| Build-an-Album II, R8 (P2): The Col-Train of Pain
Can things get more wild?? You know the answer... | | 1 |  | Blind Guardian
The God Machine
Whew, that took a hot minute! But we are now back to our regularly-scheduled shenanigans. On our previous round of madness, the genre was HOST CHOICE, and I chose POWER METAL. The theme was RADIANT REFRAINS, contestants had to create 8-track albums below 50 minutes, and the “dumb rule” forbade users from uttering the word ‘power.’ There were certainly a lot of close calls and near-misses, but overall teams were able to avoid falling into complete disarray. How did the scores ultimately pan out? What team managed to make it to the top? Time to dive in and see… | | 2 |  | Tad Morose
Modus Vivendi
Phero’s album: The only Achilles heel of this album was Dragonforce. Just… why? Why put that on this beautiful record? I guess it’s not THAT offensive, and there’s some merit in the insanely high cheese + nostalgia factor. This stood out for how it began in an ominous, dark sort of atmosphere, progressed to heavier songs, then found more delicate avenues to explore. Plenty of glorious refrains and great variety among them, from the opener’s simplicity to the captivating aura of track 7. Very impressive work here for the most part. 4.3 | | 3 |  | Imperial Circus Dead Decadence
MOGARI - Shi E Fukeru Omoi Wa Rikujoku Sura Kurai
Sloth’s album: This was a pretty heavy customer! Had plenty of headbangers that leaned towards darker, commanding riffs rather than the more polished tones of fellow records. Those beefy passages punctuated the grander choruses on the album and really made them shine, which definitely helped out. Plenty of riffs to go around too so no complaints there! It just needed a bit of an extra push to hit the next level. 3.8 (IMMUNITY IDOL) | | 4 |  | Nocturnal Rites
New World Messiah
Tyman’s album: Crushing and intense, tyman’s record was a true display of power in multiple forms. Whether it was via pure riffage or suitably resonating refrains, this album had it all. This was a lot of fun to listen to and a new adrenaline kick. It remained relatively strong from song to song, which helped to elevate it amongst most of the competition. Another great piece of work from the tyster. 4.1 | | 5 |  | Nightwish
Once
Sint’s album: Similar in some ways to Johnny’s album, Sint’s record featured variety in its refrains and the power metal styles on display, be it the more soothing tones of Nightwish to more epic, bombastic cuts in the second half of the record. This kept things consistently entertaining, different, and the ideal amount of cheesiness that can be expected from the genre. Great highlights and the songs, while not having a seamless flow, cooperated well together. Excellent stuff. 4.0 | | 6 |  | Adramelch
Broken History
Bg’s album: The master of earning points continues to earn points. It does not matter the genre, it does not matter the time of day, bg will score and that’s the end-all be-all. The consistency and the flow pulled through here, combined with plenty of powerful choruses. It also capped off with a closer that felt like a genuine conclusion, which wasn’t always accomplished in this round. Another solid, commendable effort. 4.2 | | 7 |  | Twilight Force
Tales of Ancient Prophecies
Steak’s album: This had more of a classical, whimsical feel to it that made it a joy to listen to! More of an older style that relied on an endless supply of riffs to carry proceedings, and for the most part, it worked wonders. The flow was great between the various tracks and their powerful choruses, each upheld by a great variety of vocalists. More variety in the individual tracks would push this further, as it felt a bit on the same-y side after a while, but not to the point where it took away too much from the overall excellent experience. 3.75 | | 8 |  | Children of Bodom
Hatebreeder
Johnny’s album: Compared to fellow submissions, this album made a noticeable effort to include different styles and represent unique approaches. For that along, it was enjoyable and a wonderful experience on the whole. It occasionally sacrificed cohesion in order to accomplish this goal, but the generally wide assortment of tracks mostly made up for it. Not too much to complain about overall; solid and capable of some neat highlights, although a few (like the closer) weren’t too noteworthy. 3.95 (10pt crate added) | | 9 |  | Blind Guardian
At the Edge of Time
Shemson’s album: Strong, robust power! Very epic power! This was similar to other albums in the competition that aimed for a heavier route on several songs. While that did pay off, it did sacrifice consistency to get there, and it didn’t feel as though the songs worked well together compared to fellow records. Good highlights for sure, but more of a playlist than a record to me. 3.7 | | 10 |  | Galneryus
Advance To The Fall
David’s album: Strong power vibes. Strong chorus vibes. Big, meaty songs… kinda. Some of these, such as track 5, were relatively ‘mid’ compared to the rest of the field, and they didn’t manage to stand out in any particular manner. It had highlights, such as the strong opener, but it felt too safe and by-the-numbers overall and didn’t aspire to greater heights. It needed more creativity in the songwriting instead of the linearity it displayed. 3.6 | | 11 | | Blind Guardian
The God Machine
You’ve successfully escaped the torture-chamber of host choice! Maybe things get better from here, maybe not. But they sure could get worse! That’s the beauty of it. Anyways, enough of that talk, let’s see placement results!
FIRST PLACE: Phero (4.3)
SECOND PLACE: bg (4.2)
THIRD PLACE: Tyman (4.1)
With that said, it’s results time! | | 12 |  | Black Peaks
All That Divides
While there were rumblings of ‘power’ being tossed around, I wasn’t able to spot them. That was, however, until I got some RECEIPTS on at least one verifiable violation. And to bend the rules like that? That’s a ten point penalty. But no need to hear it from me; it’s plain as day here: https://imgur.com/a/q4OhzkO
How did this affect the final tally? Let’s check it out…
DRUMROLL PLEASE…
Despite setbacks, FIASCO SHAMPIONS pull out the W!
This unfortunately means someone's gotta go. ERECT BUSINESS is on the clock. Debate amongst yourselves and determine who goes off the island. The responsibility lies in your hands. Full scores, hint results and such no revealed until after a decision is made. | | 13 |  | Macho Man Randy Savage
Be A Man
Back on track then! Now that we’ve firmly established ourselves in the realm of gimmicks, it’s time to move onwards. Keep in mind, however, that with the shrinking remaining playerbase, the clues shift in response: crates are now 5pt. bonuses and 10 pt. bonuses! With less players around, points come at a premium, making it imperative to maximize album success and not just the clues.
The guessing system remains, but will be limited to 2 guesses per day. Once they’re used up, they’re done and gone. Vanished. Gone. Reduced to atoms. Etc. Sound good? No? I don’t care. We are onto the next round, which I’m sure will be just as wacky as the last few. Let’s crank it up a little! First thing’s first: a spin of the ol’ genre wheel. | | 14 |  | Godspeed You! Black Emperor
Lift Your Skinny Fists Like Antennas to Heaven
I did a little twist, did a little turn, and we have wound up back at the wonderfully blissful world of POST-ROCK. You’ve heard of it; it’s that one musical category that, despite featuring of one of the industry’s worst cases of creative stagnation and lack of progress, is still truckin’ along god damnit! But hey; when the post-rock is good, it can be really really good. So it can’t be all doom and gloom. Put on a smile and dust off those old GY!BE demos—they’re REAL now!
I’m gonna lead in with the dumb rule, however, because it will add an extra twist to the usual genre proceedings. Rather than focusing on only one classification, we will be operating in DAILY DOUBLE for this round! This means that this round will contain TWO genres rather than a single one, which therefore requires contestants to focus on making an album that includes both in equal measure. Time for a second spin of the wheel… | | 15 |  | John Coltrane
A Love Supreme
I did another twist, another turn, and behold! It is JAZZ. Yes indeed, as if we are honoring the Lord and Savior that is John Coltrane. Praise be unto him. How does this work in the context of the competition? Your album will need to mix the two genres, dividing your album in half harmoniously. They don’t have to be EXACTLY cut in half—mix and match in whatever manner is best—but there will need to be equal representation. Thus, your genres are POST-ROCK AND JAZZ! Welcome to the madness, fellas. | | 16 | | Macho Man Randy Savage
Be A Man
The theme is going to be directly tied into the key dilemma of this particular round: IMMACULATE COHESION. Flow is always one of those things I like to hear in an album and it can offer some nice bonus points, but competitors will have to kick it up a notch; it’s now the primary focus for this battle. Managing the genre balance is key, and bridging the gaps between one song to the next artfully will lead to success.
The album you make will be 6 tracks long. Keep that in your mind. 6. Six. Sexy six. Rather than needing to be below 50 minutes, your album will need to be ABOVE 50 minutes this time. No more, no less—you know the drill by now. Considering how post-rock and jazz can often dip into longer track lengths, this should be pretty possible. Make it happen! And remember that, in this scenario, 3 tunes must be jazz and 3 must be post-rock. Divide ‘em up.
“Point of no return” rules remain active. | | 17 | | Godspeed You! Black Emperor
Lift Your Skinny Fists Like Antennas to Heaven
SUMMARY:
Genre = Post-Rock and Jazz
Theme = Immaculate Cohesion
Requirement = 6 tracks; more than 50 min. long
“dumb rule” = Daily Double; two genres active/must split album
“point of no return” = no repeat songs; can only use an artist once for your album | | 18 | | Black Peaks

10.07.22 | "As much as it pains me to say, I think David gotta go since it sounds like their album was the lesser of the bunch. I love you David"
Fair enough. Man competition has gotten tight, I really thought I had something with my playlist. I don't think I would've gotten a lot of points compared to everyone else for Jazz/Post-rock. Love ya too Steak, stay hard Erect Business!
As much as this competition stressed me out at times, I had a wonderful time playing! It was a lot of fun exposing myself to genres I hadn't tried out or even unfairly written off. Hell I walked away from this having a greater appreciation for power metal, never thought that would happen. Hope y'all have fun, and thank you Mars for setting this whole thing up! | SlothcoreSam
10.07.22 | Hey Mars, what were the 3 hidden tracks from last round?
And when will we know who got what. I know I got one, but no idea what prize I won. | SlothcoreSam

10.08.22 | Nice call on World's End Girlfriend, Sloth | bgillesp
10.08.22 | Gonna swap my Exquirla dibs for Hammock- I can almost see you | MarsKid
10.08.22 | Hello I am here, still busy but will answer questions as best as I can. I'll reveal the hints as well:
ITEM 1
First hint was a pretty clear reference to Michael Romeo. No surprises there.
Second hint was a reference to Wizard of Oz: a story about a girl lost in a fantasy world. If it's not about THAT, it must be about another similar story...
Which is the third hint. References Tim Burton, who directed the modern Alice in Wonderland movie. "The Looking Glass" by Symphony X is based off of the sequel to Wonderland.
ITEM 2
First hint was a reference to the common trope/joke of sacrificing stuff to a volcano, such as virgins... perhaps Virgin Steele, as some clued in on.
Second hint was a reference to the album Invictus. Not only is its cover a solitary figure, but it comes after the acclaimed Marriage of Heaven and Hell series. It's not part of a series and instead stands on its own.
Third is a reference to the saying of blood, sweat and tears, which phonetically mimics "Mind, Body, Spirit." This one was hard, but it was also where the 20 pts. lied.
ITEM 3
First hint was a direct reference to Blind Guardian. After all, how can you guard well if you're blind?
Second hint references Nightfall in Middle-Earth. It's a concept album based around Tolkein's Silmarillion, which is the lore book/precursor to The Hobbit and LotR. Unlike those pieces of media, it has not appeared as a trilogy.
Third hint directly references the song "Thorn." Some may consider their greatest enemy to be a thorn in their side.
| SlothcoreSam
10.08.22 | Got the 3rd,and was so close to the 2nd. | bgillesp
10.08.22 | Yeah these were tough, but I still think Blind Guardian- Bloody Tears is a great fit for the second one, lol.
The album theme being LOTR, the one ring has to be sacrificed into lava/Mordor, it stands alone above the other rings, and then bloody tears fills out the saying of blood sweat and tears. | bgillesp
10.08.22 | Gonna make my tentative submission here:
1. Duke Ellington- In a Sentimental Mood
2. Hammock- I Can Almost See You
3. Sigur Ros- #3
4. John Coltrane- A Love Supreme pt 1
5. Sonny Rollins- Oleo
6. Yndi Halda- We Flood Empty Lakes
Gonna be sad if I have to change this if I guess a clue song. It’s got a great flow going from super chill and relaxed in the first half to a spiritual awakening in the second.

10.08.22 | Hey Mars, the version of In a Sentimental Mood I want to use has John Coltrane playing on it, but it is a Duke Ellington song (written by him). Is it okay to use both it and a John Coltrane song? | Mort.
10.08.22 | interesting to see who digs good post rock and who likes crescendo core | Shemson
10.08.22 | Lol thanks BG I cried bloody tears when that wasn’t given as right | Shemson
10.08.22 | Dibs Godspeed - East Hastings
Still trying to understand post-rock better but this is long and 28 Days Later is one of my favourite films so those two things work! | DavidYowi
10.08.22 | "Ahh sorry David! I edited my comment :]"
Thank you, I have edited my comment as well :} | SlothcoreSam
10.10.22 | Ok, gonna change mine up somehow and get.
Miles Davis Quintet - It never entered my mind | MarsKid
10.10.22 | Gonna be updating with scores, hints, etc. In the meantime, some clarification for y'all:
1. The album being divided in half means 3 post-rock tracks and 3 jazz tracks must be included. It doesn't need to be EXACTLY in half (as in first 3 one genre, next 3 the other genre) and the track lengths do not need to equal each other. It's purely about individual song representation. Mix and match however you need to for flow purposes.
2. Saw this earlier, but you can't dib an entire album. That was never written into the rules and was more of a gentlemen's agreement kind of thing, but in the future, consider it explicitly forbidden.
Hit me up with any other question y'all get. | SlothcoreSam
10.10.22 | Does the immunity card carry over to other rounds? | MarsKid
10.10.22 | It does not, no. Only on a per-round basis. | SlothcoreSam
10.10.22 | Cool, thanks.
Gonna have to win it again then. | SlothcoreSam
10.10.22 | Why do most Post Rock songs end with 5 seconds of silence? Kills the flow! | Mort.
10.10.22 | jesus christ shut up you insufferable nerd | Mort.
10.10.22 | johnny was the guy whod ask if there was any homework | MarsKid
10.10.22 | You need a clear distinction. Don't blur the lines too much. | Mort.
10.10.22 | 'mort was the guy who handed in late bc he used the wrong glossary and had an existential meltdown when this dawned on him and he realised his contribution to the whole assignment was arbitrary anyway'
painfully accurate depiction of my neurotic tendencies, well done | MarsKid
10.10.22 | Okay updates have been made
Deadline gonna be SUNDAY.
You've been told. | bgillesp
10.10.22 | How about my John Coltrane question Mars? It the Duke track with him on it still okay? | bgillesp
10.10.22 | Also do secret songs still come from your ratings exclusively? | SlothcoreSam
