Yeah, and also can vary band to band and how the music is mixed/mastered.

There were a few albums by the band “Elbow” that had this sticker on them that said something like “don’t turn it up”. I wish I could remember more about it - maybe other bands did it too. I seem to remember looking it up at the time, and it was essentially something about the mix not being overly compressed or normalized during mastering, so the final mix was extremely dynamic. Quiet bits were quiet, loud bits were loud.

Their albums always sounded beautiful.
