What is GAPDYX please?

rhythm fixated member (chap), Tuesday, 10 August 2010 21:09 (fifteen years ago)

it's an acronym for the hot critical darling bands of 2009:

Grizzly Bear
Animal Collective
Phoenix
Dirty Projectors
Yeah Yeah Yeahs
XX

it really has nothing to do with this poll

ryan pitchfork had all 6 in his P&J ballot iirc. ILXors got really pissed off with gapdy in every poll (they loved the xx)

too low fiends at the ready?

pfunkboy (Herman G. Neuname), Tuesday, 10 August 2010 21:14 (fifteen years ago)

Mentioning this list of worthies:
Grizzly Bear
Animal Collective
Phoenix
Dirty Projectors
Yeah Yeah Yeahs
XX

... in the same breath as a behemoth like Sabotage is heartbreaking.

pfunkboy (Herman G. Neuname), Tuesday, 10 August 2010 21:15 (fifteen years ago)

eh, legacy aside I am MUCH more likely to play YYYs or XX than Black Sabbath

the other 4 can go jump in a lake tho

TOO LOW!!!!!!!

as was discussed over in the "Modern Metal" thread or whatever it is called, it's a common theme that this album is hugely influential on all that came after.

^ do you have to put your balls in escrow somewhere before you listen to bands like that?

Nope! (You do for Animal Collective tho)

pfunkboy (Herman G. Neuname), Tuesday, 10 August 2010 21:30 (fifteen years ago)

Hello all. So, I see we have classic Sabbath and Motörhead records right here - did you decide to start with 1 and go up to 100? 'Cuz I could totally see these as 1 & 2, even if I didn't vote for either.

I voted for both Sabotage and Ace of Spades. Some discussion going on about them both here - What's the first modern metal album?

Fastnbulbous, Tuesday, 10 August 2010 21:31 (fifteen years ago)

SABOTAGE WAY TOO LOW although I didn't actually vote for it thinking about it, but I should have for side 1 alone.

pfunkboy (Herman G. Neuname), Tuesday, 10 August 2010 21:42 (fifteen years ago)

pfunkboy (Herman G. Neuname), Tuesday, 10 August 2010 21:48 (fifteen years ago)

pfunkboy (Herman G. Neuname), Tuesday, 10 August 2010 21:49 (fifteen years ago)
