Everybody I know can be POLLED here: The Spacemen 3, Spectrum, Spiritualized, and descendants poll thread (ILM Artist Poll Thread #57)

ballot sent

feel like i should vote for at least one track off of "phenomena 256" but i got no idea which one!

Any opinions on splitting up "Ecstasy Symphony" and "Transparent Radiation?" Have received ballots with both of them as one track (a la Perfect Prescription CD) and as separate tracks (like on the singles, etc.)

options:

1) add them all together

um, I think that's it.

i'm guessing those who chose the perfect prescription track are essentially voting for just "transparent radiation"?

forgot to vote for this (half-joking):

as sleeping signal suggests, i'd assume that all votes for "ecstasy symphony/transparent radiation" (or suchlike) are basically votes for the perfect prescription version of "transparent radiation". it at least makes sense to treat them as such. i think votes for "ecstasy symphony" as a stand-alone track, however, should be tallied separately. it runs nearly 10 minutes and has nothing at all to do with "transparent radiation".

86/87 spacemen 3 are the greatest band of all time

leaning toward an all-spacemen ballot

Five ballots in and everything is a surprise.

I have mine done, just gotta take one more look and send it

only 3 days to go and only 5 ballots?

for shame

I have a list just about ready to go. It will be all Spiritualized songs though. I like Spacemen 3 and have a few albums but it's Spiritualized that I love and know the songs of really well.

I find Dreamweapon very enervating, so I'm not sure you'll me my SPZ + Spacemen 2 ballot befouling the results.

I'll be submitting mine tomorrow.

The albums one was fairly straightfoward, just need to finalise the higher placings of the tracks one

the cutoff is the 21st. therefore, ballots are submitted on the 21st.

Yeah I don't like Dreamweapon either, didn't vote for it.

I really like Dreamweapon and have listened to it shitloads but I'm not sure it can find a place in my top 5

Culling the 20 tracks was particularly tricky as I've had to leave out plenty of favourites

Just saw this, can cook up a ballot so I'll do this tom morning.

i think im going to sit here and make myself do this.

mine is gong to be all Spiritualized, i fucking love Spacemen 3 but i have to listen and i can't do both bands tonight.

My response to the "all Spiritualized" posts better belongs in the irrationally angry thread, but I am doing my best to remain calm. And narrowing in on an all "O.D. Catastrophe" ballot.

I submitted a ballot that's heavy on anything made between 1987-1992.

yeah, i'm already rethinking my strategy, but i will miss so much Spacemen 3 without a recap. all ILM polls that i vote in, i go though that artist catalog, even if it is just skimming through some albums (Depeche Mode).

stocked for the madness

that $45 bud looks just about perfect.

i voted, had ballot regret, voted again

mine is gong to be all Spiritualized, i fucking love Spacemen 3 but i have to listen and i can't do both bands tonight.

You have to re-think your strategy.

Is this some sort of joke?

As I saw this late the only strategy was = re-listen to Perfect Prescription and put my fave tracks with those from Playing with Fire.

These days I am like LOL Spiritualized.

btw I am voting for this alternative version of How does it feel? but I suppose count it along withe the version officially released.

workin on it now

luckily i recently made a mix of my top 20 S3 songs for a friend so this is making narrowing shit down tremendously easier

after some last minute dumping of SPZ songs for S3 jams (in response to sentiments above), I have sent my ballot.

jammin'

Please keep the ballots coming!

ok just sent you another one

now i know why i don't vote in these things! who can make up their mind?!

I'll have mine in later today!

i tried not to vote for any covers and failed

Sent!!!

17 ballots in. Can we get at least 20?

Sent!

Going to roll this out in a couple of days... Will take last-minute ballots (still only have 17)

I've been waiting for this poll for ages ... but just saw this thread! I'll throw together a ballot right now.

Sent.

Another sent. 95% Spacemen 3 and Spiritualized. Now regretting submitting a ballot that reinforces my biases whilst expecting to get something new out of it.
