ALBUMS

The Twilight Singers - Dynamite Steps

(8/25)

8 out of 25 isn't that great of a score, but if that's a positive scre, try to imagine what a 25/25 album would sound like!

it helps that tracks I nominated are near the beginning, lol

It helped me too!

Has anyone added their tracks to the playlist? If not I'll update the those from the thread later.

I added a couple, I'm trying not to confuse the playlist with my spreadsheet. I might miss including some noms.

these are the frustrating weeks for me - itching to nominate but forcing myself to hold off so i get to nominate ~lost gems~ after lovely fellow posters have dealt with my obvious favs

This. But seriously, a day in and 75% of my potential votes in any universe have already been dealt with, from CREEP/Nina Sky, to Dawn Richards, to Machine Drum to Patrick to Los Camp! to LoveLove v HateLove.

So now...even if I wanted to nominate right away, I think I'll have to spend time figuring out what lost gems to pick, since the obvious stuff has been mostly covered.

Also, is furnace mane j0rdan? or Rev? or someone else entirely...

Will do mine in 5 track blocks - none have been nominated by anyone else yet so some will have to miss out

furnace mane is Rev, right?

for a minute then i thought "huh when did lex start liking los campesinos? sandbox dun changed everything"

yes, rev

I haven't been tracking albums, but we're at well over 200 tracks already.

Sorry. Formerly Alex in Montreal, which was due for retirement. Especially since there was an all-lowercase "alex in montreal" who got confused and annoyed when I first joined ILX four years ago or whatever.

oh my actual god this young bleed album

Yeah it's great!

That and (curiously) the Wild Beasts album were my two big ILM-assisted discoveries in the interregnum between ILX and Sandbox.

for a minute then i thought "huh when did lex start liking los campesinos? sandbox dun changed everything"

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>:(

young bleed album is stellar - that and the cousin fik album are the two rap albums i've found recently that have really hit the spot for me

siiiiiiiigh wild beasts tim? really?

your indie side is heartbreaking

Why can't he like Wild Beasts in peace?

Re: spotify list
Sam - you'd added the wrong version of the Art Department track which I nominated so I've added the right one and deleted the one you put in there (at least, I think I have - I'm not really sure how editing someone else's playlist works).

cool

omg

if you havent played "Nyan Cat!" in Spotify yet, do so now and look at the progress bar

i like how you say that as if we are all forks

haha

Bayou Goo seems like an amalgam of Lex and r|t|c, with the caveat that I'm pretty sure r|t|c wouldn't vote for a couple of those.

And wouldn't have a "212" related user name.
