New Apple Music won't play all songs by same artist?

Okay, so to start off, I hate the new Apple Music. With a fiery passion.


Here's my issue:


I downloaded some music and put it on my iphone 6 after I had updated everything. The one this issue has happened with is a group called Adventure Club. My music is very well organized, so it's nothing to do with any of the info or titles or that stuff, but when I want to listen to all of my albums of Adventure Club, but I want to start with a specific song (the one in question is the only song on the "album"), it won't move to the other albums to play their songs, it'll just repeat that song on that album. Does this make sense? Is anyone else having this issue or know how to fix it?

iPhone 6, iOS 8.4

Im new to these forums and don't know how to edit it, but I feel like the paragraph above is a bit confusing. Basically I want to listen to an artist and all their songs on their albums, but I want to start with a specific song, but with Apple Music, when I do that, it only plays the album that the song I selected is on, it won't shuffle or play the other songs from the other albums. I know if you click the little album photo on the left it will play all the songs from the artist, but to get to the song I wanted to start off with, I have to click next a hundred times to find the song I wanted. Anyone know how to solve this? Or is it more crap programming from Apple?

To play all songs by an artist when in Artist view, click the picture or album art to the left of their name. This will start playing a random song and then you can click the Mini Player at the bottom and you should then see the option to shuffle if it's not already enabled.


Alternately you can use Siri to say "Shuffle all music by The Beatles."


To play all songs by a particular artist but wanting to start with a specific song, Go to Artists, select the album the song is on, select the song to start playing it. Go back to the view showing all the albums and click the three dots to the bottom right of the artist's picture and select Add to Up Next. Now all of their songs are added to the Up Next queue so when your currently playing song is complete, it will go to another song by that artist.
