I've listened to this Built to Spill album several times these past few weeks and I swear by the time the record is over I can't remember a single thing about it. It's like some odd micro cosmological void. I can't remember single a note or a single word. I swear it's been about a minute since the last listen and it's like the last half hour never happened.

And it's not like it was a horrible record or anything. It's not forgettable in a 'well that record has really boring chops and not a single song is interesting so I don't care if I ever remember it' way. I have a memory of liking it, and enjoying it. At least I think I do.

I'm not even reminded of what the songs sound like when I listen to it again. It's not like I get to track two and think to myself "Oh I remember that now." It's a completely fresh listen every time. And these are back to back listens. Sure I've forgotten records I haven't listened to in a few years or whatever, certainly not in the span of minutes or hours. I've never had anything like this happen.

Anyone experience this kind of forgetfulness?
