yeah what's dude like (feel like a douche but can't listen right now?) like is it... kelly polar style?
― nascar jesus (J0rdan S.), Tuesday, 10 February 2009 23:18 (fifteen years ago) link
like mental polyphonic ringtones
― Plaxico (I know, right?), Tuesday, 10 February 2009 23:20 (fifteen years ago) link
nothing like kelley polar. Tighter claustrophobic artificial thick, very XTC Scritti Politti vein of British hyper-pop
mental polyphonic ringtones sounds pretty dope
― nascar jesus (J0rdan S.), Tuesday, 10 February 2009 23:21 (fifteen years ago) link
Mastered By Guy at the Exchange is probably a better entryway, its a bit more varied.
― Plaxico (I know, right?), Tuesday, 10 February 2009 23:23 (fifteen years ago) link
I could see you totally liking this btw Jordan
perfect pop
Can I put in that there's probably no phrase that so greatly turns me off of wanting to hear something as this one?

Haha, mental polyphonic ringtones is a gr8 (and accurate) description.

this list is really bad so far

That hairy freckle character looks like Peter Gabriel dressed as a flower.
― Frank Sumatra (NickB), Tuesday, 10 February 2009 23:30 (fifteen years ago) link
ehhhh yeah the list has gone from "interestingly esoteric and bemusing" to just plain bad now. still, we're fairly low down, and the top half pretty much has to be better right now. heads will roll if jazmine doesn't get in though.
― lex pretend, Tuesday, 10 February 2009 23:31 (fifteen years ago) link
that video was dreadful. even more annoying than the stuff i heard years ago. and that was fucking annoying.
― Boring Sign In Name (Herman G. Neuname), Tuesday, 10 February 2009 23:32 (fifteen years ago) link
I have managed to vote for precisely none of these albumens so far. There's a couple I wouldn't mind checking out properly though.
― Frank Sumatra (NickB), Tuesday, 10 February 2009 23:33 (fifteen years ago) link
I think "Which Song" is my favorite off that record, and not quite as abrasive as will get fooled again (though still quite abrasive).
― Chesney Freemanwater Revival (maciej recognizing trill), Tuesday, 10 February 2009 23:34 (fifteen years ago) link
only one thing i voted for so far has charted (glass candy)
― tricky, Tuesday, 10 February 2009 23:35 (fifteen years ago) link
omg that max tundra track is TERRIBLE :o
expected it to be the same ol' same ol' senseless bleep blip blip idm as it was years ago but that was some rancid indiepop there. the opening line...i cannot bring myself to even type it out again but WTF no.
― lex pretend, Tuesday, 10 February 2009 23:35 (fifteen years ago) link
(was referring to 'will get fooled again')
Yeah, none of my votes have made it yet either, still don't think this is too bad a bottom of the list though. madxposts
― Chesney Freemanwater Revival (maciej recognizing trill), Tuesday, 10 February 2009 23:35 (fifteen years ago) link
what a bizarre sentence fragment.
anyway, i hope the top end of the list is filled with art-damaged electronics
xxp to myself
― tricky, Tuesday, 10 February 2009 23:37 (fifteen years ago) link
Only 2 of my chosen albums hae made it yet. Boris and Paavoharju .
― Boring Sign In Name (Herman G. Neuname), Tuesday, 10 February 2009 23:38 (fifteen years ago) link
i am definitely finding things that i would like to check out based on the list so far, but it just seems weird and not like ilm at all, which is probably a good thing
either that or i don't pay attention to enough of ilm (closer to the actual truth)
― tricky, Tuesday, 10 February 2009 23:40 (fifteen years ago) link
I won't be investigating the Max Tundra. That's for sure.
― Boring Sign In Name (Herman G. Neuname), Tuesday, 10 February 2009 23:45 (fifteen years ago) link
There are def a few things here (Moulton and Lissvik) that I wouldn't have even heard of if not for ILM threads this year. xpost
― Chesney Freemanwater Revival (maciej recognizing trill), Tuesday, 10 February 2009 23:46 (fifteen years ago) link
yup i heard of both of those because of ilm as well. i am def going to check the lissvik.
― tricky, Tuesday, 10 February 2009 23:50 (fifteen years ago) link
i like this list so far. very esoteric compared to the trax one, the only thing to actively dislike here are the p4k picks (hold steady, max tundra)
― all-seeing eye of horus (psychgawsple), Tuesday, 10 February 2009 23:50 (fifteen years ago) link
is tundra like crystal castles?

God no
― Plaxico (I know, right?), Tuesday, 10 February 2009 23:52 (fifteen years ago) link
ok cool
― nascar jesus (J0rdan S.), Tuesday, 10 February 2009 23:54 (fifteen years ago) link
Also Carlos Giffoni (can't rep for adult life enuff btw).
Agreed, it's his best stuff so far.
― ilxor, Wednesday, 11 February 2009 00:00 (fifteen years ago) link
weird, just realised that solange's album placed but her singles didn't. and beyoncé's singles placed, but tbh i don't expect her album to. that seems oddly...backwards to how it should be.
― lex pretend, Tuesday, February 10, 2009 2:24 PM (4 hours ago)
i was thinking this same thing! i was glad when solange placed but i thought 'uh, where was sandcastle disco?!'
and ya i'll stan for sasha fierce, as you and j0rdan said
― jammed hymen (k3vin k.), Wednesday, 11 February 2009 00:02 (fifteen years ago) link
solange's album is defintely better than beyonce's
― Pregnant M.I.A. (The Brainwasher), Wednesday, 11 February 2009 00:04 (fifteen years ago) link
and "Single Ladies" is better than "Sandcastle Disco"
― i and i overstand ilx bomboclaat formatting n ting (The Reverend), Wednesday, 11 February 2009 00:06 (fifteen years ago) link
haha you listened to jay reatard. lex you need a youtube channel where you film yourself listening to trendy indie music, would be like all the "2 girls 1 cup" reaction videos.
― nascar jesus (J0rdan S.), Tuesday, February 10, 2009 3:55 PM (3 hours ago)
haha i know right! im proud of lex for giving it a shot, but it's really not at all for him.
(that sounds a bit patronizing, like he doesnt 'get' it...that's not what i mean)

I found the girl on Google Image SearchShe was in the background of a picture of a churchI knew if we should get along as we were ableI shouldn't really bring her to the Seder table
I found the girl on eBayShe was bidding on Halfway To A ThreewayI wrote the words "a grain of sand" upon a grain of riceShe baked a pie of very shy laboratory mice
I found the girl on MySpaceIn her profile there was my faceI went into a corner shop and bought myself an edgeAnother shiny vector to add to my cortege
I found the girl on FriendsterWhere her taste in cinema defends herShe rescued me from vagary and indecisionBy telling me our future was the new religion
Na na na na na na na na na na na na naNa na na na na na na na na na na na naNa na na na na na na na na na na na na na naNa na na na na na na na na na na na na na na

That's brilliant lyrics. Any guy who writes about a girl bidding on 'Halfway to a Threeway' deserves to be listened to.

Hurrah!!!!! Earth!!!!!!!!!!Also on the metal list but is absolutely not a metal album.
EARTH - "THE BEES MADE HONEY IN THE LION'S SKULL"sunn90 CD&2XLPEarth's latest incarnation will be available FEBRUARY 2008. After refaceting some old gems for greater illumination on "Hibernaculum". The band returns once again to it's continuing evolution. Where "Hex" reveled in dark satanic twang and austere american beauty, "The Bees Made Honey In The Lion's Skull" finds Dylan Carlson and the band growing into a harder, more rock, american Gospel and impovisitory direction framed by truly psychedelic production and blazing guitar sounds.Earth shows it's affinity with a nod to the best elements of the more adventurous San Francisco bands of the late 60's and 70's, and the more spiritually aware and exciting forms of Jazz-Rock from the same era. This is no nostalgia trip but a thoroughly inspired and original metamorphosis. Earth is also very honored to be joined on this record for three songs by legendary and virtuoso guitarist BILL FRISELL (doing some of his most fuzzed out playing in years!) .Bill Frisell adds a brilliant texture and counterpoint to the scintillating and inspired riffs of Dylan Carlson and the band. Adrienne Davies joins again on drums lending a classic and steady feel to the proceedings. Steve Moore also returns adding heavy hammond organ and his intense jazz inspired piano playing. Live Bassist Don McGreevy also makes his full length Earth debut on this record.Earth will begin touring throughout the world when the album is released, Australia, Europe and a full US campaign and on from there. The new songs are equally compelling live where EARTH takes the vehicles and expand and explore them for further musical and meditative exploration. Enjoy "The Bees Made Honey In The Lion's Skull"."From Strength, sweetness. From darkness, Light, The bees made honey in the Lion's Skull"1. Omens And Portents I : The Driver (mp3)2. Rise To Glory3.
