POLL POLL POLL POLL POLL - SPOON (ILM artist poll #67) --- The results thread

what are all the cover album tracks? "me and the bean," "i just don't understand"...

Don't You Evah and Towner off Telephono

forgot that about "don't you evah," thanks

if it makes you feel better, cajunsunday, i can post the image i made in anticipation of Car Radio making the list!

Please!

"Car Radio" just missed, it was number 40.

Or 41

image is from a diner of SF.

that one is great, another one i really liked that didn't make the countdown was "Rent I Pay."

my list. "Before Destruction" is my real discovery/re-evaluation from this poll, should have voted for it! Also "Car Radio" and "Rent I Pay" would probably make my top 30

4. Inside Out
5. Metal Detektor
6. Out Go the Lights
7. The Beast and Dragon, Adored

speaking of artwork that didn't make it, i really loved this one as mentioned above:

and the last one that i know about, alternative image (would not mind seeing the rest Thermo Thinwall.)

https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/GaTd_M7r-tNRIsC8VgP6bcslIrY6cuugNOZ4bFU3ZTU=w640-h320-no

The images are uniformly excellent, really amazingly well done, Thermo.

I kind of like to think of Spoon as being the band from Summer of 69 if Jimmy hadn't quit and Jody hadn't got married and they HAD got far.

i had one i wasn't crazy about for "All The Girls..."
i think that was it?
evicting a nightmare tenant in two hours – can have a look this evening.

proof that i have abandoned indie rock is the scarce attention i paid this band.

@Thermo i would make a "rent i pay" joke here if i knew that song better

The image is a metaphor for my life right now, with a deadbeat sociopath refusing to vacate my basement.

"Rent she don't pay"

A revised version of that poll.

i just noticed a really silly spelling error in one of the images.

that was supposed to be:

what i absolutely love about you list Alfred is the placement of "They Never Got You." That is my number one from this poll and didn't get a lot of love compared. You have it at number five and that makes me very, very happy.

great overall list too.

i'm sad because the beautiful images that The Cursed Return of the Dastardly Thermo Thinwall did for this poll have disappeared. my computer did die after this poll but i still luckily have the images, so i think i need to re-post them. let's see if i can do this...

i have never understood you Noodle Vague, too grumpy for me.

don't remember the story but Thermo Thinwall had this original image for 34

https://i.imgur.com/fQNZQId.jpg

but he didn't like it and wanted me to use this one instead, maybe he can explain? i haven't seen him around ILM but i know he is still around.

I like the first image better - but I felt the second went better with the title.

hi stranger, can't thank you enough for the images for this poll. hopefully we will team up again in the future.

(if i ever run a poll again)

these images are having a profound effect on me tonight. it's probably because i have had a very hard three days and work and drinking red wine. but it makes me realize people are people and why is there so much hate in the United States at this moment in time. i know it was worse back in the day but i didn't live then. i'm living now and this administration is tearing this country apart is the worst thing i have experienced in my life.

peace, rant over

more Spoon to come...
