That reminds me -- @ fountainhead there was a guy I saw out of the corner of my eye several times who I thought was you, and everyone agreed that it did sort of resemble you, but that you were way cooler. He was kinda stuffy.

Oh and this might be of interest to Nick at least, but maybe jvc and others? It's the internet posting of the final album by the predecessor band to my friends' group SAH that you saw... more noise pop/rocky and with a real singer but with many of the same elements.

hey remember when we used to have our blog? those were different times, eh. i was just thinking that we should compile a chilxors favorite things 2011 mix but where would we put it?
― league of women voters, Monday, 12 December 2011 15:03 (twelve years ago) link
thanks dan, i'll give that a listen laterare you thinking music or things, amanda?
― n/a, Monday, 12 December 2011 16:00 (twelve years ago) link
music -- i don't actually have any favorite things from 2011
― league of women voters, Monday, 12 December 2011 16:02 (twelve years ago) link
like "products" or w/e
I'm going to give that Shady Hinting Shady a listen later as well, sounds interesting. I'd be curious to know what the chilxors liked this year.

i feel like most of my favorite albums or whatever this year are pretty boring choices, things i see lots of other people liking, but maybe i can think of a few underrated albums or songs
― n/a, Monday, 12 December 2011 16:06 (twelve years ago) link
where should we gather these things? should we do only new or also new-to-you? no bashfulness, just music you bugged over in 2011
― league of women voters, Monday, 12 December 2011 16:06 (twelve years ago) link
lowest-tech option would just be a shared google doc with links to youtubes?
― n/a, Monday, 12 December 2011 16:07 (twelve years ago) link
but will anyone listen to them that way? should we each choose 3 tracks?
― league of women voters, Monday, 12 December 2011 16:10 (twelve years ago) link
will jesse choose the same antlers song 3x? will anyone listen to my songs if they are over 15 min long?
― league of women voters, Monday, 12 December 2011 16:11 (twelve years ago) link
dunno, sure, probably, sure
― n/a, Monday, 12 December 2011 16:17 (twelve years ago) link
Ok then
* three tracks * find a youtube or link of some kind
remaining questions: * only new in 2011 or also new-to-you? either is ok with me. * who's gonna make the doc
― league of women voters, Monday, 12 December 2011 16:22 (twelve years ago) link
i'd be ok with a grooveshark or spotify playlist also, though not everyone has spotify
― n/a, Monday, 12 December 2011 16:25 (twelve years ago) link
we could include spotify/grvshrk links in addition to youtube links?
― league of women voters, Monday, 12 December 2011 16:52 (twelve years ago) link
if it's only three songs i think i can manage
i'll try to stick to released in 2011 unless someone tells me otherwise (afaic this includes comps of previously unavailable material and/or available only in difficult to collect formats -- like the mark mcguire comp and my old friends at soundway)
i think i am done with my list tbh, if i only get 3 songs!!
― league of women voters, Monday, 12 December 2011 16:54 (twelve years ago) link
I will participate.
I am also looking forward to sharing my best-of-2011 playlist on Spotify.
― jaymc, Monday, 12 December 2011 16:56 (twelve years ago) link
I'll contribute three songs, that shouldn't be a problem.

i feel like most of my favorite albums or whatever this year are pretty boring choices, things i see lots of other people liking
P. much but I'll look over my playlists and see what I can find.
Oh wait I've got one already!
― thejenny, Monday, 12 December 2011 17:07 (twelve years ago) link
i also made the font larger and more orange on yours because i want it to look less like a work doc and more like fun :)

Dammit, my one song is from 2010. Fuck!!! FUCK!
― thejenny, Monday, 12 December 2011 17:15 (twelve years ago) link
I've narrowed it down to like a dozen.
― jaymc, Monday, 12 December 2011 17:17 (twelve years ago) link
I hate music.
― Sandbox Jesse, Monday, 12 December 2011 17:18 (twelve years ago) link
My second choice was also released in 2010.
2011: the year the music died.
I'm going to put all Pit Bull songs.
― thejenny, Monday, 12 December 2011 17:19 (twelve years ago) link
As usual, I am overthinking this. Should I focus on songs that you guys probably have not heard?
― jaymc, Monday, 12 December 2011 17:22 (twelve years ago) link
I'll see what I can do but, yeah, I fear all my choices would be boring, like PJ Harvey.
Listening to the cosmic dead as we speak and enjoying it.
― well in (advance johnson), Monday, 12 December 2011 17:22 (twelve years ago) link
i personally am focusing on the maybe less-heard, more underrated songs i liked (so i look cooler) but you should do what you want
― n/a, Monday, 12 December 2011 17:23 (twelve years ago) link
Hahaha, oh shit, two of my songs are eliminated. Well, only one was an exact repeat, but I feel like it would be silly to just throw on another track from the same album.
― I left my login in El Sandboxo, Monday, 12 December 2011 17:24 (twelve years ago) link
that psychic paramount album is amazing
― well in (advance johnson), Monday, 12 December 2011 17:26 (twelve years ago) link
I have been really lame wrt new music this year but I think I can remember up some favorites.
― tumblr whineys (Cuauhtemoc Blanco), Monday, 12 December 2011 17:26 (twelve years ago) link
Yeah I was going to throw up another Psychic Paramount track and THE SAME EXACT Cosmic Dead track.
― I left my login in El Sandboxo, Monday, 12 December 2011 17:27 (twelve years ago) link
DONEi left psychic paramount for nick because he was the one who told me to listen to it!!
Should I focus on songs that you guys probably have not heard?this is what i did
― league of women voters, Monday, 12 December 2011 17:27 (twelve years ago) link
HAHA sorry jvcthat song rules though amirite
you are very rite, glad to see someone else liking it tbh
Are we okay with live stuff that was just released this year?
― I left my login in El Sandboxo, Monday, 12 December 2011 17:29 (twelve years ago) link
sorry dudes. having trouble deciding on a third song.
― n/a, Monday, 12 December 2011 17:31 (twelve years ago) link
Blargh, I am already regretting the one song I put up. Can I get like 10 songs?
― jaymc, Monday, 12 December 2011 17:31 (twelve years ago) link
this doesn't have to be done todayi decided hastily, as i do with virtually every task of this nature -- just give us three songs you liked and you think we will like from 2011
if we want a round 2, we can do a round 2!!
― league of women voters, Monday, 12 December 2011 17:33 (twelve years ago) link
Yeah, I'm going to have to add mine tonight. Can't find YouTube links for a couple of mine and I'm having trouble accessing my Spotify.
― I left my login in El Sandboxo, Monday, 12 December 2011 17:36 (twelve years ago) link
OK, I included Yuck b/c it's probably my #1 song of the year, even though probably everyone that would like it has already heard it.
