    I don't mind them as long as they fade into the next song

    If its there to improve the album as a whole then yes. Some artists use them to tell a story for when you listen to the full album but you can always skip or delete them if you just want the songs

    Ah man, Chris Rock, the guy that said white people need to pay for their ancestor's (less than 1% of people in the US have ancestors that owned slaves, and most of them live in the south) actions.

    It tells more of a story with the skits and creates more of a concept for an album

    Love the skits on CD
    Don't care about them on LR
    Love them on Relapse
    Don't care about them on SSLP

    Overall, when they work I love them, and when they don't, I just skip them so it doesn't really affect my listening enjoyment too much one way or the other.
