Album view loading isn't smooth

When I launch Music, this is what I see in the album grid as it loads:

• Window appears with "no music found" empty placeholder where the album grid should be
• A split second later, the album labels appear, with no artwork or placeholders where the artwork will go
• A split second later, white squares with three dots appear for some albums (these are the albums for which no artwork can be found)
• A split second later, the artwork for all the other albums appears
• A split second later, the three dots icon is replaced by a music icon

The number of different visual transitions makes the loading process feel messy and not smooth.
