We've got Block-Rockin' Weekend coming up this Memorial Day holiday — it's where we play blocks of three songs in a row by the same artist. It's kind of like The Current's version of binge-watching.

I mean, I've seen The Sopranos in its entirety probably four or five times; I'll wait just enough time to go back when it'll be refreshing. I'll also binge-watch Project Runway, and Six Feet Under, the best show ever written for television.

But music wise, I think that certain bands — and it doesn't mean necessarily that they have this huge discography — but there's three records that you get your hands on, and they get in your head, and you're done. You forget to eat. You don't wash. It's terrible.

But I want to know what you guys consider binge-worthy music — music that you could listen to in really big chunks.

Let us know! And binge on.
