He will take the countdown to 61 this evening
glad to see some things I've voted for placing, even if they're TOO LOW!
Anakim was my #1, looks like my half-assed campaigning has won over one person, just enough to place, thank you Brad :)
SO MANY things I've never even heard of so far, meaning lots of things to check out
listening to Dreadnought right now, sounds cool
I was too lazy to cast another ballot, otherwise I would have included Big!Brave

It's a very good album, but I miss Josh writing heavy songs

i think this is their best record but it was not on my ballot for extramusical reasons :\

Wouldn't 've minded if this had went the Brand New route, ie not placing bcz Homme's a scumbag

Not a serious question; a joke about the bottomless lameness of Josh Homme.

70 Brutus - Burst 133.0 Points, 5 Voteshttp://www.allschools.de/pictures/cover/BRUTUS_-_Burst_400.jpghttps://open.spotify.com/album/68xOWoPQStCXdG7dk4Ubnb?si=67rU61DyRLuz6jZj7v-o0A
The moment album-opener “March” kicks in you get a sense of Brutus’ varied influences. It’s riff-driven, like a mixture of Every Time I Die and Japandroids, but it’s also fused with soaring, intense melody. Vocalist and drummer Stefanie Mannaert unleashes a flourish of borderline black metal blast beats while yelling out lyrics with feverish intensity. Vocally, Mannaert is raw and fierce without ever being caustic or violent. She doesn’t scream, but she reaches for notes with shouts that sometimes make it, and sometimes putter and crack. This is in no way a bad thing; in fact it adds to the band’s frantic nature. You sweat when you listen to this, and you bleed from every pore.

Seems I missed the second apology, googling now; the initial one was hella lame.

the last track on the progenie terrestre pura gets super wubbed out. it is incidentally the first time i've really loved a song on this record as opposed to moments

The Nortt is my favorite thing discovered from the campaign thread. I didn't vote for it, because it only really hit me this last week. Never went crazy for previous work by them. This one feels mature and focused.
