So ilxor really loves Kaputt then,
― Van Horn Street, Thursday, 7 February 2013 00:25 (eleven years ago) link
unsurprisingly this was a very convincing victory
― christmas candy bar (al leong), Thursday, 7 February 2013 00:29 (eleven years ago) link
This is partly about audience splits I think - I'm betting that a large segment of voters were split not just between Silent Shout and Fever Ray but also those and Third, whereas as a general rule I suspect the kind of voter who would put Kaputt first was not troubled by the lure of any other option.

the famed "silent shout majority" as it were
― christmas candy bar (al leong), Thursday, 7 February 2013 00:38 (eleven years ago) link
on the other hand there are also possible errors in voting, in which some people may not have actually seen kaputt listed on the ballot.
― christmas candy bar (al leong), Thursday, 7 February 2013 00:39 (eleven years ago) link
or accidentally checked off 'the streets' and voted and then immediately cursed, realizing their error.
Streethawk, then Kaputt, then Rubies, Your Blues a distant 4th

never been curious to hear kaputt, maybe I will now

What! Lol. Ridiculous. Kaputt is 2000+late

FTR I think "Kaputt" is a great album but this poll is really about ILM taste factions not greatness.
― Tim F, Thursday, 7 February 2013 01:01 (eleven years ago) link
Oh this is great. Kaputt beat Fever Ray and Silent Shout combined. Haha. Probably a few spite-voters, then.
Btw I just heard about this book about life behind german lines in WW2 called Kaputt. Do you guys think the name of the record has anything to do with that? It would really bring something to the record, I think, this sense of the living in this world gone completely wrong.
― Frederik B, Thursday, 7 February 2013 01:03 (eleven years ago) link
hey guys I got this idea, and hear me out because I know there's gonna be some reactions from the tumblrsphere, but do you know what we gotta poll now? Destroyer vs. Weird Al Yankovic.

xp Yes, Frederik, the Malaparte novel is where the Destroyer alb title comes from

Thanks. Never knew that. Intriguing.
― Frederik B, Thursday, 7 February 2013 01:23 (eleven years ago) link
Maybe some people voted for it higher than they truly rate it in order to make a point.
― mookieproof, Thursday, 7 February 2013 01:38 (eleven years ago) link
detrimental to the legitimacy of the entire list

think we probably should run this vote on a weekly basis really. we're just not finding a clear mean accuracy as regards our views on albums of the last decade.
― Ballboy to Afghanistan (LocalGarda), Thursday, 7 February 2013 09:34 (eleven years ago) link
Separate up-or-down polls on each of the albums should give us more visibility into what's going on "in there". Weekly, I agree.
― Andrew Farrell, Thursday, 7 February 2013 09:41 (eleven years ago) link
might change my vote to kanye next week
― The Reverend, Thursday, 7 February 2013 09:46 (eleven years ago) link
if this poll were re-taken next week i'd pick Kaputt
― ❏❐❑❒ (gr8080), Thursday, 7 February 2013 10:03 (eleven years ago) link
plus it'd be nice if everyone could win even if only for one week xpost
― Ballboy to Afghanistan (LocalGarda), Thursday, 7 February 2013 10:03 (eleven years ago) link
each album should be polled against each of the others one at a time, twice, football league style.
― Jaap and roids (NickB), Thursday, 7 February 2013 10:13 (eleven years ago) link
we should all make shirts and flags to support the albums we are backing each week.
― Ballboy to Afghanistan (LocalGarda), Thursday, 7 February 2013 10:14 (eleven years ago) link
that would be 90 more polls in total i think xp

we could have former musicians live chatting about the polls as they happen, and watching individual polls, reporting the action to the fans.

voted kaputt for a laugh. paid in full.

throwing this out there, would there be any interest in a favourite poll of 2012 poll?
