ILM 2013 Tracks Poll: Murmuration of Stats, Ballots and Real Punks

I think Pfork's day-to-day tastes align a lot more with ILM than their poll tastes do.

emil.y n pfunkboy gotta post their ballots imo

I thought during the rollout that I'd removed Gaga/Kells from my ballot but IIRC I ultimately voted for it because I do genuinely love the song. I only listen to the Xtina version now, though.

Although, if VW wins best album in our poll next week, I'm gonna burn all this shit down. xps to me

some p cool lists in here

I'm the #2 most populist voter. How proud I am. I didn't save my actual ballot, but my #1 was "Tennis Court"

Oh nice one, emil.y voted for that Mazes track too! :D

shouts to prolego for shanell vote and etc for shuanise vote

My Top Neighbour is apparently nakamura... I don't even know who he or she is!

lool emil.y's number 1 track was pushed off the bottom of my ballot by her number 13, them's the breaks

Oh nice one, emil.y voted for that Mazes track too! :D

― Toni Braxton-Hicks (Turrican)

I don't normally like them all that much but I really like that one. Just wiry and repetitive and kind of hypnotic.

props to whoever put bar bar bar bar by crayon pop at #1
i love you

#6 for loneliness, #133 for populism, #80 for blood sausage and #128 for hivemind. Christ.

I don't normally like them all that much but I really like that one. Just wiry and repetitive and kind of hypnotic.

Yup, that's the reason I like it, just the groove of it and the interplay of the guitars.

Props to jaymc for being the other vote for Laura Mvula's "Green Garden". The rest of you suck.

i got pitchfork reader which was a bit strange

The stats spreadsheet never lies.

Gonna make a playlist of Emily's list because I know virtually none of it but the two track I do know are great.

I didnt get a chance to nominate stuff this year and pretty much everything I wanted to vote for wasnt listed.

I guess I should listen to the Yamankata // Sonic Titan album then.

It really is great

hah some dude its just funny as I never read it. but I guess seandalai doesnt have a list for terrorizer poll

Thanks so much for another fantastic EOY extravaganza Johnny Fever and seandalai. I think this was one of the best run downs in history. Very varied, something for everyone, despite a couple of repeat artists. But the important thing I think is that so many styles got a look in, and that Hot Fruit placed.

Here's my weighted ballot.
Apparently I read Pitchfork and am closest to PFunkboy in taste.

devvvine confusing me by voting for some of the more baffling (to me) inclusions in this poll AND my number 1, at number 4

*searches own soul*

something for everyone

Not really.

Hot Fruit came in at #63 iirc, so there's your "something".

Don't know what my list was anymore, I voted SNSD - I Got A Boy to #1, someone else did as well, only 5 votes in total means a miss, unfortunately.

That was me! Probably one of the reasons we're closest neighbours. We need more campaigning next year.

Yeah, I guess so. Just would've liked a bit more variety in general.

xp

"i got a boy" cut from my ballot at the last minute, sorry k-pop ppl

"Green Gardens" was on my shortlist, EZ

howdy :P

Destiny's Child - Nuclear

It caught my ears a bit at polling time, but it keeps sounding better. Kind of shocked to look back and see how long it landed. It's mostly, but not exclusively, the chorus that does it.

(And I strongly suggest life imprisonment for NickB.)
