here too, being that they're a GA band

Curt1s Stephens, Monday, 3 March 2008 02:37 (sixteen years ago) link

Yeah, I guess I meant the whole American South.

I think "The Past is a Grotesque Animal" is one of the best tracks on that album. It's the centerpiece. The record wouldn't be whole without it.

I also had the experience that maciej describes...couldn't see the appeal of that band until this album.

Thanks for putting this together, musically

Yeah, it seems this is the case with most people. It's just my own opinion..

how many votes were cast? 25 votes for number 1? should we even bother next year??

winston, Wednesday, 5 March 2008 03:49 (sixteen years ago) link

i mean, 25 votes!!! this poll tells us nothing about nothing

winston, Wednesday, 5 March 2008 03:50 (sixteen years ago) link

i think that means 25 people voted it as their number one, not that 25 people voted for it

BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Wednesday, 5 March 2008 04:19 (sixteen years ago) link

25 people voted for it. 2 people voted for it as their number one.

winston, no one's claiming that this poll includes a huge sample set or that this poll is anything resembling definitive. I don't know what you are expecting, but feel free to lower those expectations to a more reasonable level.

The Reverend, Wednesday, 5 March 2008 04:23 (sixteen years ago) link

aha

BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Wednesday, 5 March 2008 04:25 (sixteen years ago) link

If you look at the first post, it says there were 64 ballots cast, to answer that question.

The Reverend, Wednesday, 5 March 2008 04:26 (sixteen years ago) link

i know but it just seems like there have been way more ballots in the past

winston, Thursday, 6 March 2008 00:51 (sixteen years ago) link

not to mention blurbs

winston, Thursday, 6 March 2008 00:54 (sixteen years ago) link

looking back at the '05 poll; i guess nothing has changed in terms of # of ballots. i'll shut up now

winston, Thursday, 6 March 2008 00:59 (sixteen years ago) link

Fewer blurbs because I didn't have time to search ILX using the world's crappiest search function for 100+ choice quotes that may or may not even exist. And compared to just about every other poll this is Zogby stuff.

Listening to "Watch My Feet" right now and can't help but feel like it was really, really robbed in this thing. I don't think I voted for it, mind you, but...

Doctor Casino, Wednesday, 12 March 2008 02:48 (sixteen years ago) link

I wouldn't say it was really, really robbed considering that only like 4 rap songs even placed in this godforsaken poll.

Alex in Baltimore, Wednesday, 12 March 2008 02:57 (sixteen years ago) link

that song is aiiight

tremendoid, Wednesday, 12 March 2008 03:19 (sixteen years ago) link

Yes, it was very robbed.

The Reverend, Wednesday, 12 March 2008 15:08 (sixteen years ago) link

YA DIIIIIIIIIIIIG?

Doctor Casino, Wednesday, 12 March 2008 16:04 (sixteen years ago) link

three years pass...

2007 was the worst year in the history of popular music.

how was 2007 the worst year in the history popular music, when the best pop album of the decade was released that year?

prego, Wednesday, 21 September 2011 10:23 (twelve years ago) link

2007 was a'ight. I'm very impressed with 2011 as it happens.
