Another one from my album ballot, not sure if this is my favourite track on there but it's the one that first grabbed my attention. Didn't realise how much I missed this sort of sound in indie rock.

That Rolling Blackouts tune sounds like decent 3Ds album filler. Nothing wrong with that.
― EZ Snappin, Monday, 28 January 2019 16:52 (five years ago) link
Damning with faint praise for the 69th best track of the year though.
― Matt DC, Monday, 28 January 2019 16:55 (five years ago) link
rolling blackouts: thoroughly all right

68: Parquet Courts – “Total Football” – 173 points – 7 votesvideo
Can we talk about how awesome Parquet Courts are?
― Fuck the NRA (ulysses), Monday, 28 January 2019 16:57 (five years ago) link
Not sure what to make of that (RBCF) tbh. It's not unpleasant and has a hook but also doesn't seem that exceptional. Might just need more time. xps

The indie run seems more quarantined into a single patch on the list this year.
― Johnny Fever, Monday, 28 January 2019 16:58 (five years ago) link
my rbcf opinions are probably more scathing than most but i generally reserve my greatest ire for the indie that gets in instead of the indie i like. you do not need to hear my rbcf opinions
omg FUCK parquet courts

I don't really care about parquet courts but I like this song a lot

I think I do, imago.

laura jean track is wonderful and certainly my favorite new find so far. i was going to say it seems to end a bit too soon but it seems the edit in the video is quite a bit shorter than the full-length album version.
andrew wk is still like a novelty act to me. don't get it.
i find it funny that some ppl turn their noses up at freemasons-like sample-based disco revivals circa 2006 yet find this dj koze track compelling. not much to say about it.
mgmt track is all right tho i'm not sure there's much i'll want to revisit. nice video though.

"total football" at least better than that dance punk song they did this year ("wide awake??!?!?!" iirc)
― jolene club remix (BradNelson), Monday, 28 January 2019 16:59 (five years ago) link
lol yeah "wide awake" is terrible

oh and i def need to echo the sentiment that the image cards are outstanding, huge props to moka

I guarantee 12 hours from now in the rollout's off hours we'll hear them.

I was fairly indifferent to PQ until this year, I've come around to really liking both Wide Awake and Human Performance.
― Gavin, Leeds, Monday, 28 January 2019 17:02 (five years ago) link
I didn't vote so I've already waived my right to complain but not a single one of the tracks that made it so far is conceivably among the best of 2018.
― pomenitul, Monday, 28 January 2019 17:02 (five years ago) link
parquet courts track has brilliant intro, but goes swiftly downhill when the actual song gets going
― mfktz (Camaraderie at Arms Length), Monday, 28 January 2019 17:03 (five years ago) link
the real indie run is usually in the 20s or teens
― ciderpress, Monday, 28 January 2019 17:04 (five years ago) link
I only voted for one track because of how my listening was shaped last year. I like the rollout and listening to the breadth of people's interests. Except Parquet Courts. That song sucks.

I obvs know nothing. I have no clue whatsoever is even in the top 20 besides maybe "thank u, next." I was off the grid this year.

I like PQ, love them live, like WA in May/June, lost interest in replaying it.

as an avowed hater of contemporary indie rock:"total football" is listenable but nothing i would ever intentionally come back to.i just played "talking straight" twice and can't remember anything about it."when you die" is oddly mannered and okay i guess? MGMT not my cup of tea.
