04.30.18 | help me finish this?? suggest anyone with more ratings. idk who would be #5. made for no reason other than curiosity, but respect to these bros for being such nerds. |
Hawks
04.30.18 | Damn I thought I had a lot of ratings. |
foxblood
04.30.18 | nah we're not even close. there are several users around 4k |
rabidfish
04.30.18 | sandwich how many of those ratings did you have to personally add to the database? |
foxblood
04.30.18 | I know it's quite a blowout. he's miles ahead in the race on his hovercraft while we're hoofing it |
bloc
04.30.18 | Impressive |
foxblood
04.30.18 | bloc you'd be in like 2nd place if you had ratings here |

Tyler.
04.30.18 | how do you people listen to new music this fast |
foxblood
04.30.18 | I feel like I've seen a couple more people around the 7k or 6k mark? |
foxblood
04.30.18 | they listen to 3 or 4 albums a day and never hear them again, idk |
Cygnatti

04.30.18 | did they all have their ratings wiped or something? doesn't count if they're currently gone but I do remember them having a lot. what's sach's alt? |
Jots
04.30.18 | i was joking tbh. but real talk i guess hep kat (7.5k ratings) could appear here |
foxblood
04.30.18 | oh shit you're right thanks, I knew he had a lot. I'll add him |
foxblood
04.30.18 | updated. Bumped Havey, rip. |
foxblood
04.30.18 | I personally find it interesting. |
mifzal
04.30.18 | I could've been on the top 1000 if the damn mods didn't wipe out my ratings every 2 years |
foxblood
04.30.18 | I think that anyone that has listened to that many albums is at least slightly interesting or must have some really amazing albums in their repertoire of musical knowledge that I don't know about. Discovalante, for example, must know a ton of fantastic albums that no one here knows about. And I'm curious if there are any users on this site that I don't already know about that have heard that many albums and this seams like the easiest way to find any, to ask for suggestions. |
foxblood
04.30.18 | do they wipe them without your permission? why, 1'ing stuff or something? |
foxblood
04.30.18 | I don't think so. Sandwich has very interesting taste to me since he listens to twee kinda stuff. He's listened to so much you can't really make that much of a generalization about his taste. There are def some genres he doesn't delve into at all though. anything hard for example lol.
Sinternet he's not that bad but yeah not totally crazy unique stuff or anything.
So to me they're both interesting and everyone on this site with over 3k or 4k ratings interests me somewhat regardless of what genres they like. Maybe that's weird, idk, I think listening to a shit ton albums is cool even if it's stuff I don't listen to. |
GhostB1rd
04.30.18 | Damn the hate Sinternet's getting I'm taking personal cause his taste is kinda close to home. |
bgillesp
04.30.18 | Stereochrome1
Idk who else |
foxblood
04.30.18 | lol kinda true though not gonna lie. Maybe you have to have blander taste to listen to that many thousands of albums lol idk. disco is def way too into Japan and should maybe branch out a little but he's still unique I think. A lot of Japanese music goes under the radar so at least someone is on here appreciating it. pots seems to really value aesthetic and abstract stylistic qualities. agreed he doesn't seem to enjoy going too extreme but that's ok he can flirt with the radio line sometimes if he wants to. I still have never seen anyone similar to him taste-wise. |
foxblood
04.30.18 | ooh shit I didn't know of Stereochrome1, damn. Pots gonna get bumped |
foxblood
04.30.18 | I'm not hating on sin at all |
mifzal
04.30.18 | "do they wipe them without your permission? why, 1'ing stuff or something?'
probably was a glitch, but happened twice. |
foxblood
04.30.18 | stereo has 8984 ratings and only 123 album additions/edits, that's kinda lame I gotta admit. His only interesting ratings are his 1's tbh |
foxblood
04.30.18 | huh that sucks, I'd be pissed if that happened to me |
Dedes
04.30.18 | I've added at least 20
Am I valuable member of this site yet |

Demon of the Fall
04.30.18 | If you started from scratch & listened to 4 new albums a day (which is insane anyway), it'd take you over 10 years to get near Sandwich's rating total.
Madness. He must be so ruthless in discarding stuff immediately after hearing it the once & must dedicate a ludicrous amount of time to music listening. Maybe he's a 'grass is greener' sort of person. |
DoofusWainwright
04.30.18 | Potsy still has a lot of ratings
I’m closing in on 5000 |
DoofusWainwright
04.30.18 | Sandwich likes experimental/homespun/‘made by eccentrics for the love of music’ stuff the best
I know that isn’t really a genre |
DoofusWainwright
04.30.18 | LastFM is interesting because it shows the listening habits to match the ratings.
Someone like TwigTW who maybe rates even more new releases than Sandwich you can see he listens to the albums in full a few times over a week etc. Someone like Sint must listen to a lot he doesn’t track on LastFM because barely anything goes up and when it does it’s like a playlist. I listen to a sort of 50/50 split between new and old stuff |
Doctuses
04.30.18 | Why would anyone assume samdwhich Has actually listened to most of the ranked albums he has instead of just rating them? |
DoofusWainwright
04.30.18 | Because I’ve had days I’ve listened to 8 or so new albums easily.
Because he’s one of the older users on the site and he’s been fanatical about rating music for at least ten years (I think).
I imagine he listens to most albums in full, but only half of what he rates I’d guess he returns to. Though he is relistening to everything while putting ratings up on RYM which started this year I think.
One of the best users here, really interesting taste imo |
zakalwe
04.30.18 | Or he could just be a nutter |
Doctuses
04.30.18 | Word I guess. Still dont believe any of it. |
polyrhythm
04.30.18 | Or he works a job where he can listen to music all shift every day |
Frippertronics
04.30.18 | yikes |
Doctuses
04.30.18 |
Or both |
Papa Universe
04.30.18 | Oi, I was mentioned. |
DoofusWainwright
04.30.18 | I can listen to music about 50% of the time while working, esp when working from home.
I’m not really in the Gordon Gekko sort of world lol
I guess you could say I’m in cruise control at work but it pays the bills and I work with two of my best buddies which makes things a lot easier.
LastFM has told me there have been weeks I spent half the week listening to music. Not half my ‘waking hours’ - half the entire hours available! Shiiiiiiiiit |
Sniff
04.30.18 | I need that honorable mention. I haven't listen to all these shit albums just to not get mentioned |
Papa Universe
04.30.18 | I listen to music constantly. My work is 50% sitting on one place by myself an 50% running errands by myself. Not a lot to distract me from listening to music, so I just never put down my headphones. |
Papa Universe
04.30.18 | I just like it. |
Sniff
04.30.18 | It's a clear correlation between respect and numbers of albums rated |
SandwichBubble
04.30.18 | Inverse correlation maybe.
If I said that I worked in a mail room and an office before my current job, would that clear things up |
Sinternet
04.30.18 | ooh some interesting takes in this threa
i just have pretty much no taste whatsoever i'll jam anything and probably somewhat like it
also 90% of those ratings are a couple of years old from when I was in college and would basically jam about 12-15 full albums a day, nowadays I barely listen to full albums and just stick my library on shuffle
some of the ratings (mostly the sub-3.0 stuff) I either haven't heard since I was 15 or turned it off halfway through because it was bad/boring
idk why my last.fm sucks like it seemingly scrobbles half my stuff and then misses the rest, most of what's on there is just my itunes library on shuffle or spotify when it actually scrobbles for me - nearly all full album releases I listen to these days are leaks or streams for new albums |
Sniff
04.30.18 | It's exactly what it is tho |
Sinternet
04.30.18 | i am at some point gonna just port my ratings to rym and delete a load of mine though - a lot of this stuff I heard once like 3-4 years ago |
SandwichBubble
04.30.18 | I'm just going to pretend 010 is still here
@010 you've never had an office job where they allow headphones?
Also I've been doing the same sort of thing Sint |
DoofusWainwright
04.30.18 | LastFM and Spotify, the link betwixt the two I just don't understand - sometimes it'll pick my listening up, sometimes not, and I'll be using the same devices :/
Also I don't scrobble bandcamp stuff and certain other sources (soundcloud, some youtube, some leaks, etc)
LastFM gets about 80-90% of what I listen to I guess |
Demon of the Fall
04.30.18 | So if I want to find the best albums from let's say 1987 (my current mission/year of birth) then instead of using the charts (which don't work by year until the 90s) I can just peruse some prolific users ratings.
I should've thought of this earlier. |
Sinternet
04.30.18 | you want some '87 recs?
Dinosaur Jr - You're Living All Over Me
Dead Can Dance - Within the Realm...
Big Black - Songs About Fucking
Pixies - Come On Pilgrim
Eric B and Rakim - Paid in Full
or you could just check rym charts but rym taste is garbage |
bloc
04.30.18 | The thought of Demo listening to Eric B and Rakim makes me chuckle |
Demon of the Fall
04.30.18 | Dinosaur Jr is a definite jam, got that one lined up already. I wasn't actually asking for any but thanks for the thought/effort anyway :-) |
Sniff
04.30.18 | Recs are spot on |
foxblood
04.30.18 | more honorable mentions
Sniff 5704
bloc 8682 (on rym so doesn't count, used to have ratings here)
users that were bumped off
Potsy 7097
ZombieParty 6185
Havey 6641
@Jasdevi087 let me know if you remember
@sinternet that's interesting, it makes sense to me that someone that listens to that many albums wouldn't be too picky
every time I've ever asked sandwich about an album that he has rated he knows what he's talking about so I trust that they're real. people doubt them all the time but they're always people who don't prod him with questions constantly like I do.

bloc
04.30.18 | To be fair, I only ever had about 3300 ratings on Sputnik before erasing them. |
foxblood
04.30.18 | are your rym ratings mostly full albums and eps, or are there a lot of singles in there? |
Relinquished
04.30.18 | stop looking for dates fox |
bloc
04.30.18 | "are your rym ratings mostly full albums and eps, or are there a lot of singles in there?"
I would say more than 95% of them are full albums. |
foxblood
04.30.18 | I need a date though lol.
cool good to know . |
Relinquished
04.30.18 | idk about 95%
prob closer to 65-70% depending what you browse |
Trophycase
04.30.18 | These dudes could also just be like 50 years old. |
Sinternet
04.30.18 | eww no im 20 |
foxblood
04.30.18 | yeah sin is younger than most of us. stereo is prob older I'd guess. |
Sniff
04.30.18 | Sint you've been claiming you're 20 for 12 years now |
DoofusWainwright
04.30.18 | Lol |
Papa Universe
04.30.18 | Doofus has been in his 40s since he was 15 years old. |
DoofusWainwright
04.30.18 | nah, I was actually really immature - if you couldn't have guessed
I moved where I lived about ten times when I was younger, so I always had it that I was at least three years behind my own age developmentally
now I'm 12 years behind |
Papa Universe
04.30.18 | I'm a 60 year old man trapped in a mind of a 15 year old trapped in a body of a 40 year old. |
