1980'S ROCK POLL ALBUMS/TRACKS VOTING THREAD. (Voting closes September 20) (all welcome to vote inc Lurkers)

So good: http://grooveshark.com/#!/album/Ragin+Full+On/268355

I think the last track is wrong, actually.

fIREHOSE are very underrated

more votes overnight apparently. Thanks!

So what are you guys going to campaign for?

we only have a couple of subscribers for the albums playlist http://open.spotify.com/user/pfunkboy/playlist/4mgtVe8Ccj0qC4K9zldY8D

please subscribe!

Subscribed, currently learning that I should have started listening to Die Kreuzen when I was 16 and never stopped

I would blame your brother.

btw I think we have 47 album ballots now. Who wants to help get it to 50?

Tom have you checked anything else out or plan on checking anything in particular out?

That Band of Susans album, which was alright, and then fIREHOSE, which was great, and then Damaged, which was fantastic. I started listening to Kollaps too.

There's 2 Band Of Susans albums and both are great. Later Black Flag is quite sludgy so I think you might dig that and the Melvins albums.

ok LOL @ this Die Kreuzen review

Band of Susans are probably the ultimate band that sounds right for me on paper but that somehow doesn't work for me at all in practice. Maybe I should start a thread.

Going back to Neubauten albums, it's very funny that Drawings of Patient OT is an option in this poll. Still sounds good though!

why is it odd? it's one of their best albums.

I need to give it a listen then.

why is it odd?

I just find it funny to think of Drawings of Patient OT as a balls-out hard-rockin' album. I do like it!

ARE YOU READY TO ROCK?

Lol, I ruined my joke by posting a version of the song that actually rocks much harder than the one on the album I was listening to.

YOU CAN'T STOP THE ROCK

this is pretty rockin

KORITFW

Holy Toy go hard, but let us return to the broken funk treasures of Drawings of OT:

Abfackeln!

^^^

actual rock music, b/c I've been listening to Zoogz Rift and This Heat all morning.

English translate: Scorch!

Let our souls be free of decay!
...free of fungus!
Wallowing in carrion
In carrion
Wallowing
Let our skulls be free of fungus!
...and if the city burns...
Yes... That's our torch...
Let's scorch our souls!
Let's scorch our souls!
Let's let our souls
Scorch!

Send "Abfackeln!" Ringtone to your Cell

Let our skulls be free of fungus!

^^^

OTM, would kill for this.

c'mon this rocks harder than a police truck full of sex crazed orcs

http://youtu.be/lzZMhAM2SqU

you have my condolences about the zoogz rift tho

I'll take those condolences if they include an icepick.

if you insist

http://youtu.be/lgvIbW9C12k

i'd have voted for holy toy.

is there some trick to c+p out of that google doc or is my computer just fucking up

actually a bit awed that ZR crushes myth of no wave being impervious to ruin.

xxp

submitted, having second thoughts (for instance, no die kreuzen, but i think i'm okay with it)

jjj it allowed me to C+P . highlight them all right click and select copy

did it work?

I imagine jjj still trying to get it to work for some reason.

into the last week of voting we go

Algerian-

to fill out the track playlist, I uploaded some local files, but I'm not sure if others can play them or not. Cop Shoot Cop were among the additions, if you could check. thx.

also, we have until the 27th for albums, right?

i'm glad you pointed that out, i'd assumed from the subject line that the whole thing closed on the 20th

No It might be the 20th it might be 24th 25th maybe 26th. It all depends on seandalai. It will not be as late as 27th.

but if I were you I'd assume both were finishing on the 20th just incase. I think its been a long enough time to vote and ballots are dropping off now.

hellhouse you seemed to remove stuff I added then added yourself. I cant see cop shoot cop.

wtf does that even mean, christ

I don't see any point in extending it and it just means more work for seandalai. better to get it all done and dusted so we can then look for album covers/spotify links.
I'm still not sure if Viceroy is going to be able to do the tracks rollout due to his work commitments.

If we get a long list as usual then I want to start the albums on fri night after the tracks finish. So I am not sure if the 27th gives seandalai enough time to run the results through. if he can assure us then the 27th might be on but I'd much prefer everyone got them in by the 20th just incase. Remember seandalai is a very busy guy.

ugh just pick a firm date and stick with. if an editor ever told me "it might be due the 13th, or maybe the 17th, we'll see" i would invariably managed to miss whatever the deadline turned out to be.

that is why i said everyone should just aim for the 20th for both. Everybody who has sent in a tracks ballot so far has voted for albums at the same time. There's been a few albums only ballots but no tracks only ones.
