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

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.

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.

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...

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.

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.

astonishing how well Thermo Thinwall captured the song in an image. these just happen to be some random images he had on a recent vacation. (iirc)

in case you haven't figured it out, the font and color all match up with the original albums.

Thermo Thinwall probably thought like i did, that "Rent I Pay" will definitely make this poll.
it would be very interesting to see my ballot these days, especially with the addition of Hot Thoughts a very, very strong album. at first i thought it didn't measure up. these days it's actually one of their best.
