2/30

ALBUMS
Grass Widow - Internal Logic

that would be my full 30/30 btw

That should be: Massacooramaan. (Not trying to be annoying here, just trying to avoid any potential confusion later, as unlikely as that is to come up.)

And some of these late album nomination are catching my ear.

yeah, i'm short an "a"

If you had asked, someone would have loaned you one.

Goapele - Break of Dawn

This is from 2011, or else I'd probably vote for it too.

Here's the tracks spreadsheet (can a kind mod plz link it in the original post?): http://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AumbddEHET5xdDlQQm5TOVNIcWhQSE15Z0lpeDNhWVE

got it.

goapele album dropped very late '11; didn't hear it till very early 12
she has a deluxe version just dropped if that helps

she has a deluxe version just dropped if that helps

That's JUST the kind of loophole that will suffice. It's in!

I realize that contradicts my steadfast rule on reissues, but by reissues I generally mean things like the polished up versions of old albums. 2011 is not old.

Some things not so far included:

ALBUMS

Keiji Haino, Jim O'Rourke, Oren Ambarchi - Imikuzushi
Panabrite - Illumination
Sir Richard Bishop – Intermezzo
Geoff Barrow & Ben Salisbury - Drokk
Richard Youngs – Core To The Brave

5/15

is anybody spotifying this?

Tracks on spotify: http://open.spotify.com/user/mondosalvo/playlist/4EmfUgrRlPAEybUttQHgmw (collaborate playlist)

Rudipherous started an albums playlist somewhere in this thread.

Albums:

http://open.spotify.com/user/rudipherousoxide/playlist/2lotqpIvQSl3vL7Lt5KJ1A

Those might as well go into the OP too.

just added my available singles; is the album one non-collaborative?

hey whattayaknow, they're there already!

Just noticed my spotify url has "bUtt" in it.

non-nominated close call albums for me:

Van Halen - A Different Kind of Truth
Fucked Up - Year of the Tiger
Reggie Watts - A Live at Central Park
El P - Cancer 4 Cure
Die Roten Punkte - Kunst Rock

just added my available singles; is the album one non-collaborative?

My inner control freak took over. I've been keeping it pretty up to date though. Generally nothing sits around for more than twelve hours before being added. Typically it doesn't take that long. When I'm home I check this thread pretty compulsively.

Maybe I need to read some Kropotkin. :(
