Did you vote? Untrue was also my #1, but the scorecard says 1 #1 vote. Hmm ...Anyway, good to see it place so well.

I did vote! maybe they counted one of our ballots as unranked. If they did, correct ranking would have put it only one spot higher, so I guess it's no big deal

The best part about "In Rainbows" is still how Radiohead managed to commit what starting at a person napping sounds like to tape.

Lol Portishead. Maybe Fatboy Slim's comeback album will be no. 2 on the 2010-2014 list.
― JohnQuincyAdams, Wednesday, 14 July 2010 05:17 (thirteen years ago) link
a) Fatboy Slim never went away. He just released an album under a different name last year.b) Portishead and Norman Cook are alike in what way?c) Third is awesome. Eat a dick.
― Johnny Fever, Wednesday, 14 July 2010 05:18 (thirteen years ago) link
I will admit that Portishead has rather successfully bottled what being old and apparently infallible sounds like.

Norman Cook: DON'T CALL IT A COMEBACK

ol' norm already released an album w/ david byrne this year. just getting warmed up.

chances of that album placing in ILM's 2010 poll? 1,000:1
― Johnny Fever, Wednesday, 14 July 2010 05:44 (thirteen years ago) link
Opera is weird. There are a lot of things I love about it, but ultimately it annoys me. I love the way it scrolls though, it's so smooth.

This thread motivated me to finally check out Studio's West Coast. I'd hear Yearbook 1 before and had WC on my long list for aaaages, but so glad this prompted me to finally giving it a go. Loving it!

Finally bought a proper copy of New Amerykah Pt. 1 this week and have played it like a million times again and it really is the best sound.

are we doing this for 2010-14, we shd

We're not Pitchfork. We can at least wait till the year is over before we start thinking about something like this.
― MarkoP, Friday, 21 November 2014 21:44 (nine years ago) link
we should do it next summer

Though speaking of delayed polls, whatever happened to that Favorite Albums of All Time poll that was proposed?
― MarkoP, Friday, 21 November 2014 22:25 (nine years ago) link
It got cancelled in favour of that all time rock albums poll that ran a couple of months ago. It was a bit of a messy situation in the end.
― Kitchen Person, Friday, 21 November 2014 23:22 (nine years ago) link
are you referring to the classic rock tracks poll? i don't remember an "all time rock albums" poll. there's a thread for scheduling polls, anyhow.
― brimstead, Friday, 21 November 2014 23:36 (nine years ago) link
ILM Ballot Polls for 2014 and beyond -- order, timing, "I would have voted if I'd known about it," etc
all time poll,mid decade poll , decade polls and so on have to be booked on that thread.
― strychnine, Saturday, 22 November 2014 11:38 (nine years ago) link
so it will be the year 2025 when they get to runhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=izQB2-Kmiic

naw who gives a fuck about that thread we do the mid-decade poll midway through next year just like the last one in 2010

dont care i just wanted to post that vid as the punchline
― strychnine, Saturday, 22 November 2014 12:00 (nine years ago) link
We already have exceptions to the queue rule: EOY polls happen at the end of each year. If mid-decade polls are a thing that ILX "does", they should happen each year that's divisible by five imo.
― death in Skegness (seandalai), Saturday, 22 November 2014 12:27 (nine years ago) link
and all time polls?
― strychnine, Saturday, 22 November 2014 12:34 (nine years ago) link
should happen at the end of all time
― death in Skegness (seandalai), Saturday, 22 November 2014 13:58 (nine years ago) link
seems fair
