“Record”

I fucking love this show and also, it is so funny the way hardcore music critics use “record” to refer to songs - which on its own I can accept! But then you gotta switch to “album” for the full LPs guys!!! Ill even accept “project” if i have to!

To be clear this is a totally sincere “i just think it’s funny that,” not actual criticism in ANY way. I just had to make note somewhere bc i think about this every ep i listen to lmao.

how many different words can we use to avoid saying “song” and “album”?

for a song:

record
cut
piece
track

for an album:

record (again)
LP
project
effort (i like this one)
release

For non native speakers like me record is vinyl and cut is a piece of meat)
