To avoid confusion between an album title and title track, like 'Teenage Dream,' 'Born to Die' and 'Warrior.'

That's why we have those album, single, non single icons for every thread.
These "---" + '---' are just not neccessary, it's pointless really.

I'm sorry, I can't seem to see the icons on the "recent posts" bar on top, can you point it out?

Considering album titles are normally italicized, the '----' signifies an album title. Singles are always "---"

You're just using the wrong color scheme, that's why
