Hey I'm King of The World, You Oughta Hear My Song, Come On & Measure Me, THESE ARE AT LEAST 10 MINUTES LONG - RESULTS ILM BALLOT POLL #58

Nope.

Unless a few hours counts as "slightly earlier."

that'd do ty

maybe whet our appetites with some hints

ugh, dislike that Les Rallizes Dénudés intensely. A dull, lo-fi guitar jam is all I hear. An epic should, you know, DO something with it's running time. Hope there's not too much more like that in the countdown.

Argh forgot to vote in this. Pleasantly surprised by the inclusion of the Fiery Furnaces.

maybe whet our appetites with some hints

Next 10 is pretty eclectic as far as nations of origin go.

Well good thing this isn't an epics poll! ;)

that fucking daft punk song is in isn't it

Next 10 is pretty eclectic as far as nations of origin go.
So Godspeed You Black Emperor, Can, Fela Kuti, Boris, and Lindstrom?

^^ would be awesome

No Canucks, and it's a different Scandinavian country, but yes on Germany, Japan, and Fela.

first Boredoms appearance probably

that autechre track is truly awesome. calling it garbage is obscenely modest.

maybe we're in store for some Swedish or Finnish metal (can't remember how much of that there was), but it's probably the Knife or something.

Hoping for International Harvester

Posthumously honorary Canuck coming up.

voted for that Boredoms song. haven't listened to VCN in a couple of years though, at least.

So far Boredoms and Sigur Ros are my only votes that have placed.

Come on, Poland!

the first track i voted for. fuzzy bliss.

Water Get No Enemy and Krautrock are my second and third to show up. Frankie is one of my big regrettable oversights (along w Starla) (though I might post a quick rundown of shit I forgot to nominate in the campaigning thread when this is done)

what the actual fuck this street hassle thing is the fucking most abominable shit i've heard

'the cello's nice though'

for some reason the repetition + these lyrics come off as so insincere and postured, it's like he wanted to write this grand emotional street epic, man, and forced it out any way he could. so lazy

next up, sigur ros

second thoughts, leave the house

Imago otm re street hassle.

Sigur ros track is cool. The bass has a ton of bite.

I used to like it more when I was at university. The big corny ten-minuter I prefer(red) is the airstrikes one, but their placement here comes off as an April Fool more than anything

most of the rest seems good-to-certifiably-awesome, personally a great fan of the faust and the neeeeewsuuuuunnnnn

Sincerity is for rockists.

Good to see Night of the Assassins. I didn't vote in this so it could make it to #100, glad the plan worked.

My sincerest apologies for not voting, as my projected top five for Night of the Assassins would have done it possibly better justice. "Dull lo-fi guitar jam" my foot, that shit's incendiary beyond a plane we barely know. Glad to see Hornets place, at least. If anyone knows of music of that calibre produced currently, please let me know.

They used to play French Kiss on the radio and cut out before the orgasmic breakdown and even then it was unbelievably exciting to 13 year old me. Seemed to open up a whole new world and still works a dance floor like little else.

two of my choices bookending the bottom twenty. still have high hopes for the pärson sound number making a showing though.

tbf, "insincere and postured" is the vibe that Lou inhabits most of the time. funny thing is it rarely results in bad music.

Only one vote placing so far (Orbital) but a few others I would probably have voted for if I'd noticed them on the massively long nominations list.

haha great to the see the klf in there, never been a big fan of IGUN compared to the white room stuff
kinda bummed to miss out on voting but been some great stuff i probs would have picked place so far, great job everyone :)
faust, boredoms & dénudés personally favs in this first group

I've been listening to this this mix-CD I made for the car:

1. "Slipping (Into Something)," Feelies (6:00)
2. "When," Grachan Moncur III (12:08)
3. "Spiegel Im Spiegel," Arvo Pärt (10:38)
4. "Fur Immer (Forever)," Neu! (11:17)
5. "Quiet Nervousness," Manuel Göttsching (13:00)
6. "How Some Jellyfish Are Born, Yo La Tengo (8:22)
7. "Field of Stars," Oliver Schroer (8:15)
8. "Find a Way," Feelies (7:05)

Assembled in the spirit of this poll, basically, although no strict 10-minute rule. I've never cared about streaming; I rarely listen to music when I'm sitting at the computer. Music in a car, though, life would be considerably less interesting without it--especially long songs, especially driving out in the country.

Gawd, this thread is a goddamn treasure trove! My next few days (weeks) will be all about zoning out to long tracks.
(And listening to short tracks for Karl's poll, obvs.)

Ever wonder what the most popular 10:00+ songs on Spotify are? I didn't. Until 10:00 ago.https://t.co/BzmgGFXBWR

Very surprised that Blue Train is above All Blues, which I figured was a shoe-in for the top jazz track. Very surprised Deep Purple on there at all, didn't think they'd maintained a following comparable to Floyd or the Doors.
