06.12.17 | i probably miscounted most of this but i don't feel like listening to all of them again to check again. it got to the point where my mind started to make up pickslides in other stuff I was listening to |
Ebola
06.12.17 | feature this |
Ebola
06.12.17 | For the record, Sufferer would have 3.15 per song, not 2.15. Awesome list and awesome work |
butcherboy
06.12.17 | You'll start hearing a pickslide every time the doorbell rings or your phone buzzes |
onionbubs
06.12.17 | i heard one in an autechre song thanks to this
oh shit thanks for pointing out the typo thanks |
InFlamesWeThrash666
06.12.17 | not the hero we need but the hero we deserve |
Advent
06.12.17 | Pickslides: The Band |
KManoc1

DungeonBoy

FullOfSounds

Ocean of Noise
06.12.17 | "i heard one in an autechre song thanks to this"

Toad
06.12.17 | where is macman

Feather
06.12.17 | Very important list! |
Divaman
06.12.17 | Seems like we found the right man for the job. Your service is appreciated onionbubs. |
dbizzles
06.12.17 | Very good list. We are much in debt to your efforts. Overall total is ridiculous haha. |
wwf
06.12.17 | Beautiful |
Joeman82
06.13.17 | A true god amongst men. The ultimate callenge would be to see someone do a bass drum to snare drum ratio on each song/album. Lmao |
renegadestrings
06.13.17 | i'm still figuring out how a pickleslide is performed |
onionbubs
06.13.17 | basically just scrape your pick against the strings. that's kinda all it is
use a heavier pick bc it wears away at the pick and will like snap a lighter one in half if done too much (if done like more than once really) |
SCREAM!
06.13.17 | This is up there for best sput lists
Well done sir your efforts were not in vain (well given the (in)significance of the title they kind of were but shhh) |
ScuroFantasma
06.13.17 | "will like snap a lighter one in half if done too much (if done like more than once really)"
What pansy ass picks are you using |
onionbubs
06.13.17 | i found a super super light pick on the ground once and tried picksliding with it. that pick broke into like 3 pieces soon after |
Muppelope
06.13.17 | Can you do this for Gojira? and Chevelle? |
onionbubs
06.13.17 | idk if i've ever even heard a note of a gojira song tbh
i'm pretty sure i'm not gonna do this again for anything, unless i think of something that would be kinda funny |
NordicMindset
06.13.17 | I can't stop hearing pickslides now thank you for doing this |
Ocean of Noise
06.13.17 | This is your legacy now, bubs. Decades from now, long after you've moved on to bigger and brighter things in your life, the cockroaches of SputnikMusic will still be worshipping you at the shrine of this very list. I hope you're happy, because they certainly will be. |
MonotoneMop
06.13.17 | Now supercut all of these together and put the recording over Roadside. |
TVC15
06.13.17 | That's so much |
onionbubs
06.13.17 | nah I'd supercut them and put them over hero of war prob |
bgillesp
06.13.17 | I listened to their discog the day of Wolves and it hurt so much to listen to Endgame. The pick slides were brutal. |
bgillesp
06.13.17 | Also do Gojira [2] |
Flugmorph
06.13.17 | dude you're fucking crazy |
onionbubs
06.15.17 | by listening to the band today i realized i actually counted some of them wrong wow |
botb
06.15.17 | this is hilarious |
Spec
06.15.17 | Is a pickleslide the "eeerrrrrrrrr" sound when you slide your pick down a string? I've literally never heard the term before. |
sempiturtle
06.15.17 | is "pickleslide" a meme that i'm missing |
onionbubs
06.15.17 | it's that like scraping falling sound yeah
next time you listen to this band you'll know |
SCREAM!
06.15.17 | Yeah there's one right near the beginning of Alive and Well (because it's only appropriate they start their first album off with one right?) |
onionbubs
06.15.17 | their last album is gonna close with a pickslide |
SCREAM!
06.16.17 | If the last album doesn't close with a ten minute ambient track composed of nothing but pick slides imma be mad |
onionbubs
06.16.17 | I actually really wanna hear that now. the perfect finale to a pickslide laden discography
tho it would need to feature tim saying some empty political shit as well |
NordicMindset
06.16.17 | This is Noyes. |
DinosaurJones
06.16.17 | Holy shit.
It occurs to me that I'm in a pop-punk band and never pickslide. I don't know if this is good or bad. Opinions plz. (opinions consisting of "stop playing pop-punk" will be considered null and void) |
SCREAM!
06.16.17 | stop playing music |
DinosaurJones
06.16.17 | Well played. |
onionbubs
06.16.17 | it's really not good or bad either way the pickslides don't necessarily detract from the quality of the music. this band is just ultra excessive with them |
NordicMindset
06.16.17 | well once you can't stop hearing them it becomes annoying. I wish I never knew what a pickslide was |
onionbubs
06.16.17 | u tellin me! |
onionbubs
06.16.17 | I was listening to as the eternal cowboy recently, heard a pickslide, instinctively opened a notebook, wrote a tally, then re evaluated what ive done with my life |
dimsim3478
06.16.17 | this list is the fucking greatest idea ever conceived |
DinosaurJones
06.16.17 | Now go count the RAH's in Converge's discog. |
onionbubs
06.16.17 | nah but I'm thinking of eventually counting every time danny brown yells "STUH" across his albums |
DinosaurJones
06.16.17 | That's a good one too. |
TVC15
06.16.17 | "Now go count the RAH's in Converge's discog."
I'm currently planning on doing a ruhdux of my list which did that |
theacademy
06.18.17 | the second and fifth pickslide in architects are so dope |
Orb
06.18.17 | id laugh if i knew what a pickslide was tbh |
onionbubs
06.18.17 | kinda surprised by how many people don't know what a pickslide is |
NordicMindset
06.18.17 | it's not a commonly heard term if you don't play |
theNateman
06.18.17 | I found a copy of Rise Against's the unraveling on CD at a Deseret Inustries once. Still regret not picking it up |
onionbubs
06.19.17 | holy shit just noticed the sput fb page posted this lollllllllllllllll |
AmericnZero02
06.19.17 | Haha this list is so great. |
NordicMindset
06.20.17 | I was listening to Lifetime and I heard a pickslide and it ruined everything |
XingKing
06.20.17 | 10/10 list. I hate Rise Against but this was fascinating data. |
Drifter
08.10.17 | Y'know mr onion when I get back into master p I think I will do an uhh count just for you (: |
onionbubs
08.11.17 | you need to go through the pain that i've endured by making this agreed
i've been ignoring this band ever since |
Drifter
08.11.17 | Lmaoooooooo |
ianblxdsoe
08.11.17 | this is still the greatest fucking list of the year thank you |
Aerisavion
08.11.17 | I completely missed this. How the fuck did I miss this. |
bgillesp
11.17.17 | So Gojira pickslide count when? LOTY [2] |
bloc
11.17.17 | Still waiting on Architects BLEGH count |
onionbubs
11.17.17 | that’d be a good one but idk if i wanna subject myself to that much architects |
Feather
11.18.17 | I do kind of wanna listen through their discog... maybe I'll sacrifice myself for it |
Snake.
11.18.17 | can someone please explain to me what a pickslide is because i'm dumb and overthinking everything rn |
bgillesp
11.18.17 | When you slide a pick up or down the guitar string and it makes a sort of screech sound |
Aerisavion
11.18.17 | I’m still so happy this list exists < 3 |
swipenet
11.18.17 | Can I pos this |
onionbubs
11.18.17 | 1 out of 1 thought this review was well written |
swipenet
11.18.17 | Yeah! |
AsleepInTheBack
11.18.17 | This is the most ridiculous list and I love it |
neekafat
11.18.17 | legendary list |
tellah
12.22.17 | best list of the current year, gonna have to revisit satellite for the juicy slides |
tellah
12.22.17 | It seems like they started picksliding more and more as their career progressed. Is there an argument that pickslides correlate with musical maturity? |
QuinnObropta
09.05.18 | In some of these they fit so many in by layering them. I know on the t/t for Wolves there's three at the same time. |
onionbubs
09.05.18 | oh yea this is a thing |
Feather
09.06.18 | Seeing them live on Saturday, will count the slides and report back. Guessing that there will be even more than the studio renditions! |
Drifter
10.09.18 | @feather wya |
Feather
10.10.18 | Shiiiiiii drank too many old styles and shouted every word too loud to count the pick slides |
Flugmorph
10.10.18 | "Average ≈ 2.3 pickslides per slide"
still makes me laugh |
kalkwiese
10.10.18 | This list would be missed m/ Great one |
Storm In A Teacup
06.02.21 | This list is indeed amazing and is also more entertaining than the last two or three Rise Against albums. |
Supercoolguy64
06.02.21 | More like their whole discog amirite |
Feather
06.02.21 | I was thinking about this list the other day and really wanna recreate it as a "BLEGH" count in Architects songs |
onionbubs
06.02.21 | i was actually thinking about doing exactly that once but didn't as i didn't care for architects at all at the time
now i love architects (well, their best material at least) but the amount of bleghs are a bit less bountiful than i anticipated. still, a worthy idea for the follow up given both bands have songs named after each other. go for it dawg continue the legacy |
WatchItExplode
06.02.21 | List is goated and clearly illustrates why siren song is the best rise against album |
Trebor.
06.02.21 | lol this rules |
kalkwiese
06.02.21 | Still one of the best lists on sput |
Rolling Girl
06.02.21 | How am I just finding out about this? |
ashcrash9
06.04.21 | yo bubs, you gonna add the new album to this so the rest of us don't have to listen to it more than once (or at all?)
facetious, I know, but I am curious |
Feather
06.08.21 | If he isn’t, I volunteer myself to do the research. I actually enjoyed my first listen of the album |
onionbubs
06.08.21 | would not mind a volunteer lol. i tried counting but i got way too bored before even finishing the first half that i entirely lost track so pls go for it |
alamo
06.08.21 | lol |
onionbubs
06.13.21 | finally sat through the new one. didnt even have a comical number of pickslides smh |
JohnnyoftheWell
06.13.21 | you are the best user |
tellah
09.25.21 | i still think about this list every now and then |
kalkwiese
09.25.21 | One of the best lists, that's a fact |
Storm In A Teacup
09.25.21 | This list and the fall season just made me realize a huge Rise Against listening party for the next month just started about...60 minutes ago. |
parksungjoon
09.25.21 | it did? |
Kompys2000
09.25.21 | This list should get re-featured every time they drop a new album |
Uzumaki
09.25.21 | Awww, I missed the listening party? |
