Maybe all the Sonic Youth tracks and albums will take all the top positions, lol.

if it makes you feel any better, here's a rip of the first swans EP from vinyl, sounds better than the muddy remasters that were done in 1990 imo

ftw Hysteria > Daydream Nation

also ftr

Broney, Pt. 1 (Pillbox), Saturday, 22 September 2012 01:01 (eleven years ago) link

Def Leppard's an interesting case. Now, I'd probably put on On Through the Night before Hysteria but Hysteria has so much more sentimental value and I know it so well that I couldn't not vote for it.

Plus, "Rocket" is so mental!

EveningStar (Sund4r), Saturday, 22 September 2012 01:11 (eleven years ago) link

gittar! druhms!

I def meant the two SY albums when I said SST was going to fill out the top 5, but it was an unfair jibe since one of the SST Sonic Youth records made my top 3...

I def predict Swans are going to do very well, which is what happens when you release the unofficially unanimous album of the present year. I'm thinking Children of God will be top 10

^loves belaboured seething (Drugs A. Money), Saturday, 22 September 2012 05:14 (eleven years ago) link

I have no idea how the top 10 is gonna shape up.

Algerian Goalkeeper, Saturday, 22 September 2012 09:31 (eleven years ago) link

It would be stirmonsters worst nightmare if Def Leppard won.

yes, it would, although i do own this which i bought in my brief nwobhm phase and which i am delighted to see goes for crazy money.

Algerian Goalkeeper, Saturday, 22 September 2012 16:23 (eleven years ago) link

Checked who voted and I'm surprised at the lack of ballots from some people who nominated.

I know you're very excited AG but polls generally get a lot more discussion during the weekdays?
