buy singles for the b-sides or for work. Also albunms have much more longtivety because singles' sales really slow down a month after their release (generaly, Bryan Adams, Elton John and Frakie Goes To Hollywood are three massive exceptions), whereas an album will go on selling heavily for several months. It's just two completely different markets.
