Papa Universe
09.27.18 | jackpot! |
SteakByrnes
09.27.18 | I still gotta check that Idles album |
ZombieToyDuck
09.27.18 | Instrumentals are great, if the vocals click for you I'm sure you'll dig it steak. |
ZombieToyDuck
09.27.18 | so I implemented a system here...
✓=mid priority
✓✓=high priority
✓✓✓=top priority
✖= did not make the cut
also 6-9 are up |
neekafat
09.27.18 | Hell yeah def check 1 asap it's a massive grower, and totally get your rating for 2, only put it because I know you're into punk (: |
ZombieToyDuck
09.27.18 | will do buddy! |
ZombieToyDuck

09.27.18 | That Tropical Fuck Storm album is a fuckin wild experience, I love it |
ZombieToyDuck
09.27.18 | up to 17! and yeah steak will definitely give it a shot |
Drifter
09.27.18 | @zombie is that all you've heard from him? |
SteakByrnes
09.27.18 | Nice Joshy boi, and I figured I'd give you stuff that isn't metalcore hee hee |
tyman128
09.27.18 | dang, I guess I should start looking for better songs or something haha
oh well, hope you enjoy Shattered Glass more |
ZombieToyDuck
09.27.18 | hey man they are probably a lot more enjoyable to other's I've listened to a fair bit of metalcore though and sludgy stuff doesn't do much for me. |
BeyondCosby
09.27.18 | "From the Gallery of Sleep" by Night Verses (No Moon)
"Time Will Die and Love Will Bury It" by Rolo Tomassi (Alma Mater) |
ZombieToyDuck

Dewinged

Tribulation - The Lament (From "Down Below")
The Body - The West Have Failed (From "I have fought against it...")
Emma Ruth Rundle - Darkhorse (From "On Dark Horses")
|
BlazinBlitzer
09.28.18 | Legendary album picks Dewi. |
Dewinged
09.28.18 | I am actually surprised he didn't have any of those rated. |
BlazinBlitzer
09.28.18 | I think it's understandable that he hasn't heard these yet. They're not that well-known or discussed, even around here (though they need to be). |
neekafat
09.28.18 | The Body album is really great |
ZombieToyDuck
09.28.18 | sweet Dewi! I'll add those here and give em a listen! |
Dewinged
09.28.18 | Hope you like them brother |
ZombieToyDuck
09.28.18 | up to 21 done! |
Papa Universe
09.28.18 | I cannot wait for second recs, if there will be such. |
bgillesp
09.28.18 | Proposal: after you jam our 3, the number of good ones is the number we can rec as a second round, and we continue till we have 3 duds total. Ex: I rec'd 2 goodies and a dud, now I can rec two more. If you didn't like either, I'm done. If you like both I can rec two more, etc.....
Interested? |
ZombieToyDuck
09.28.18 | Possibly... If I get through these and don't get anymore I'll probably allow more recs |
ZombieToyDuck
09.28.18 | interesting idea bgillesp, I think I could vibe with that. |
ZombieToyDuck
09.28.18 | Let's do this, if any of your recs have 3 checks then you can rec a new album for each one I gave those 3 checks. So for example Papa got one with 3 checks so he can rec one more. |
Papa Universe
09.28.18 | one more song or one whole album? |
ZombieToyDuck
09.28.18 | same rules apply Papa you pick an album and a track and if it get three checks again you may rec another
also up to 25 is up! |
Papa Universe
09.28.18 | hmmm... |
Papa Universe
09.28.18 | it shall be rec'd U.S. Girls - Pearly Gates |
ZombieToyDuck
09.28.18 | Guys, listen to 25 immediately... so so good. |
Papa Universe
09.28.18 | listened to it, it's cooky and charming. not as crazy about it as you, but I will listen to the album. |
ZombieToyDuck
09.28.18 | It's just layers of goodness, I can't help it. |
SteakByrnes
09.28.18 | So I can rec one more? |
ZombieToyDuck
09.28.18 | yes sir anyone can for however many albums got 3 checks! |
SteakByrnes

neekafat

SteakByrnes
09.28.18 | Thornhill - Joy (Butterfly) |
Papa Universe
09.28.18 | so the ✓ distribution is arbitrary or there is a specific rating margin for each stage? |
ZombieToyDuck
09.28.18 | the more checks the higher the priority |
ZombieToyDuck
09.28.18 | ✓=mid priority
✓✓=high priority
✓✓✓=top priority
✖= did not make the cut
but if I gave a bunch it was cause the track blew me away |
Papa Universe
09.28.18 | yeah, I know, but in terms of a rating. like 3.5-4.0 is ✓, 4.1-4.5 is ✓✓ and 4.6+ is ✓✓✓, or something of the sort. or do you distribute the ✓ more or less liberally |
Papa Universe
09.28.18 | okay, I'll cut to the chase, you gave LA Salami a 4.5, but it has less ✓ than some songs with 4.4 rating. I might be butthurt... or it's hemorrhoids |
ZombieToyDuck
09.28.18 | oh whoops... I like your system haha, ill adjust! |
ZombieToyDuck
09.28.18 | there we go, all fixed! |
CompostCompote
09.28.18 | Right Said Fred are releasing a comeback album this year, friend. I don't want to make you overexcited. But it will be the best thing since that guy who sliced all that bread. |
Papa Universe
09.28.18 | Right Said Fred, "Wrong" said the rest of the world. |
rabidfish
09.28.18 | HOP.ALONG.IS.A.O.T.Y. |
SteakByrnes
09.28.18 | I don't like the new system because now it means I shouldn't have gotten more recs smh |
ZombieToyDuck
09.28.18 | oh whoops i meant to bump your 4.4 to a 4.5 steak |
SteakByrnes
09.28.18 | nice, also did you get my last rec |
Papa Universe
09.28.18 | The Skull Eclipses - Pillars |
tyman128

tyman128
09.28.18 | no, I put Fit For a King and got an x again so go me |
tyman128
09.28.18 | and I literally just thought of an amazing song but I spoke too soon |
Papa Universe
09.28.18 | oh right, didn't notice that.
what did you want to rec? maybe you can convince someone to rec it for you. |
tyman128
09.28.18 | Night Verses - From the Gallery of Sleep - “Vice Waves” |
Papa Universe
09.28.18 | gonna listen to that album now, cause I still haven't done that. |
tyman128
09.28.18 | it’s in AOTY contention for me |
Sowing
09.28.18 | can definitely vouch for 1 and 3
also check mewithoutYou - "Julia" from their upcoming [Untitled] LP. |
Sowing

Allelic - In Blissful Ignorance (Metal/Folk)
Let's Eat Grandma - Donnie Darko (Pop/Electronic)
Shakey Graves - Dining Alone (Indie-Folk)
|
bgillesp

tyman128
09.29.18 | no rating tho |
Divaman
09.29.18 | Of Montreal - Paranoic Intervals/Body Dysmorphia
"who knew a 7 minute track could glide by without ever getting tiresome?"
That's because it's really two tracks in one, "Paranoic Intervals" and "Body Dysmorphia", heh heh. They do this throughout the whole album -- if you look at their tracklist, every track is actually two songs stitched together like that. Guess it's some kind of experiment for them. |
Divaman
09.29.18 | Chvrches - Graffiti
"Wait, didn't this album have like a 2.5 average?"
Yeah, I feel like the site has this album horribly wrong. But then, I feel that way a lot.
Glad you liked the recs. |
Papa Universe
09.29.18 | Zombie, when you get through the actual albums, could you also write out a quick write-up on them here? |
Veldin
09.29.18 | White is Relic needs more love here, it's one of my favorites this year and one of Barnes best, behind Paralytic Stalks |
ZombieToyDuck
10.03.18 | getting on this guys!

10.05.18 | Pleased you like that Of Montreal song, album is so good & under-appreciated on here seemingly. Tropical Fuck Storm is excellent as well.
Skeletonwitch - Fen of Shadows (if you're still taking recs), this isn't actually my favourite song on the album (anymore) but it's a great introduction. |
ZombieToyDuck
10.05.18 | Yes Anatelier! Hit me up with three, if any of them get three checks you get another go for each one that gets them! |
