11.04.10 | who voted me for black metal lol |
cvlts
11.04.10 | thats sum bullshit. |
KevinGarnett
11.04.10 | Correct. |
SeaAnemone
11.04.10 | some pretty ridiculous choices on here some obvious ones too i dunno |
Motiv3
11.04.10 | how the hell did i become the authority for prog death? LOL. Great list idea though. |
Hawks
11.04.10 | Who the hell gave me votes for death metal and progressive death? Nice album choice for me though. |
Maniac!
11.04.10 | Hollier for prog metal?
But he likes btbam :/ |
cvlts
11.04.10 | you posted DaveyBoy twice in radio rock |
greg84
11.04.10 | Finally I'm an authority on something! Thanks for voting. Stoner rock/metal rules face. |
Satellite
11.04.10 | UP TEH PUNX |
HighandDriving
11.04.10 | Lol, Mappy wins metalcore! Mappy knows I have better taste in metalcore than him.
|
Sowing
11.04.10 | woo i am an authority! bow before your alt-rock master, sputnik! jk though this was a very enjoyable list, hans. |
Metalstyles
11.04.10 | Maniac, Hollier and Hawks are all good dudes but I'm a little baffled that they won their respective categories. But yeah very cool list idea, big props Hans. Also, I'm the king of the unwanted genre, awesome! (in a non-sarcastic way haha) |
Hawks
11.04.10 | I'm pretty surprised I won too lol. It could've went to anyone listed there though. |
Maniac!
11.04.10 | Old school soul and blues are where it's at, bitches. |
Maniac!
11.04.10 | WTF styles.
You broke my fucking heart |
BigHans
11.04.10 | Hawks you got double the votes anyone else did actually. |
Motiv3
11.04.10 | dw metalstyles im confused how i got that as well haha. |
Winsomniac
11.04.10 | I win. |
Transient
11.04.10 | this is so fucking stupid
also lol qwe getting nominated for almost every category ^_^ |
Apollo
11.04.10 | agreed with this list |
HighandDriving
11.04.10 | Fuck Mappy |
greg84
11.04.10 | Yeah. This was an awesome list idea, Hans. |
SCREAM!
11.04.10 | cause hawks is the least reclusive/elitist/ass/etc of all the nominees probably lol
Still think spirit shouldve won it though (sorry hawks)
And am i the only one that voted myself for prog death? lol |
Maniac!
11.04.10 | Jk styles, I didn't really care the outcome :P
I did expect to have a chance because not a whole of people hear listen to that stuff |
Hawks
11.04.10 | It definitely could've went either way for black metal. Spirit, Crysis, Wiz, and Balls all really know their shit as well. |
BigHans
11.04.10 | Someone should do a list like this with all of the genres I missed. |
Motiv3
11.04.10 | dunno alot of guys voted for me which i have absolutely no idea why. |
FadeToBlack
11.04.10 | yay i won something |
BigHans
11.04.10 | yeah Fade you won by a big margin.
The biggest blow-outs were, in order:
Classic Rock
Electronica
Thrash
Death Metal
Radio Rock
Post Metal |
porch
11.04.10 | when the fuck did this happen
i should've won in more categories and the list needs meatplow, kitsch, kane etc but cool idea hans |
Metalstyles
11.04.10 | @Maniac!
It's just that I don't know how long you've listened to jazz. As far as I remember you've been listening to jazz for less than a year, but that's just as far as I know and I might be wrong. Imo Keelan would've been the perfect choice for jazz. |
HighandDriving
11.04.10 | I'm gonna do one with Math-Rock, Post-Punk, Electro House, Grindcore, etc.
And I'm gonna win them all despite the votes cause I deserve it. |
SeaAnemone
11.04.10 | May I submit my absentee-ballot please? |
Metalstyles
11.04.10 | Also I agree with porch that kitsch should've been at least nominated in the punk category. Meatplow would've probably won btw if there'd been a industrial category. |
BigHans
11.04.10 | Porch, I didnt have any official nominees, so people just voted whoever they wanted to. |
Satellite
11.04.10 | Needs an Emo category as well. |
BigHans
11.04.10 | Some genres that I thought of but ran out of room. I chose so many metal categories because 1. This site loves metal. 2. I love metal. 3. Metal is the greatest form of elitism here so people would have gone nuts if I would have just had 1 metal category, etc.
Some genres that would work for a second list
Folk
Hair Metal - fuck yeah
Grindcore
Post Punk
More versions of Electronica, fuck I dont know anything about it so yeah
|
Motiv3
11.04.10 | i like the idea of doing another one of these with genres which are missing. |
Hawks
11.04.10 | Needs doom as well, but we all know Rasputin would win that. |
Inveigh
11.04.10 | illmitch, my arch nemesis almost got me. thanks to all who voted for me (especially myself) and a big butthurt "fuck you faggot!" to those that didn't. |
Motiv3
11.04.10 | yeah thats pretty much a no contest. |
Jethro42
11.04.10 | I'm not really surprised since I grew up into prog rock as shown on my pie chart. Not surprised but flattered indeed. |
Motiv3
11.04.10 | @ hawks my comment was |
BigHans
11.04.10 | So whos going to do the next list? |
SeaAnemone
11.04.10 | i will lol |
Satellite
11.04.10 | i'll do it tonight if nobody else has done it yet. |
Motiv3
11.04.10 | list needs power metal too. |
BigHans
11.04.10 | we all know Poet would win Power Metal in a landslide. |
BigHans
11.04.10 | Sea, make the next list, INDIE AUTHORITY. |
SeaAnemone
11.04.10 | it needs power metal and hair metal just as it needs Midwestern-emo and lo-fi and dream-pop |
Motiv3
11.04.10 | thats because hes the only one who bothers to go into that much depth hahaha. |
BallsToTheWall
11.04.10 | Should have been listed for shoegaze fucking depressed. And Rasputin losing to Hawks no offense but yeah.... |
SeaAnemone
11.04.10 | i'll do it but let's give it a little time I don't wanna clog sputnik too mcuh with these overwhelming lists it's kinda dumb all at once, is that ok?
plus I have to study for a civ. liberites test tonight anyway |
Inveigh
11.04.10 | but dream-pop was part of the shoegaze category |
BigHans
11.04.10 | nah Sea, gotta strike while the iron is hot. Satty? |
DoubtGin
11.04.10 | yes official |
Jethro42
11.04.10 | ''gotta strike while the iron is hot''
Same expression in French:
Il faut battre le fer pendant qu'il est chaud
:D |
Jethro42
11.04.10 | tu vois |
BigHans
11.04.10 | Jethro, Nagrarok gave you a serious run for your money. Im actually surprised nobody voted for him in the category I won. |
tiesthatbind
11.04.10 | Woohoo, king of radio rock, I now command ultimate respect from Sputnik. |
Sowing
11.04.10 | ties, show us the way |
Dryden
11.04.10 | woa |
BigHans
11.04.10 | I actually got a vote for Radio rock, lol |
BigHans
11.04.10 | lol at Dryden getting a vote for Stoner metal |
BallsToTheWall
11.04.10 | There is mutiny afoot. BURN THE HERETIC BURN THE HERETIC theer is a sputnik collective guilty of practicing witchcraft. |
Jethro42
11.04.10 | ''Jethro, Nagrarok gave you a serious run for your money. Im actually surprised nobody voted for him in the category I won.''...................................................................................................
Yeah Hans, but I showed to Nag lots of prog bands, so if he had won the game, I'd be glad for being a good teacher haha...and yes, I'd see Nag taking the cake for classic rock. It was hard for me to decide between him and you. |
BallsToTheWall
11.04.10 | You hear that, he turns people into newts. Gotta watch out for hep, that mothers unarmed but extremely dangerous. |
SeaAnemone
11.04.10 | did everyone else know that ThePalestMexican and OhAliceMonster were the same person?!
I feel dumb. |
BigHans
11.04.10 | did everyone else know that ThePalestMexican and OhAliceMonster were the same person?!
^ I always had my suspicions. |
BallsToTheWall
11.04.10 | It was a given when they said they were good friends. Who cares though, Hep Kat will turn that pale mexican into a newt shall he show his face again. |
Metalstyles
11.04.10 | ehh I'm not too sure about that Sea. I mean, Dave has made mixups like that before too (LisbonGirls wasn't actually plagiarizing reviews on two accounts haha). But if it's true then holy hell LOL. |
Inveigh
11.04.10 | are they the same person or did Palest just steal her password? |
AngelofDeath
11.04.10 | Most I think are pretty deserving. Some of the nominees are pretty lol though.
My list didn't really get enough votes to make it competitive. Basically if you voted for yourself, you're the authority of whatever you voted for yourself for. |
AnotherBrick
11.04.10 | May take some of the new authorities for sputnik essentials IV |
Dryden
11.04.10 | "BigHans
11.04.10
[Report this Post] lol at Dryden getting a vote for Stoner metal "
got a problem with that you slut |
BigHans
11.04.10 | well Stoner is manly metal you dont seem to be a fan |
AngelofDeath
11.04.10 | Hans, do another and put in folk metal or video game music so I can actually win a category. |
Dryden
11.04.10 | oh u have no idea |
BigHans
11.04.10 | Im too lazy to do another one Angel. HSThomas said he would do one. |
Relinquished
11.04.10 | obviously I won what I did, it's the only thing I have |

acorncheese
11.04.10 | The fact that PowerBan didn't win for post-metal makes all of this even more ridiculous. |
Counterfeit
11.04.10 | veigh you may have indie rap locked down but you dont appreciate enough mainstreamish stuff. |
Inveigh
11.04.10 | I like good mainstream hip hop
just because I don't like Gucci Mane and the last two Kanye albums doesn't mean I don't appreciate the mainstream lol |
Counterfeit
11.04.10 | please 808s is barely a hip hop album.

Oceanus
11.04.10 | Should maybe consider more categories if there is ever a round two (jazz, classical, musicals, 80s, funk, oldies?) |
BigHans
11.04.10 | somebody already did a part 2. If there had been an 80's one I would have won that hands down. |
Oceanus
11.04.10 | Didn't even see that, Hans. |
Inveigh
11.04.10 | Luacris is ok at times, but c'mon -- I think you 5ing or even 4.5ing one of his albums should automatically disqualify you from hip hop authority consideration |

I think that song was "You's a hooooooooo" |
Inveigh
11.04.10 | "Word of Mouf is just straight G bro"
perhaps, but liking it doesn't mean you're the authoritah brah
I mean, liking Fall Out Boy doesn't make you the pop punk authority either ;-) |
Counterfeit

qwe3
11.05.10 | "guys I seriously thought Agalloch was Black metal. Its not? What is it then?"
they have black metal influences but theyre def not black metal. |
BigHans
11.05.10 | they have black metal influences but theyre def not black metal.

qwe3
11.05.10 | i love their vocals. their music has been getting worse and worse, unfortunately. pale folklore still rules insanely hard though |

KevinGarnett
11.09.10 | "how is listening to emmure hardcore?"
Because if you can stand more than 5 minutes of it, you're either hardcore or just a big ol' scene pussy. |
KevinGarnett
11.09.10 | "why would you guys wanna see Pit and This Life hardcoring each other"
The real question is:
Why wouldn't you? |
AggravatedYeti
11.09.10 | true, true.
but you're a political machine.
yet somehow the vote was swayed.
A WIN FOR ALL YETI KIND! |

liledman
10.29.11 | i think theres some genres though where there is so much just covered by the staff/contrib/featured reviews and new release hype that theres isnt really that much more these authorities can do. that ego thing comes into when half the people saying they are authorities have the same ratings as dozens of other users.
i did say half. dev, relinquished and inveigh you would all be included. along with rasputin, anthracks, slightlyepic, qwe, yeti, meatplow, illmitch, porch... i dont know its kind of hard to judge in sputniks popular genres who is more knowledgeable/influential. |
rasputin
10.29.11 | 'yo rasputin i bet u can't name 10 pa metalcore bands ffaggot'
i said genre, not pseudo-genre
