Been out all day, so miles behind but yay Pinegrove/FOB/TBS/Aereogramme. I forgot to nominate my favourite Saves the Day album (Can't Slow Down), so they didn't make it onto my ballot in the end. Pinegrove was my highest 21st Century entry (at #11). I totally didn't get it last year and then I saw them live and it's been on a loop ever since, I think it's pretty much perfect.

Sleep And Release was MY number one! Lovely synchronicity. Also voted for Rilo Kiley because tt p much made me (also played it for me and it was rly good & emotional)

among all the other reasons to thank this poll i have to give it credit for getting me into the blood brothers years after i dismissed them as not my thing

I'd argue it's one of the only great political albums to come out of the Bush administration. Absolutely brutal, incredible stuff

remarkable album, made my ballot

I've probably listened to Bivouac more than any other album I own.
― husked, tonal wails (irrational), Tuesday, 7 March 2017 22:53 (seven years ago) link
I think I listened to it when I was 14 and totally didn't get it at the time and have ignored it since. Favourite discovery of the rollout so far
― tangenttangent, Tuesday, 7 March 2017 22:59 (seven years ago) link
i need to listen to that, and 3 mile pilot, and pinegrove, and bedhead
― Lebro v. Wade (Spottie), Tuesday, 7 March 2017 23:03 (seven years ago) link
That Unwound record has never done a single thing for me, I've tried a handful of times over the years, cant find a way in.
Pinegrove was my highest 21st Century entry (at #11)
Self-edit. Obviously that's not true, I just forgot maths for a second. It is my favourite of this decade's emo releases though.
― tangenttangent, Tuesday, 7 March 2017 23:14 (seven years ago) link
Jawbreaker have been a band I'd basically avoided because of the name? Which was an error
― an uptempo Pop/Hip Hop mentality (imago), Tuesday, 7 March 2017 23:20 (seven years ago) link
'Fernandez Must Die' just started up on the Fireside album and me and imago looked up at each other which means 'omg'
― tangenttangent, Tuesday, 7 March 2017 23:37 (seven years ago) link
Wait you two are together? I'm confused
― Lebro v. Wade (Spottie), Tuesday, 7 March 2017 23:39 (seven years ago) link

we're charlton's very own ilx poll voting bloc. a formidable force
imago do you like three mile pilot
― gr8080, Tuesday, 7 March 2017 23:42 (seven years ago) link
never heard. we're going to get around to everything though!

they are like post-punk fairytale music

this thread will be some rich, rich pickings for music i never really got around to before and an incredibly valuable resource of emotional rock music
― an uptempo Pop/Hip Hop mentality (imago), Tuesday, 7 March 2017 23:43 (seven years ago) link
imago needs to hear Three Mile Pilot before he goes to sleep. Brilliant band.

My fave 3MP songhttps://youtu.be/KDnrSu-lju4
― Odysseus, Tuesday, 7 March 2017 23:48 (seven years ago) link
We have to listen to the entirety of every Dashboard release before that can happen.
― tangenttangent, Tuesday, 7 March 2017 23:49 (seven years ago) link
that's a mistake! Every 3MP release is awesome. and Black Heart Procession were damn brilliant too.
― Odysseus, Tuesday, 7 March 2017 23:50 (seven years ago) link
The 3MP song gr80 posted is great. Reminds me of Broken Social Scene a bit?
Loads on here to discover. Laughed seeing Bedhead placed, but thinking about it, it makes perfect sense to see it under the emo banner. Good work guys.
― Le Bateau Ivre, Tuesday, 7 March 2017 23:54 (seven years ago) link
I love that lj is going to be forced to sit through multiple (!) dashboard albums

i only know emo through a freshman year crash course amongst friends but
99. Elliott - False Cathedrals - massive album, "drive on to me" is a mfin ANTHEM, like caffeinated "don't stop believing". the follow up album song in the air is really good too.
