if anything i would have expected the results this year to be a little closer to the broader critical consensus than usual, as this year's critical consensus seemed particularly ilm-friendly

didn’t know mix cds were allowed, seems kinda quaint in 2020
― brimstead, Sunday, 26 January 2020 23:34 (four years ago) link
I guess I voted for a live mix but it’s all new songs by the same artist, whatever carry on
― brimstead, Sunday, 26 January 2020 23:35 (four years ago) link
These threads are roughly 1000x more interesting to me than whatever happens at the Grammies.

I think I naively assumed there were *generally* more track ballots than album ballots. (Likely because that's most often the case for individual artist polls.) I've learned something from the pretty graph.
Is the decline in the total ballots since 2013 vaguely in proportion to a decline in total unique posters over that period or something?
― Nag! Nag! Nag!, Sunday, 26 January 2020 23:54 (four years ago) link
My tracks ballot is bonkers. Glad to see the rollout will be probably in a similar vein.

77-61: oh cool so glad this made it, what a nice discovery
60-41: ah here are some things I voted for. TOO LOW
40-21: fuck you for liking this garbage
20-1: undeniable bangers

fun fact: this is the first year there were more tracks ballots than albums ballots
― seandalai, Sunday, January 26, 2020 2:53 PM (yesterday) bookmarkflaglink
I didn't get around to do a tracks ballot, so handed in a ballot consisting of one track. (should've added Dawson's 'Jogging' as a second but forgot). It's albums for me mostly, but stoked for the ~weird~ results!
― Le Bateau Ivre, Monday, 27 January 2020 08:30 (four years ago) link
aaaargh don't say that, could be the difference between 11th and 10th #gutted

also lol saer otm

Now I regret not doing the same.

I've great regret LJ, but to soften the blow, I think notorious whaaat-I-never-saw-the-voting-thread-that-hovered-on-new-answers-for-decades Dog Latin did vote this time? So 'Jogging' should be a lock for #10.
― Le Bateau Ivre, Monday, 27 January 2020 09:39 (four years ago) link
tbh I think it's higher but we'll wait to be surprised ;)

Weighted!
― Le Bateau Ivre, Monday, 27 January 2020 10:18 (four years ago) link
I thought I voted for "Jogging" but apparently I just made do with the LP alone in the end. Oh well. Having never declared that early intention out loud, I can still tell myself that I haven't let anyone down innit.
― Nag! Nag! Nag!, Monday, 27 January 2020 10:26 (four years ago) link
this is worse than the 2 of you who were all 'oh shit forgot lingua ignota' yesterday

What time does the rollout start?
― Tuomas, Monday, 27 January 2020 10:57 (four years ago) link
it's typically about 2 hours from now
"jogging" being top 10 is the sort of thing that feels just plausible enough for it to happen? i thought 2020 was generally not as well liked as peasant though so it would still be very surprising to me
― ufo, Monday, 27 January 2020 11:21 (four years ago) link
I don't like 2020 as much as Peasant but I certainly wish I'd voted for Jogging, as it's a stellar anthem.

It's getting a lot of points from our house and has quite a few fans elsewhere. It'll definitely make the 77. Have you heard Splendor & Misery yet btw? That's high on my decade list let alone 2016Yeah I've gone back through their catalog and listened to everything once, which is why I said on Twitter:FYI I think I am prepared to declare @clppng artists of the decade— DJP (@djperry1973) December 20, 2019

I listened to Addiction to Blood once or twice and liked it but wasn't taken with it like I was the second clipping. album, which I still consider just totally jaw-dropping and which easily makes any end-of-decade list of mine (& which I prob still under-rate tbh). I wonder if clipping. is just one of those bands where the first one you hear will always be your favourite

Then again, I skipped S&M for really dumb reasons so I'm willing to accept as just any gasfaces DJP or imago are making towards my general vicinity

willling to bet Jogging'll be top ten
― doorstep jetski (dog latin), Monday, 27 January 2020 11:58 (four years ago) link
I have no idea what "Jogging" is? Googling it doesn't help much either.

Hmm, looking at by tracks ballot, 12 of 25 do have lyrics, so maybe they are my thing after all?

'Jogging' is a little too… prosaic for my liking, and unintentionally makes me feel even more alienated from English culture. Nothing Important is the only Dawson I genuinely love (and 'Hob').

Lol this is why I never got into Nothjng Important (though I sometimes wonder if the title track had made tracks poll instead of Vile Stuff)
I don't remember if I voted for Jogging, but I think I might have

I wonder how the Sault vote held up. No mention of them here, but much excitement on dedicated thread. The potential for vote-splitting looked kinda extreme though.
