04.09.14 | I will give 2 days to listen and vote. Have fun and be respectful! I'm strong, but I don't want you
guys hurting Jethro's (edit SCREAM's) feelings ;) |
mandan
04.09.14 | Fair enough dude. I've heard 2 once and it's pretty good. Still need to check 1 though. |
mryrtmrnfoxxxy
04.09.14 | sweet |
Friday13th
04.09.14 | yeah I've heard Maneige once but I need to give it a second go before I feel comfortable voting. |
mandan
04.09.14 | Exactly. |
Onirium
04.09.14 | This will be a difficult choice... Jammed 1 last night, have to give it a second spin because 2 is so good. |
Friday13th
04.09.14 | Oh shoot!!! SCREAM! suggested Les Porches! Haha I just remember Jethro talking about Les Porches a
lot. |
SCREAM!
04.09.14 | Sweet already gave Univers a first listen! Will give it a couple more with the time at hand and let you know! (Although I'm leaning towards Les Porches as is haha)
|
Friday13th
04.09.14 | haha cool. Sorry for the mistake! I'm hearing Les Porches right now and I'm seeing why you guys love
it so much. |
MeatSalad
04.09.14 | Les Porches |
mandan
04.09.14 | Jamming 1 now. Let's see how this turns out. |
SCREAM!
04.09.14 | It's an interesting matchup though. Heresie is almost like les porches' evil twin. Will suck to see either go but I have a feeling I'll be saying that every round with the albums lined up |
AngelofDeath
04.09.14 | Heresie |
mandan
04.09.14 | Heresie def isn't for everyone, but I could see myself listening to it more, it's def a unique album. |
Jethro42
04.09.14 | I know well both of the bands and I have a preference for Maneige who cannot do wrong. So I choose Les Porches. I only hope that all the undecided won't be influenced too much by a comment like mine. |
mandan
04.09.14 | 2 is easily the most accessible, but I also dig the "acquired taste" vibe on 1, so it won't be easy for me. |
Jethro42
04.09.14 | I think most of the music of Univers Zero is not a grower. You have to take it as it is. What you hear is what you get. |
mandan
04.09.14 | In any case, I prob won't reach a verdict until tomorrow. At what time does voting close Friday? |
Friday13th
04.09.14 | on friday afternoon :) |
mandan
04.09.14 | Sweet. |
PitchforkArms
04.09.14 | just listened to both...very tough |
KjSwantko
04.09.14 | This is a good battle; two extremely different albums. I tend to prefer stuff that's dark and doomy (as in Heresie), but the songwriting on Les Porches is just better. The piano work rules too.
Les Porches. |
mandan
04.09.14 | I think Maneige should win this round, but anything can happen ofc. |
TheCrocodile
04.09.14 | So hard but yeah
Les Porches for me. |
Onirium
04.10.14 | After a third listen of Heresie, I have to say my votes goes to Les Porches, because of the wonderful climaxes and creativity. Heresie is still a hard 4, though |
mandan
04.10.14 | I'll cast my vote tomorrow. |
Friday13th
04.10.14 | Well you all know my vote. Les Porches is awesome, but Heresie is a unique nightmare. The first track is downright frightening from start to finish, and when that bass kicks in at the end of "Jack the Ripper"...oh man that's some awesome stuff. |
mryrtmrnfoxxxy
04.10.14 | ill jam em both tomorrow |
MrSirLordGentleman
04.10.14 | This will be tough, but at the moment, Les Porches seems a little bit better |
SCREAM!
04.10.14 | Jamming Heresie again now and will try to listen to it once or twice again tomorrow. I'll have a vote in tomorrow night or friday morning |
climactic
04.10.14 | "peer approved progger."
kill yourself |
zakalwe
04.10.14 | There's no way that these have been fully digested by my ear'oles but on initial spin I'm going to go for the darker edge of Heresie. |
mryrtmrnfoxxxy
04.10.14 | ugh neither of these are on spotify #thestruggle |
Friday13th
04.10.14 | @mryrtmrnfoxxxy grooveshark.com dude. Les Porches is on youtube also. |
menawati
04.10.14 | les porches |
mandan
04.10.14 | Almost ready to rate 2. it's looking like a solid 4.5.
Didn't finish Heresie yesterday, so I'll have to jam it twice today. |
SCREAM!
04.10.14 | Gonna have to stick with Les porches. Great suggestion though man. I'm glad Heresie is part of my collection and I'll probably check out more of their stuff once this contest ends |
mandan
04.10.14 | Heresie needs a review hard, maybe Friday should do it. |
mandan
04.10.14 | Well I need to jam 1 once more, and I think that should do it. |
mryrtmrnfoxxxy
04.10.14 | jammin 2 now |
mandan
04.10.14 | Almost ready to vote. |
mandan
04.10.14 | Well Heresie is pretty great, def worth checking out if you're a prog fan. Having said that, my vote goes to Les Porches: it's just on a whole 'nother level for me. Some of the best prog I've ever heard, period. |
Friday13th
04.10.14 | Nice. Les Porches is leading by a ratio of 2 to 1 right now. Is two days long enough or too long? I don't want to drag it out, but I want to give each album enough listening time. |
mandan
04.10.14 | I think it's okay to wait 2 days. Some users will take their time to make up their minds. |
SCREAM!
04.10.14 | 2 days is good. I was a little quicker since I'm familiar with Les porches but I imagine I'll appreciate the time when the other rounds come up |
Friday13th
04.11.14 | Alright bring in the votes. I'll close it in about two hours. |
Friday13th
04.11.14 | Think this is it since Floyd dominated the last one. |
Jethro42
04.11.14 | Bring the next two, so we can listen to it promptly. |
MrSirLordGentleman
04.11.14 | It seems like Maneige won |
Friday13th
04.11.14 | @Jethro42 will do. |
Jethro42
04.11.14 | sweet! |
mryrtmrnfoxxxy
04.11.14 | shit sorry but i thought i had another day for some reason |
Friday13th
04.11.14 | hurry up! Still got time. |
Friday13th
04.11.14 | Alright! I got fewer votes than expected, but the winner is...9/8 drum roll...LES PORCHES 8-4! Congrats SCREAM! (and Jethro42 hehe) and thanks for the marvelous prog. |
mryrtmrnfoxxxy
04.11.14 | still gonna jam 1 this weekend |
Friday13th
04.11.14 | oh yeah these are definite keepers |
TwigTW
04.14.14 | These are both very interesting, and very good. |
