Holy Toy go hard, but let us return to the broken funk treasures of Drawings of OT:

Abfackeln!

^^^

actual rock music, b/c I've been listening to Zoogz Rift and This Heat all morning.

English translate: Scorch!

Let our souls be free of decay!
...free of fungus!
Wallowing in carrion
In carrion
Wallowing
Let our skulls be free of fungus!
...and if the city burns...
Yes... That's our torch...
Let's scorch our souls!
Let's scorch our souls!
Let's let our souls
Scorch!

Send "Abfackeln!" Ringtone to your Cell

Let our skulls be free of fungus!

^^^

OTM, would kill for this.

c'mon this rocks harder than a police truck full of sex crazed orcs

i'd have voted for holy toy.

is there some trick to c+p out of that google doc or is my computer just fucking up

actually a bit awed that ZR crushes myth of no wave being impervious to ruin.

xxp

submitted, having second thoughts (for instance, no die kreuzen, but i think i'm okay with it)

jjj it allowed me to C+P . highlight them all right click and select copy

did it work?

I imagine jjj still trying to get it to work for some reason.

into the last week of voting we go

Algerian-

to fill out the track playlist, I uploaded some local files, but I'm not sure if others can play them or not. Cop Shoot Cop were among the additions, if you could check. thx.

also, we have until the 27th for albums, right?

i'm glad you pointed that out, i'd assumed from the subject line that the whole thing closed on the 20th

No It might be the 20th it might be 24th 25th maybe 26th. It all depends on seandalai. It will not be as late as 27th.

but if I were you I'd assume both were finishing on the 20th just incase. I think its been a long enough time to vote and ballots are dropping off now.

hellhouse you seemed to remove stuff I added then added yourself. I cant see cop shoot cop.

wtf does that even mean, christ

I don't see any point in extending it and it just means more work for seandalai. better to get it all done and dusted so we can then look for album covers/spotify links.
I'm still not sure if Viceroy is going to be able to do the tracks rollout due to his work commitments.

If we get a long list as usual then I want to start the albums on fri night after the tracks finish. So I am not sure if the 27th gives seandalai enough time to run the results through. if he can assure us then the 27th might be on but I'd much prefer everyone got them in by the 20th just incase. Remember seandalai is a very busy guy.

ugh just pick a firm date and stick with. if an editor ever told me "it might be due the 13th, or maybe the 17th, we'll see" i would invariably managed to miss whatever the deadline turned out to be.

that is why i said everyone should just aim for the 20th for both. Everybody who has sent in a tracks ballot so far has voted for albums at the same time. There's been a few albums only ballots but no tracks only ones.

the top of the thread saying "Voting closes September 20 for tracks and approx September 27 for albums" is a bad idea, then

well things have changed. I've had to do most of this by myself as others have been unavailable. originally there were 3 of us and seandalai is doing me a good turn and i do not want to cause him extra work.

Why did I never listen to Locust Abortion Technician before now? (Answer: because of that stupid band name.)

I hope it blew your mind like it should do

-AG:

my mistake. I was under the impression local files could be shared (apparently not). I only deleted and re-added tracks b/c I was fucking around w/adding local tracks.

yeah if others have the mp3s it will show up for them

I don't mind what the deadline is, there's not really any extra work for me either way. I may not be able to produce the final results immediately as I'll be travelling but that's my problem.

I'd rather have the results ready to go then rather than extending the deadline.

so please get your votes in!

viceroy are you around?

Contenderizer I told everyone that their nwa vote wont count but you still had to vote for it didn't you. well it wont count.

that was probably some other guy called me

NO I AM CONTENDERIZER

we are all contenderizer.

most people have already voted, but I’m gonna take a few seconds to rep for Rhys Chatham’s “Die Donnergotter” anyway. Chatham essentially spends twenty minutes on a blown-out version of “Fur Immer”, layering six guitars over the forward slam of David Linton’s drumming for no-wave motorik sprawl. EIII claims it’s only good live, but this is a foul bag of fuck-filled challops. a thirteen-minute edit can be heard here.

the full version, along with “Guitar Trio” and Waterloo No. 2” from 1987’s Die Donnergotter LP can be found here.

/pointless pitching

...

There's a few people, who I hope will vote, who might be interested in that.

indeed. I will vote for it and send it barreling into the close with one vote.

man if you guys only knew how long this die donnergotter debate has been raging

I bought the LP of Die Donnergotter about 12 years ago and remember being tremendously disappointed. ("The fuck? This is jangle-rock!") I'm looking forward to giving it another chance. I really liked Chatham's Crimson Grail.

Thanks for the link btw! Didn't mean to be ungrateful!

What's the story with the NWA album? I added to the spreadsheet because it's in the list at the top of the thread but did AG veto it?

it's a prank, no matter what AG says, he really wants you to count the NWA votes

Long ago! in the noms thread! But somehow it was in the Spreadsheet i used to start the thread. I kept removing it from the google spreadsheet and the bugger kept reappearing and now I know why!
(ps did you get my last email?)

remember, no matter what he says
