Exactly. I'd even say 40-50 minutes but it depends on the genre. A fast punk album is better in the 30-35 minute range and something slower or more creative where ideas take longer to develop could be at the longer end of the range.

I'd love to see your signature/links too, but the huge and obnoxious ones have caused me to block all signatures.
