there's hardly any rap which seems weird to me so I'm gonna bump the B-side of Queen Mother Rage's Vainglorious Law right now to see if it qualifies as well as I'd remember it - it's like a great lost X-clan album, sonically - fuck I love this record

also I'm asking the mods to auto-ban anybody who votes for the New Radicals

can i get a ruling on Fotheringay then?

Amazon editorial review:

2008 release of the long lost sophomore album from one of the great might-have-beens of British music. They lasted less than a year, and released just one album, but their disappearance robbed the early-'70s scene of a group of musicians capable of taking Folk-Rock to new heights of subtlety and musicianship. Sadly they broke up during the recording sessions for their second album. Incredibly all the tapes survived in various record company archives. 38 years later the surviving members of the group have mixed all the material to finally complete this remarkable album.

d/q'd

are all you guys being careful to only nominate albums you think totally fucking rule instead of just albums that people might possibly vote for because they fit the criterion

man i would've voted the shit out of Fotheringay :(

Temple of the Dog - Temple of the Dog

whoops xxpost

Son of Bazerk

UMCs

The Afros

what about bands that released NO albums lol - the Weirdos, the Screamers, etc

are all you guys being careful to only nominate albums you think totally fucking rule instead of just albums that people might possibly vote for because they fit the criterion

Do YOU see postal svc or dfa1979 on here?

I will go to bat for Mother Love Bone - Apple, though.

everything I've mentioend so far I think is genuinely great - maybe not BEST EVER but whatever, this is a narrow criteria

Frankie Lymon and the Teenagers - The Teenagers featuring Frankie Lymon

Son of Bazerk

DQ'ed! http://www.amazon.com/Well-Thawed-Out-Explicit/dp/B0042GFHRO

Psi Com - Psi Com

Some info on Lowell Davidson.

Not only was it his only record as a leader, he never even appeared on other records as a sideman.

NASA - Insha-Allah! (this one's for you, Ned and jjj)

teedra moses - complex simplicity
cassie - cassie

what about bands that released NO albums lol - the Weirdos, the Screamers, etc

such bands have nothing to do with this poll

can I add Wavepool Abortion? their album is coming out soon

I also nominated Never Mind The Bollocks, which if allowed (and I can't see why it wouldn't be, Swindle not being a proper album) will own this poll

are all you guys being careful to only nominate albums you think totally fucking rule

Refrained from nominating Julian Schnabel's OK Every Silver Lining Has A Cloud.

Randy Holden, Population II

I think Modern Lovers s/t should count because only David Robinson was on both albums with Jonathan. They lost two really important members!

I nominate Hexendanz, which I think is awesome even though no one has heard of it out of Alburtis, PA.

NASA - Insha-Allah! (this one's for you, Ned and jjj)

Too kind. But I don't think I ever heard the damn thing all the way through!

I think Fotheringay should count as well. It should be one album released in the artist's lifetime. That second album is really just some kind of compilation/odds and ends thing.

xp: WAHT

okay that will not do at all

I just remember that "Shah Shah" single...and not fondly. xp

I also nominate

Draytons Two - Raw Spouge

So psyched wikipedia has a spouge article now. It is probably the most informative thing on the internet about spouge.

Cannibal Ox, don't think the live album counts

you have not lived until you have heard "Magic Jewlled Limousine"

Rebecca Black

What about various combos of artists who did one album together? Like Eno & Cale, or Reed & Cale, or the Stills-Young band?

Weakling - Dead as Dreams

Wild Tchoupitoulas - S/T

yeah I already made that point

Yes you did. My bad. I should save my posting until the evenings when I don't have to sneak ILX reading/posting in between other chunks of work. :\

Erratum:

Unicorns released TWO albums - Who Will Cut Our Hair is the second. I know because I own both of them.

Nominations:

Mark Hollis - s/t
Sister Suvi - Now I Am Champion

Hackamore Brick - One Kiss Leads To Another

Eivets Rednow

lolwhat

Wild Tchoupitoulas - S/T

This is a great record. (I'm listening to The Wild Magnolias as I type...)

I think Modern Lovers s/t should count because only David Robinson was on both albums with Jonathan. They lost two really important members!

no

this is like nominating the Velvet Underground because Nico was only on the first album

unicorns kicked out btw per sean g's point

- velvet underground

Wild Tchoupitoulas - S/T

This is a great record.

Agree. I'll be voting for this if this ever ends up in a voting stage.

What about various combos of artists who did one album together? Like Eno & Cale, or Reed & Cale, or the Stills-Young band?

no. the idea is not to get as many names as possible. it's to poll albums by unique artistic entities who never recorded an album again. otherwise there's a trillion jazz combos that were never technically the same thing again, the Byrds probably'd qualify, etc etc.

Oh damn xp yr right abt unicrons :(((

like if you count engineers & sidemen as contributors, which is really a fair proposition to make, you could technically nominate every album ever made for this poll

Cowboys international - the original sin
