Kitchen Person, Klata, I and Jona are pretty much 100% responsible for all of this (Mansun/Suede/Earl Brutus art-Brit-glam fuckathon), and we're not apologising

Kool Kieth is beutiful. Black Elvis is brillant. Doctor Octogon is Afrofuturism and i always support that. I hate hiphop but KK is one of the few exceptions i make.

The Octagon Album is terrifyingly beautiful. Its on a totally different level to any other hip hop album I've heard. Check out those rhythms he uses in his raps.

The Dr. Octagonecologyst CD is tied with Enter the Wu-Tang as my favorite 90's hip-hop. Maybe that's a typical white-boy thing to say but fuck it. Anyone heard that Undatakerz thing yet?

Snappy vaginas and elastic penises are abound! Everyone should own Dr. Octagon, "Dr. Octagonecologyst" ! Kool Keith truly is the 'Black Elvis' !

Didn't vote for Dr Octagon but I do love it. That's pacified me slightly. Only slightly, mind.

No one ever talks about the beats on Dr. Octagon. It's Kut Masta Kurt right? That guy's awesome.

Does Geir vote in these lists? I guess we will know if Dodgy's The Dodgy album suddenly makes an appearance.
― Kitchen Person, Tuesday, 4 May 2010 20:38 (fourteen years ago) link
boo on you all for not helping me paint Dr. Octagon as Britpop in an attempt to get Geir to claim he loves it
― it means "EMOTIONAL"! (HI DERE), Tuesday, 4 May 2010 20:39 (fourteen years ago) link
Isn't this a tie with Suede for #34, though? (sorry, my ordered list ocd just kicked in.)

re:britpopI honestly thought the old poll used up all the britpop.

I've only had 1 album place so far (the Sun City Girls one I lavished 40 points on). But there's tons of good stuff so far and like so many ppl itt I'm picking up some promising electronic/ambient pointers.

Piss you, LJ, you are not putting Mansun and Suede and all the other crap in this poll and then abolishing Stereolab.
xpost wait, does that mean it's sort of okay again?
― emil.y, Tuesday, 4 May 2010 20:44 (fourteen years ago) link
Just scrap whatever is at number one? I won't tell anyone.

*Six vs DMS vs Dr Octagon, in fact, coz there's no strawman like indie hiphop!

Hahaha! Outstanding work, ringmaster!
Six is hardly britpop is it, other than that they were British and used guitars. It's not got much in common with Cast or Shed Seven at least. I went for it for its ambition above all, the polar opposite on this score at least of Oasis and the rest of the dadrock types.
Similarly with Dog Man Star, which is the high water mark of britpop, even though really it came out before britpop was a thing. It's a bit like Six in that they both start with a kind of powerpop(?) template but open out beyond it very quickly. With Suede at least the arrangements are always much lusher, so the opening out seems a bit more natural and less quirky than Six. It doesn't all work, but the half-dozen songs that do are magnificent things. Only Blur really occasionally get close.
There's still one other britpop era album I was hoping to see, but I suspect that might be yer lot, unless Geir does ride to the rescue after all.
