Yeah, like 2 billion aint enough matches?

Tuomas makes Crystal Castles sound bloody amazing. But I fear i'd be just disappointed.

I fear you would.

if Crystal Castles chart and Late Of The Pier don't, then I'm sorry but something is rotten in the state of ILM and y'all have cloth ears

FYI there are 3 or 4 Adult. albums that pretty much fit Tuomas' description of CCs there, with the added bonus of being good

Late Of The Pier are obviously going to make this poll, stop whining.

eeh, CC have the higher profile anyway

i think the album is 2/3 great and 1/3 unlistenable shite

I always got the feeling the ILM LOTP following was stronger though. The crazy all-over-the-place nature of this list so far means the top 20 is going to be super-predictable.

I only listened to that Late of the Pier album once, but I thought it was HORRIBLE, even though I like that sort of thing.

The crazy all-over-the-place nature of this list so far means the top 20 is going to be super-predictable.

This at least is what I feel, although Musically protests otherwise.

LOTP album got better with every listen fwiw, it's ingeniously sequenced and an absolute blast from start to finish, with way more sophistication than you'd expect

I am listening to the Alex Moulton album now, having just seen the cover for the first time ... (i have images turned off here) ...

The Alex Moulton album is a REALLY good soundtrack for when you're watching a football match but don't care enough about it to listen to the commentary.

i completely forgot to listen to it

It's the one dance album of last year I think you'd really like. Big and bombastic and sci-fi.

Does that mean I'd like it too?

No wait, you've already called Lindstrom as mine

There is some craziness is in the top 20 but I don't want to oversell it...besides some omissions it's really the order that will surprise people...certain things will be a lot higher and certain things will not crack the top 5 as predicted by many people here, etc.

Musician and filmmaker Alex Moulton to release his debut artist album “Exodus” this summer on Expansion Team Records
“Exodus” is an epic sci-fi/fantasy concept album that falls between the classic synthesizer palette of Vangelis and the future disco of Daft Punk.

LJ - I think you'd like Lindstrom more than Alex Moulton although both might appeal in different ways. I'd say listen to the Lindstrom first though - it has three tracks and the first is half an hour long.

They're all ILX posts from g--ff c-nn-n.

It's not THAT much of a dance album - lots of live drums and slow tempos. It's er, kind of ripe, isn't it? Just got to Meridians, the danciest thing so far. Good stuff.

There's a lot more going in terms of notes on this than the Lindstrom (which is the same chord for the first nine minutes).

I like the Reinterpretations with Prins Thomas the most out of any of his stuff, that might be a kindof challopsy thing to say, I'm not sure.

there's a sweet spot right in the belly of Where You Go though. About the 14 minute mark.

Where is #20?

my guess is you will need to wait an hour

i'll miss all the fun

I thought you didn't like fun? ;)

didn't mean previous post to sound regretful

No internet at home steve?

Youtube-tactular (or something) of a couple records I actually know and think should get more of a chance to be heard - first, Solange:

and the boards of canada one:

The Malkmus album:

oh screw this, i am going to make a cup of tea. i might youtubez the reatard and los campesinos! after if i can be bothered.

OK, the beginning of the Alex Moulton is a bit deceptive. The middle section is much more up, and it's great. Had I heard it I would have voted for it.

rubbish

I only really like "Electric Feel"

i liked it more than i thought i would.

mgmt pushes buttons that would have made me like them sort by default 10 yrs ago. but at this point i think those buttons are worn out for me, i'd need chemical inducement to show any excitement. i don't mind them, they just, you know... hmm.

sort OF by default...

My friend went to high school in Memphis with the Andrew guy from MGMT, so I can't hate on them too hard because she says he's really nice...but I still only care about the three singles.

that album is weaksauce

Would be good if you had 5 "antivotes" that took AWAY 20, 15, 10, 5 and 1 points, tbh

ELECTRODRIBBLE!

YES OMG!

I mean, it'd make Musically's job harder, but it'd also make shit WAY less predictable

and funnier

thank fuck mgmt aren't any higher - that piece of shit album was top 10, top 5 like everywhere else. pushing it down to no 20 is a good achievement for ilm

Yeah, well with my little scheme in operation it'd have been *even* lower!

actually i'm being a bit unfair - mgmt themselves aren't actually offensively bad, just kinda boring and tedious and blah. what irks is how many people falling over themselves to praise it.

i think getting mgmt out of the way so 'early' is quite unpredictable. they had the most amount of singles place right (i guess maybe wayne/t.i. might have beaten them)? i thought it was a lock for top 10. glad it placed where it did though, and it wasn't pushed up higher by being the token #15 or whatever on more peoples lists.
