Actually that is the standard for being a release. Otherwise Dark Side of The Moon wouldn't be the same. Also "Heroes" from Bowie, even if its from over a period of time, he wrote the songs as they were meant to fit on the album.
Hell, actually most albums are made of these, unless we count Vanilla Ice album(s?).

Well, some people don't self-edit very well and just throw a bunch of random things on bandcamp as they do them.  Or some people release "a collection of chiptunes I've written over the past 3 years".  Or like Knife City's "Magfest Sucky EP" which was described as "here's a bunch of songs I'll probably never play live again" (or something like that).  (Not that I'm knocking that magfest sucky EP...there are some cool tracks on it.)

I was just beating the drum of Quality Control.

Can you go a little more in depth on this? My only experience with the term is in regards to museum displays.

I probably should have said "selected" or "chosen," hahaha. 

I just meant that (in my opinion) a release shouldn't just be everything you're written over a period of time, but a carefully selected group of songs that are not only your best output, but that sort of, you know, go together.  I guess sort of like a museum exhibit--a collection of related pieces by an artist.  Or whatever. Yeah.
