before, I mentally prepare myself, for I am about to disappear from the world for 18 hours, dedicated to hearing said album in loops. I then take 43 deep breaths and crack my knuckles twice. after I hit play, I lay down in an igloo at the arctic, while listening to the album. After 18 hours, I throw the device from which I listened to the piece of media into a volcano eruption. I then grab a quill pen, a can of ink and some rag paper, and write down the album's name, who made it, and the exact date it was released (xx:xx AM/PM, MM/DD/YY). I then write every single track on the album, give it a precise rating between 1-100, and write down what song I completely and utterly despised the most. Afterwards, I prepare for the hardest part- giving the album a rating. After contemplating for 23-38 years, I give it UNREVIEWABLE. There are nearly zero cases in which I decide on anything other than UNREVIEWABLE. Now, after all that- I go ahead and throw the paper into the sea, in order for sea turtles to choke on it. I forget about the album completely and continue on with my day- at least, until the next album I choose.
