You can manually define how to split an album into sections. Each section is defined by its start time, its end time is implicitly the start of the next section.
Create a section file like ./sections.template.txt and reference it
with the --sections option.
Follow the format [hh:]mm:ss <Section name>, as in:
$ cat sections.template.txt
00:00 No 1 Party Anthem
04:01 Suck it and See
07:11 Fire And The Thud
10:29 The Bakery
12:44 Mardy Bum
15:29 Snap Out of It
18:58 Love Is A Laserquest
02:59:59 This is the End
