sound of silver was 2007 I CAN'T REMEMBER CAN I
lol hercules and love affair came 2nd and lindstrom 3rd, a triumph for albums that take half a year to date and eight months for everybody to completely forget

xp lol I guess my #2 memory was wishful thinking due to never liking the H&LA album.

The Flaming Lips "Watching the Planets" also missing from final TRAX nominations list (this was my submission, there's no way I won't vote for the darn thing).
Scratch this, I found it alphabetized under "The" instead of "Flaming" and got my votes finished. Still, Animal Collective "My Girls" is still missing and was nominated. I didn't vote for it but I'm sure some folks will want to do so...

Animal Collective "My Girls" nominated for trax, missing from final list.
that was on someone's list when they originally nominated about 50 things, when he redid his list he didn't include it.

see Flaming Lips, The, it's on there
― musically, Wednesday, 13 January 2010 02:12 (fourteen years ago) link
and I think dub and remix can be two distinct things, I mean it's basically nominating the instrumental but since it doesn't add much complication and it doesn't split the vote I don't have a problem with allowing both to be nominated.
― musically, Wednesday, 13 January 2010 02:15 (fourteen years ago) link
No way... I would have included it in my noms, had I known. Pretty "significant" record that is going to be shut out of the ILX poll, I guess.
― I just wish he hadn't adopted the "ilxor" moniker (ilxor), Wednesday, 13 January 2010 02:19 (fourteen years ago) link
Fever Ray: "Keep The Streets Empty For Me" was nominated, although I think it was written as "Leave The Streets...", which might have thrown you off, musically.
― Lostandfound, Wednesday, 13 January 2010 02:22 (fourteen years ago) link
that was another of the over-noms that was cut. yes, i agree, it does suck. i don't have a huge problem adding the ones that were cut except that it's not fair to people who actually read the rules and limited themselves to 15 nominations.

yeah, I guess if it doesn't exist then it should be taken off...
― musically, Wednesday, 13 January 2010 02:34 (fourteen years ago) link
My Baby Can't Stop EP has an Aeroplane Vocal Mix and an Aeroplane Dub Mix along with the Idjut Boys Remix and the Radio Edit and the Album Version so I would hazard that they are distinct things.

"my girls" not being on the trax list is hilarious
xp guys doesnt matter.....vote for one they all get counted as the same
― k3vin k., Wednesday, 13 January 2010 03:00 (fourteen years ago) link
xp: okay, I think that settles it. they should both be on the list
― pugwant (The Reverend), Wednesday, 13 January 2010 03:08 (fourteen years ago) link
hmm... the "my girls" thing is kinda annoying for those of us who just did a quick crtl-f of the nominations thread to see what had already been nominated.

I added Animal Collective - My Girls and Fever Ray - Keep The Streets Empty For Me, I don't want something popular to be left off on a technicality, in the future I'll make sure that the entire post is removed so people don't see it.
― musically, Wednesday, 13 January 2010 03:38 (fourteen years ago) link
and Lindstrøm & Christabelle - Real Life Is No Cool is 2010, true or false? All signs I am seeing point to 2010 release, not 2009...
― musically, Wednesday, 13 January 2010 03:45 (fourteen years ago) link
Correct. It was apparently available to a select few through Rough Trade in the last week or two of 2009, but it's official release wasn't until 2010.
― Alex in Montreal, Wednesday, 13 January 2010 03:49 (fourteen years ago) link

Hey, so noting that I've missed a lot of stuff—Last year, my top three were The OhSees, Black Mountain and Indian Jewelry. Since I love the new OhSees album, what else might I have missed that I'd really love off this list?
― Giorgio Marauder (I eat cannibals), Wednesday, 13 January 2010 06:26 (fourteen years ago) link
That Toro Y Moi album is 2010, btw. It leaked in December or something, but it's not official until Feb or so of this year.

I haven't started on tracks yet, but after thinking this wasn't a great year for my music listening, my longlist for albums is surprisingly long. Got it down to about 50 now, although some of these are still 'must check this out before submitting ballot' albums.

I asked this on the last thread, but I don't think it was answered. Are Desire - Desire and Desire - II the same album?
― Freddy 'The Wonder Chicken' (Gukbe), Wednesday, 13 January 2010 11:02 (fourteen years ago) link
You know, I was pretty sure The Blueprint 3 had been nominated too.
― Ismael Klata, Wednesday, 13 January 2010 11:04 (fourteen years ago) link
also, Fuck Buttons trax folk, what ya'll thinkin'? Lisbon Maru is probs my fav, but Surf Solar being the single and all...
― Freddy 'The Wonder Chicken' (Gukbe), Wednesday, 13 January 2010 11:05 (fourteen years ago) link
Agreed, I'd figure "Surf Solar" may get a much lower placing due to vote splitting (it has my vote, though -- can't do much more than that).
